Our country seems to have plenty of money yo give hundreds of billions to foreign nations year after year after year AND plenty of money to take in 2-3 million of the world's needy and greedy citizens every year and spend hundreds of billions of dollars annually giving them free everything. So, of course, if our politicians are going to curb ANY spending, it is going to be spending on our own citizens, NOT EVER curbing the billions given to foreigners, something no American gets any benefits from. After the last CA caravan of thousands arrived, the president made some kind of deal with Mexico to keep these people there until US authorities could hear their asylum claims. Wasn't long before I read that the US had given over $10 BILLION to Mexico (got half) and the 3 CA nations to use to improve their economies so their citizens will not come to the US. Unbelievable how stupid, reckless, and easily manipulated our nation has become. But, I quickly realized Mexico had, once again, exploited the US for its own gain, and, this time, got some money for its CA buddies. Now, we have a new caravan of thousands almost here.
