There's one surefire way to make it stop.
but we're not allowed to talk about it
Ironic since it's what the founding fathers would have done.

Exactly why they put a compromised, senile, one foot in the grave old fool in office to take the fall.

I thought congress had the power of the purse?
Since when do Biden and Yellen get to authorize all of this spending?
FFS.

Unreal.
Should be treasonous.
This administration needs to disappear.

Be a true American, give Zelenskyy the American Express Centurion card with no limit backed by US taxpayers, and remit the bill each month to the US Treasury.
I wonder how many points you get for an Abrahams Tank or an F-16. You can gift half the points to me since it is my idea, the other half can go to Hunter and the big guy.

Meanwhile, they are about to start closing national parks and threatening social security because we are against the debt ceiling.

This government in its modern, evolved entity pretty much tells regular American citizens “frick you” on an everyday basis.
They don’t even try to hide it anymore. They are gonna do what the hell they want and if we don’t like it, we can suck it.

Trial balloons to take down the power grid in the future with EMP weapon. The $10 billion could harden the US power grid. Oh well, horses and candles sprinkled with Mad Max.

Unaudited and no strings attached. And it's our money.

Omg 10B?! That’s like .05% of our annual defense budget.
It’s a proxy war. The US is loving that Ukraine is making Russia draw this out.

When you hear these large numbers, think of them expressed as a percentage of the military budget.
I'm not saying this to justify or persuade, just to give you the route the Biden admin is taking on this.
They want to stop Russia from invading key partner states. They absolutely do not want to have to go to war with Russia or to even really get to the pre-war posturing.
Thus we get proxy war.
Much cheaper than a real conflict, no bodies, achieves some strategic objectives, keeps friends in the "defense" industries very happy.
With Putin wanting to be seize parts (or all) of neighboring states, we were always going to go back to a cold war. Russia is probably about as strong now as the USSR was in the 80s, so the same strategy is deployed.
Yes, 10 billion, 50 billion, one hundred billion. Sounds like a lot. The US military budget is almost a trillion each year.
