Enough With Ukraine Already

Joe Biden visiting his emotional support animal, the president of Ukraine.

I suppose we keep giving money and weapons to Ukraine because we are afraid Vladimir Putin will nuke the world so we want to help the war come to an end, and by "we" I mean Joe Biden and his behind-the-scenes handlers. I am not included in that "we." I am part of the "we" that wants the aid to stop and to tell Ukraine to go fight their own war and leave us alone, we've got our own problems. 

For example, Nike pays basketball players millions of dollars to wear their shoes during games. They also give money to the schools where the games are played. But nobody is giving any money to the residents of East Palestine, Ohio who have nowhere to live, no water to drink, etc., etc., since a train derailed outside their town a few weeks ago and a resulting fire released toxic chemicals into the surrounding area. Fast forward five years when all the residents will have cancer, since none of them can move away because nobody will buy their homes, ever. (Biden went to Ukraine but still has not gone to East Palestine, Ohio.)

But 5'10" tall college freshman Flau'jae Johnson, who is a guard on the basketball team of Louisiana State University (LSU), is very, very rich today because she wears Pumas on her two gigantic feet. So you see, we've got our own problems. Enough with Ukraine already.
