The message is the America isn't the world's piggy bank and it's time they all start paying their own way. The message is that Europe should quit buying Russian energy if they are serious about this minor regional conflict between two equally corrupt governments. That if they want to rally behind the French and go fight Russia they can do it without us. That the children in my neighborhood aren't going to go die for Ukraine. But their foreign legion is taking all comers, so are you packed up for tonight or nah?

I get it. You don’t care because you ignore history and today’s reality. So now it’s about money is it?

Ever consider why the us defense budget and us deficit exploded during the eighties and into the 1990,s?

The Cold War cost this nation between 8 and 12 trillion dollars to stay ahead of putins Soviet Union.

And you want to go back to that? Come now.

Stopping Russian aggression now. In Ukraine saves the us money and saves the lives of us military personnel. I will ask again as you failed to answer.

Explain in detail how pausing aid to Ukraine and suspending cyber attacks on Russia will send a message to Putin that he should withdraw troops from Russia and seek peace
