Man if only there wasn’t an environmental disaster in Ohio.

[beefree]

When is his surprise visit to Ohio and the southern border? He should just stay there.

[edgarwatts]

Can someone tell Joe to take care of the invasion at his border.

[jimeagle]

Another blank check for Ukraine.
$0 for Ohio

The wire didnt go through so he stopped in to grab a paper check

[andercoyote]

YES! President Joe Biden doing the job! Thank you sir. Happy Presidents Day everybody

[Lawlzinator]

So, he can't be bothered to go to OHIO after the rail disaster, and denied FEMA assistance for the citizens, but he can go to UKRAINE, for what?!?!?! Making sure that the money he's sending is getting laundered correctly!

[Julio-vkoq]

All of this while ignoring the American people of Ohio.

[marta_]

difficult times call for decisive action.
Bravo Mr President!

[playdiscgolf]

What about Ohio and the downriver states that will suffer because of government negligence?

[susanforcier]

How many billions did he hand over this time. What about Ohio?

Imagine if Biden spent this much time caring about our own borders an sovereignty.

[mikerieck]

I'm sure it was a surprise for Biden as he doesn't know where he is 90% of the time.

[FenderBender]

I'm glad all my tax money is going to Ukraine and not to fix the chemical spill in Ohio.

[jeraldkozey]

Hopefully they were discussing the long range weapons and fighter jets being delivered to Ukraine. Biden's unannounced visit is a strong message and I hope that it will push our politicians to finally agree on this important military aid!

[troycote]

Gotta make sure all the money they're funneling to each other is good, who cares about the town in Ohio's doing!

[Cmack]

reporter: Mr President, when are you going to visitor Palestine?

Biden: After I Ukraine, I’ll swing down and pay a visit to my old friend from law school Mahmoud Abbas and remember the good old days fighting side by side in the fox holes against the Israelis

Reporter: sir, I mean Palestein Ohio.

Biden: c’mon man I’ve got more important things to do, they also need money for their fight against white supremacy, oh have you tried Middle East chocolate ice cream, you know it doesn’t melt? Cause I eat it so fast

[melidareichert]

Every country has to support our military help and also join into.

[channybsmith]

America last. unbelievable ... and dont forget his 10%

[valeryferry]

I’m happy that we help Ukraine. They suffer from Russian terror for 9 years. They have to be already stopped
