Ukraine….what’s our endgame here

[noble cane]

The federal government has no constitutional mandate for disaster recovery. It does have a constitutional mandate for national defense, and the war in Ukraine has broad reaching implications related to our defense.

Wow.. suddenly Aston is a strict Constitutionslist..

Depends on what you mean by strict? I believe in the ideals and the intent of the constitution.

I’m not saying that we shouldn’t have the feds provided disaster relief as I believe in the benefits of broad federalism, but I also don’t think that those extra, inferred powers only referred to as “promoting the general welfare” should supersede enumerated responsibilities in terms of priority.
