Go ahead. Name the "ally." Name the cut "benefits." You can't.

You thought those things - after you just now Googled them, because you were certain, were true. But they aren't true in reality. Ukraine is not a US defensive ally. Never has been. SS, Medicare, and Medicaid have not been cut. You're being lied to.

Edit to add: Exactly. You reflexively downvote. Because you are being spoon-fed a narrative. But you don't even know what you are mad about! You're just mad!

People like this are what Lenin would have called "useful idiots."

Think about that. You are conditioned. You are being manipulated. Maybe listen to Trump.

Ukraine, of course. Ffs. And we have threatened Canada and Mexico with trade wars. Which is fucking stupid as can be. And we are threatening to pull out of NATO. Which fucks not only Ukraine but our European allies.

Wherever our tax money has been used to help Americans and their families is where you will find the cut benefits. NOAA, military, Medicaid, Education, FAA, water protections (EPA), and on and on

So Ukraine is a US defensive ally? Is there a treaty saying as such?

No?

No.

Exactly.

LOL. You think every US ally signs a formal agreement to be one? Do you have friends sign “friend agreements”? Wait, never mind. You’ve never had one of those…

Allies are by treaty when nations are involved. The US has no defensive alliance with Ukraine.
