The only way to achieve your goal, which I share, is to limit government to the authority granted it by the Constitution. Particular attention should be paid to the 10th Amendment. If Congress is limited, as is required by the Constitution, it would do very little and there would be no influence for donors to purchase. There is no other way to remove the money and corruption from our government

My problem is of the 195 countries in the world why does 1 who isn't even sn Ally as defined to the U.S allowed in Lehmans terms to run our Government. People may think that I am crazy but I am willing to bet that Israel has more power than the President. It's obvious that Biden is extremely ill, however he's always been a racist and easily the worst President of my lifetime, but I believe had it not been for the influence Israel has on our elections and policy the Russia v.s U.SKraine war would have never happened. There are too many ties to Ukraine and Israel to Blinken and Victoria Nuland it's impossible not to ignore. Trump in 4 years completely screwed up there plans. Netanyahu's or whomsoever is in charge of Israels life goal isvwar with Iran but there Military is a joke. Saying 2 Battaglia left of Hamas? Ok, Hamas has 0 Fighting Force. Regardless I what anyone thinks I'm spitting facts. Al-Quassam, Seria al Quds PFLP, Islamic Jihad etc, I can tell you that not 1 of those groups are close to, "being destroyed." Its apparent people who do not belong in Government like Lindsay Graham who is easily drunk more tha sober whe the extreme limited time the Senate is suppose to be in D.C. has anyone ever heard him cheerlead for anything but war? No. Id rather be a Country not two of middle class hard working Americans and legal immigrants than a country who only doesn't consider 1 Country/Israel interfering with every election probably since the early 1960's why? Allies must fit a specific purpose to be allies with a Country. If the U.S does a,b, and c for said country its responsibility is to reciprocate the act done for us. We have been attached by Israel 1 time without a doubt USS Liberty, there is a substantial amount of evidence that they weren't involved if not aware of the attack we suffer and were reminded of 5 times a day post 10/7, and the most day Weapons in the world are Nuclear. How is it that its out in the open that Israel illegally possesses them? Where did they get them? They stole the ingredient and methods of how to produce the weapons from the U.S. I know that people have already said Israel didn't have and to do with the Terrorist Attacks in Russia recently, I beg to differ. Its widely known that when a Country becomes desperate they always tend to terrorize and kill Civilians. In the 30 plus years of my life I have never heard a military say that a Poll said that We (Israel) has been voting the safest Military when it comes to Civilian Casualties in all wars of the past? Russia and Ukraine are 2 1/2 years into there conflict and I am well aware of the Truth not what State Department Spokesperson Matt Millee, Patel, and the biggest liar of them all Antony Blinken say, Israel has killed 5× the Civilians in 9 months than the Russia/Ukraine War, and don't believe the nonsense that these Beauracrats constantly say that Putin is evil, no U.S Government is Evil our tax dollars are going to a few remaining Neo-Nazi Regimes in Ukraine Azov Batallion, Kraken? If you read history had it not been for Russia our Ally in WW2 that Joe Biden had the ? In his pants to make a speech about Russian Agression? 102 year old Men who were at Normandy were looking at you Biden like what is he talking about? We defeated fascism, yes we had heroes in there teens, never forget Russia lost 27,000,000 Civilians alone Fighting Germany. Sou Congress who cheer and wave Ukrainian Flags you deserve to be removed asap and I will never forget the Female Cheerleader who probably was never so happy in her life.
