The USA historically has played a role of encouraging and fostering democracies around the world and in that role, we have assumed a financial responsibility for political stability around the world. Much to the consternation of some of our allies, President Trump took quite dramatic steps to change the dynamic and require foreign governments to bear their share of the financial burden for protecting their countries, which I fully support. The USA is perceived as the great moderator and facilitator of peace, which I support, but I don’t believe it is our responsibility to be the world’s wallet. In many ways, the USA is the only country that can provide a platform for resolution of many the world’s disagreements (such as in North Korea,), but it doesn’t follow that we have to pay for them.
I 100% support Israel and pray for peace in the Middle East including in Iran. Citizens of these war and oppressive regimes, envy and yearn for our freedoms and peaceful society. With the discovery and development of natural gas reserves in the USA, we were able to provide energy dependent countries with alternative options that would change the balance of power in many regions. Under Biden and the Democrats with support of Representatives like Soto, We went from Energy independent, to being Energy dependent on other countries (many not necessarily our friends).
