    Our troops put their lives on the line to defend this country – to defend us while we sleep safely in our beds at night. The least we can do for them in return is to give them the resources they need to succeed in that mission.

        I think I speak for many Americans when I say we need to bring our boys home. Stop asking for more and more money and start finding ways to save us the tax payers some money. We're 20 trillion in debt. #stopthespending

        That's all fine and dandy while they are on that mission, what about when they come back and destroy their families due to PTSD drug addiction is that included in your budget before you choose to go to Wars

        Dr Abraham, the US spends more on our bloated military budget than the next twelve countries combined. On the other hand, we deserve a budget that pays for universal child care, universal college, and Medicare for All. It's time to put on your big boy pants & do the right thing.

        Where the heck do you get off saying our military is neglected? Where do you get of insinuating that they're underfunded? Do you, Rep. Abraham, think that we are stupid or illiterate? The US military budget is, by and far, the largest in the world. We spend nearly $600 billion

        Replying to @fauvertwin1 @RepAbraham

        Our military spending accounts for 54 percent of all federal discretionary spending. Since you're clearly no math expert, congressman, that's more than half of our discretionary budget. More than China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, France, the Uk, India, and Germany combined!

        I repeat my questions congressman, do you think we're stupid? That we can't read? That we would fall for this stupid fictitious talking point that you and your kind keep trotting out. We just found out about the Pentagon "losing" $800 million, Congressman! Come on.
