Letter: Instead of Ukraine aid, fund many U.S. needs
I find it baffling that some in our country continue to believe that Ukraine is fighting for democracy. Its government is corrupt and more like a totalitarian government. Its leadership has no intention of embracing democracy.
We have sent that country more than $200 billion in aid to assist them in paying their civil servants and securing their borders; all the while, our border is wide open to illegal immigrants, with fentanyl killing our people.
We need to take care of our country before we help another country.
