#2 Ladies and gentlemen, our "staunch allies" in Europe.

Supposedly, the ruinous cost of defending Europe gives us a say in their foreign relations. Obviously that's a lie. So what are we getting for our profligate spending? Nothing. Just a logistics hub that enables endless wars in the Middle East for the profit of our military-industrial complex.

USA out of NATO. Cut those bastards off at the knees. Put Lockheed Martin and all the others in bankruptcy instead of our small businesses. America first!

#5 Wait until non-humanitarian goods are shipped and the US Treasury denies all dollar clearing to the banks dealing with Instex.
