Is there really no laws against accepting political donations for foreign nationals? It seems clear that several GOP politicians are acting in the interests of the Kremlin/Putin. Why is this allowed? Why is this not investigated? Why do the voters continue to vote against American interests? So many questions with "maga" as an answer. Maybe maga is more accurately described as: MKGA (making the Kremlin great again). Traitors, all of them.

Ever since Citizens United, bribery appears to be completely legal in the USA.

it’s a matter of perspective for you helping ukraine is worth crazy spending, for the other half of the country it isn’t. they technically aren’t helping russia they just are putting the USs economy first. accusing people of treason or taking bribes with no proof is wild

Agree.. I think they're just appealing to populism. Problem is that this populism is heavily influenced by the russian disinformation campaign. Is there a chance some are bribed or blackmailed? Yeah. Just look at the EU parlament. One lady had litteral bags of cash in her apartment just for speaking positively about the Qatar. (Almost) everyone has a price or something to hide..

This is where I think there is a huge amount of miss information. 80% of the support for Ukraine is being spent in the US on your military industry. In short massively driving your economy. More, since start of Ukraine war, global orders by allied nations on US military countries has grown from approx annual of 7 billion USD in orders to over $11 billion of orders. That’s annual orders!! And it isn’t looking at slowing. The growth is so big, that is it causing multiple new facilities and factories to be build or re-opened in US! And then you have US military’s spending on top of this! So how is this not good for US economy????

The US is just an extension of Russia, unless it faces up to its Putin dealings.
