How long until another “aid” package?
After this one does nothing
Mark my words they will push a $100+ Billion dollar bill in the summer months

All these NGO and MIC businesses were created from the Iraq then Afghanistan wars are trying to stay afloat. Billions were flowing to these entities and of course money was flowing back to congressional politicians.
Once we left Afghanistan they needed a new grift. Ukraine is filling that bill.
There is probably collusion between Russia and the U.S. with the this Ukraine war. Putin is probably making bank off it too. It's a win/win for Biden and Putin. frick the American and Russian people.

It'll happen like this
>Lines will start to collapse
>Articles about deplted man power
>Articles about Ukraine ignoring NATO doctrine and it's their fault
>Reveal of massive losses to their army
>Articles showing Ukraine officals misusing funds and corruption
>Ukraine no longer have enough soliders to defend positions
Nato will throw Ukraine under the bus and blame them for the loss because they didn't listen and corruption. The west will start to push Ukraine to negoitate due to the "new" findings. Zelensky will step down and flee to Europe and a new west pupet will be put in to broker a deal.

No doubt Bunk. It's going to happen.
Our GOP is complicit in this grift and until they are voted out, there is no recourse.

I think its only going to get worse. Whenever it eventually ends, regardless of outcome, the calls will come to send ungodly amounts of money over there to "rebuild."
Get ready for Marshall Plan comparisons 24/7.

Over 80% of that 60 billion is going to be spent on replenishing, upgrading and ramping up American arms.

Why couldn't this have been passed with the regular $1 trillion that we give the DoD every year?

it'll stop when putin bleeds us out so that we can't provide for our own military.
Posted on 4/23/24 at 10:28 am to texag7
It’s fine. Trump got them to borrow the money going forward. We will get it back. No worries.

Jesse Kelley is absolutely right and yes it is coming.
The US taxpayer will pay to rebuild a new Ukraine that is solidly in the Russian orbit of power.

Why do we need to replenish American arms is their a conflict causing our arm to be depleted?

Shh! That kind of comment messes up the talking points. Don't you understand that this was all 4D chess to get rid of our obsolete weapons?

It will never end. They impeached the last President for trying to stop it. They will stop at nothing to keep taking our money and buying themselves million dollar mansions.

He didn't try to stop it. He was perfectly willing to send money to Ukraine. He got impeached because he tried to trade Congressionally approved funds for dirt on his political opponent. Slight difference.

Misleading. The money was appropriated by congress. Trump was legally obligated to send money to Ukraine via the U.S. Treasury.

That's the story then there is what really happened.
Trump directed the money appropriated for Ukraine from the U.S. Treasury to the DoD and they spent the money on Raytheon Stinger Missiles and the missiles where shipped to Ukraine.
The old way of doing things was to direct the money from the U.S. Treasury to the U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch. From Marie she would then dole out the cash to her favorite contractors and NGOs to "help Ukraine".
Trump blocked the politicians cut from Ukrainian appropriations. That's the real reason they impeached him. It was payback.
