      Wait…

      You think the 15 billion Biden wants Israel to have is coming out of the defense budget?!

      You think any of the billions we give them annually is being taken away from the DoD?

      Ludacris.

      The military budget isn’t paying for that.

      It’s getting added to our debt, which will then prevent moderates and Republicans from supporting shit like universal healthcare or tax cuts to the least wealthy

      Gotta say, didn’t think I’d have to break that down. Thought everyone in a political sub would understand
