WASHINGTON, Nov 22- (Reuters) - Disbursement of $4.5 billion in economic aid for Ukraine will begin in the coming weeks, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said on Tuesday.

The funds, which were approved in September as part of the stop-gap government funding bill, were aimed at "bolstering economic stability and supporting core government services," Yellen said in a statement, adding that other donors should increase and accelerate their assistance to Ukraine as it defends against Russia's invasion.

Remember when $5 billion was entirely too much to secure our border?

This is what has got to stop...

But of course they need to get it spent in a hurry for some reason...

It must be rough spending other poeple's money all the time.

Can you imagine the stress level these people live with trying to spend the money stolen from 300M people?

Yeah, but Ukraine is critical to the liberal world order.

This is simply them filling up a totally separate bank account to fund a new gov't they will try to spin up in the near future. Also with a little on the side to go directly into their pockets.

IT's like that nasty divorce where say the wife drains the checking account secretly and then leaves down in the dark of night with the cash to start a totally new life.

How much have we sent since February now? Is someone keeping up with a total?

I think it's getting near $100 billion. I saw someone say recently that the last push of $37 billion is to keep it just under 100 so it doesn't look so bad.

Why?

They have a sucker in the US government to do this for them.

Now that $FTX is gone, are they going to just deposit it straight into the Dem PAC accounts?

It’s actually worse than that. They’re creating the money out of thin air (+inflation) through debt so it’s future peoples money.

This whole thing is going to blow up one day.
