The House just passed an $840 billion defense bill, supposedly to ensure our national security. But economic security IS national security and most Americans are not economically secure. Where’s the $840B for that?

see what Howard Zinn said about defining security not in the terms of the deep state or military but human needs

If you had any courage at all you would run as an Independent. Otherwise you are a coward and as useless as Trump and Biden.

#PedoPeter was apparently told the goal of our military spending is regime change in Russia. The real goal is likely perpetual warfare to accelerate the transfer of wealth from Americans to the military industrial complex. The outcome may be nuclear annihilation of our country.

I am just coming to the conclusion that they are building up this army to fight Americans. Because they keep saying National Security. While more and more working families end up under crumbling bridges... Who is being secured? Sure as hell isn't us...

This is insane! Where are the Democrats? Why aren't they fighting this madness? Why do we need almost a trillion dollars for defense when we could obliterate the whole world many time over? Our Congress is so out of touch with what's happening in America and around the world.

It's full of fat in the form of Amendments - more than 40 Amendments were submitted, many passed. Congress won't talk about all the fat they put into it and no one is going to ask! That's a system that HAS TO END!!
