U.S. Customs and Border Protection is warning agents to look out for explosive devices after the Mexican military seized 10 IEDs following a cartel gunfight on the Arizona border.

Exactly why the aid should be tied to Ukraine. We have an obligation to defend our country first. Why are the Democrats so reluctant to defend our own border?

    At the same time, it is ludicrous to even put border patrol and military equipment exports in the same place, as you said it yourself: the military isn’t in charge of the border.

    I disagree. Democrats do this all the time as well. Sometimes you have to put up a roadblock to get things done. Do the Democrats want to hate America or give Ukraine money more?

      Let’s flip that on its head:

      Do Republicans like squandering geopolitical wins for the US over things that are a mild problem at best? Kneecapping an explicitly hostile power (y’know, the one that put bounties on US soldier’s heads and works with Iran) for a pittance (relatively speaking) seems like a pretty easy choice.
