  3. Either country (Iraq or Ukraine) should NOT have $225M. USA needs it to pay interest for our National debt! We have over 10 million Illegals to feed & take care of. Biden CAN'T have both ways.

  7. A tell that he’s working on one cylinder: when he says “Iraq” he’s completely unaware of the gaffe, hence no effort to correct himself. No way he makes it to November.

  11. Over 36 Trillion dollars of unsustainable debt and he continues to give away money we don’t have. 😢. Economic collapse countdown.

  15. Satan in the flesh. At first they said that about Obama, but now I believe Obama was ushering in his fall guy. We know Joe ain't running anything.

  17. Best way was to stay ENERGY INDEPENDENCE! The other way was to keep the same sanctions on IRAN! SLEEPY has always been a SUPER dim wit and these WARS started on HIS watch. Duh

  35. Remember when Democraps whined about the unaffordable cost of a $4 billion dollar border wall? They've flushed more than FIFTY TIMES AS MUCH down the toilet in just three years in Ukraine.

  40. Joe Biden is giving money to Iraq? Not one reporter questioned that statement, just tells you they are not reporters, they are Democrat paid propagandist…
