The author claims that Democrat Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said that if the Senate’s current U.S. “border security” legislation doesn’t pass, then “we could be fighting in eastern Europe, in a NATO ally in a few years.” Schumer seems to think American troops will be in Ukraine or nearby points fighting Russia. Next, the author talks about the lack of funds going to the U.S. for border security, with Schumer stating that the U.S. would be fighting Russia and the Middle East if the bill fails to pass. The author argues that the money should be spent on the U.S. rather than Israel and Ukraine. Instead, Schumer believes that the money should be allocated to those countries for their defense. He claims that too many Republicans, including Speaker Johnson, are just scared of Donald Trump and suggests that the only reason anyone could oppose the bill is because of Trump. Republican Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna proposed a bill in response to Schumer’s apparent threats, requiring any politician advocating for sending American troops to Ukraine to fight on the front lines with them. The article concludes by mentioning that the bill’s chances of survival remain in doubt.
