$40B aid package
145M US taxpayers

= $277 per

What could you have done with an extra $280? Instead it is being mailed to one of the most corrupt nations on Earth

Out of a population of almost 350 million.

That is the problem here.

Let Russia dominate the world and see how it'll work out for US citizens.

You really want to get angry?

We’ve now sent more dollars per Ukrainien than our own government gave directly to us during the lockdowns.

A non profit info pac should do a mass mailer to every district who had senator/ representative who voted yes, and send them a bill for $280, and list their congressman’s office numbers for complaints.

I was wondering how many more of you existed. Overheard this idiot in the gym telling his two buddies about how the Ukraine deserves what's happening there b/c they're so corrupt. And they provoked Russia by joining Nato.

Ukrainian pensions deserve it more than us! They're our greatest ally!

Don't forget how this money is untraceable and will surely not end up in the pockets of our own politicians.

Nah, you need the whole town to know that you're virtue signalling. Buy an ad on a billboard.

The problem is that we're still paying taxes to these fricking pieces of shite.

Ukraine and Russia is a regional conflict. They don't stop there, it's on like donkey Kong and I think most sane people know that.

Might as well send them some more and stick it to Putin. Let’s accelerate this madness.

Betya if Trump was in power and sending the same aid Brandon is sending you'd support it

You'd probably be screaming USA USA as well.

They don't deserve what's happening to them, but it is a corrupt state that benefits corrupt US politicians.

I hear ya, brotha.

What if Russia takes all of Europe and then crosses the English Channel and takes the UK? He inherits the Falkland Islands! This puts Putin firmly in our hemisphere. An amphibious invasion of Argentina will take place. After that a march of terror through Brazil and the Amazon until they reach Panama.

After crossing the canal, Putin will rebrand as a 'migrant convoy' and travel the entire length of central America until it gets to the Texas border.

Do you really want Russia on the Texas border?

Of course, this is all ridiculous. Russia can't even overrun a corrupt shithole in Eastern Europe. Russia should be of no concern to the US.

It's fiat currency, they print it and let us eat the inflation.

They only tax us to make us think we have a stake in it.
