Congress spends 40 times more on foreign aid than border security

[pipedreams]

"While Democrats and Republicans battle over funding for the border, there’s one thing they can agree on — sending that money to other countries.

One America’s Pearson Sharp explains how Congress has approved 40 times more on foreign aid than for protecting the U.S. border."

If we stop giving money to other countries and stop funding illegals already in this country. We would be a very rich country with no debt.

It is called Foreign Bribes, it needs to stop.  We have a big enough stick, we don't need to hand out carrots.

Congress, tries its best to be sneaky.  They know it would infuriate the public if the kept voting themselves pay raises, so they vote themselves Cost of Living Allowances (COLA), which means the same thing, they just base it on Washington D.C. locality pay going up for themselves in Congress.  And now you know the rest of the story.  Good day.

And we keep voting them in. ANYONE in Congress, regardless of Party, should not be in the senate more than one term or the house more than two terms. There should be no pension nor an health care program soecific to Congress.

They vote their pay raises to be automatic....unless voted down in the year of the raise.

so they can campaign on not having voted for their own raise while not voting against their own automatic raise
