This is a sad day when Democrats in Congress block aid for Israel and Ukraine, sacrificing it to their need to facilitate sky-high levels of illegal immigration to the US.
Lowering the rates of illegal immigration has broad, bipartisan support among voters. So does military support for Ukraine and Israel. But Democrats choose to disregard the voters’ wishes on the altar of their single-minded obsession with eliminating national borders.
I think the aid will eventually be approved, but man I feel sorry for Ukrainians. They’re really not getting the unwavering support needed to defeat the Russians; this after the US and Europe blocked earlier possibilities for ending the war while Ukraine had the upper hand. Now I’m not sure what’s going to happen to Ukraine, it seems Russia has managed to keep their economy in place and it’s nowhere near collapsing and the Western world on the other hand is as divided as ever; if this keeps going this way, Putin will be proven right. Ugh, hoping this is just a temporary low.
Clarissa, at this point, do you think Ukraine still has any chance of taking back its territory?

Yes, but the question arises: then what? In 3 years Russia will be invading Estonia. What will we all do then? There needs to be a long-term plan for a new international security order. People keep wanting to return to February 23, 2022 and October 6, 2023. But that’s not possible. The world has changed. The global order cracked and a new one is forming. We all need to take our heads out of the sand and look at reality. This is a huge transformation, and it cannot be addressed situationally.
