The money spent on Ukraine would have built the Southern Wall 4 times.

WE own all of our border, regardless of whose land it crosses.

False. "One third of the land is owned by the federal government or by Native American tribes. 13 States and private property owners own the rest."


The federal government has no right to build on land owned by tribes, states, or private property owners.

Are all of your tunnels still operational?

This is irrelevant. We can't eliminate the ones we haven't found yet.

In 2020, officials discovered one that was 4,309 feet long! It had a lift, rail track, drainage, air ventilation systems, and high voltage cables...


Knowing that they've been built almost a mile long, only a fool would imagine that we've found them all.

Not to mention the simple facts that the barriers were easily circumvented. You've seen the article about the break in the fence that they were just walking around? And the articles about coyotes loading them up on boats and just going around the border in the ocean?

Why do YOU feel that America requires Ukraine to survive?

Are you familiar with BRICS? Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, UAE, and Saudi Arabia have been working together to replace the USD as the new global currency. They are specifically targeting us, stating that their purpose is to "bring together the world's most important developing countries to challenge the political and economic power of the wealthier nations of North America and Western Europe."


If Russia gets Ukraine, they get an estimated 9 billion tonnes of oil equivalent.

The US is currently the top producer of oil in the world, followed by Saudi Arabia. But if Russia gets Ukraine then they will become the top producer in the world.


Russia with Ukraine, Saudi, China, Brazil, and UAE working together means that they control almost half of the oil in the world.

And at that point... BRICS wins. We lose. There's just no way to win against an alliance that controls the oil.

Trump arrived in Newport Beach, California, on Saturday for a rally hosted by a health insurance entrepreneur, John Word, and his wife, Kimberly, according to CBS News.

Tickets for the event reportedly ranged from $3,300 for the lunch reception, and $6,600 for each couple. For a photo opportunity, it was $35,000 or raising $75,000. For members of the roundtable host committee, it was $100,000 per person, according to the website for the Republican Party of Orange County.

The fundraiser at the Word's home in Newport Beach comes as the former president has been campaigning in California for the past several days. During a fundraiser on Thursday at the home of entrepreneur David Sacks in Silicon Valley, Trump raised $12 million.

"And 400000 Ukrainians might still be alive." And millions of Ukrainians would be living under an oppressive Russian dictatorship.

It is a Democrat priority to allow all these illegals to cross the border. Possibly votes

Hey antZtok, thank YOU ever so much for once again providing us with factoids set to argue your imagined points of contention.

YOU go, antZtok, our purveyor of questionable veracity !

You forget a few minor details... like that the US government only owns about 15-20% of the border, so we couldn't build a wall on 80-85% of it with any amount of money.

Or the fact that we have discovered over 100 tunnels going underneath the wall, making it irrelevant from the beginning.

Or the fact that if Russia takes Ukraine then it will literally be the end of the United States.
