Despite a looming government shutdown and not being able to fund our own government, Washington elites are focused on sending billions and billions of dollars to Ukraine.
I’ve said from the get-go I think this is a terrible mistake that we need to focus on our problems right here at home. And I’m pretty sure our $33 trillion national debt proves that point.
We must stop borrowing money from our greatest adversary, China, to send to Ukraine.
Friend, I’m counting on the liberty movement to stand behind me in this critical fight, not just for our sake but for our children's and grandchildren’s sake. Because they’re the ones footing the bill for the war in Ukraine.

Friend,
No matter how sympathetic we are to the Ukrainian people, my oath of office requires me to put the American people first. That’s why I’ve consistently said we need to stop sending aid to Ukraine.
Our national debt just surpassed $33 TRILLION, with $1.5 trillion in spending from this year alone. We simply don’t have the money to keep sending aid package after aid package overseas.
Friend, we’re literally borrowing money from China to send to Ukraine. At what point does this stop?
We don’t even have a rainy day fund for our nation, let alone other countries. It’s irresponsible to think about other countries before we think about ourselves.
Right now, I’m fighting to fund OUR government before we fund other governments.
