As the November elections approach, Democrats want $50B for Ukraine for fear of “Ukraine skeptics” turning off the spigot. NBC News reports a bipartisan Congress wants a “huge military assistance package” of $50B for Ukraine.
Did you know we pay their government workers salaries and pensions? It’s a big shakedown.
NBC Report
“House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy of California, who is poised to take over as speaker if the GOP wins a majority in the House in the November midterm elections, warned this week that his fellow party members are “not going to write a blank check to Ukraine.”
“With that threat to Ukraine aid looming, the bipartisan idea under consideration would use a government funding bill during the lame-duck session after the midterms to secure a much higher level of military and other assistance than prior aid packages for Ukraine, according to the lawmaker and the aides.”
Congress has allocated a total of $65 billion in funding to Ukraine since Russia attacked the country in February. That doesn’t count the millions and billions in arms and floating cash that Biden sent. Now they want another $50B
“The new aid package, which most likely would be part of an omnibus spending bill, could be within the range of roughly $50 billion, congressional aides and a source close to the Ukraine government said.”
We have rising gas prices, so Biden drains our emergency reserves. We suffer from inflation and an open border, so Biden protects Ukraine’s borders with our tax dollars. The markets are doing poorly so he pushes ESG. Energy is soaring so he regulates it to death.
Hopefully, the 81 million who voted for him are sorry now. Maybe they don’t think $50B is all that much, who knows?
This guy will make the decision in the end.

QUESTIONS FROM THE TAXPAYERS
The answer to this is “no.” Those 87,000 new IRS agents are to bleed you dry, America.
Is anyone auditing how all the money being sent to Ukraine is being spent? US taxpayers would like to know.

The answer to this is “never.”
When does it end? By the end of January we will see another headline like this for March.

The answer to this is “yes.”
Is this real??

To the next one, “agreed.”
Can’t believe people are paying their taxes for this

It could also be a payoff. It’s definitely a shakedown.
This has to be a money laundering scheme, no other way to put it.

Our kid’s grandkids will still be paying for Ukraine’s (likely failed) defense. That is, if any of that money is actually being used for that. It’s disgusting.
It’s important for DC to send the money to Ukraine to have it laundered before the election!
The amount of Corruption in Ukraine must be ghastly. Ukraine was going to loose to Russia unless we went totally Nuclear. In that case, no one would win. Putin is putting on the thumb screws. He wanted to keep as much of Ukraine intact as possible, but with the US sticking it’s nose into this regional matter, Ukraine will shortly… Read more »
Once again, another powerful comment of truth!
It was noted the French Ambassador stated Zelensky isn’t in Kiev, and that Warsaw is calling the shots.
Ukraine, the “Armpit,” of the EU. So labeled because it is, by far, the MOST CORRUPT country in the EU. The same Inspector General brought in to oversee AND STOP corrupt funding to Afghanistan was already there and READY TO ROLL to oversee money to Ukraine. There would have been NO significant delay in funding but, CORRUPT CONGRESS would not… Read more »
the Ukraine is not in the EU. Take the rest of you nonsense and put it where the Sun don’t shine.
On June 23, 2022, the European Parliament adopted a resolution calling for the immediate granting of candidate status for EU membership to Ukraine. On the same day, the European Council granted Ukraine the status of a candidate for accession to the EU.
How about some energy assistance to Americans who need to heat their homes this winter? Our country is nothing but a corrupt joke now. How any idiot can vote for a democrat is mind boggling but they will.
Republicans have been writing a blank check for Ukraine.
Republican “leaders” are not opposition, except to Trump and US interests.
McCarthy and Mitch have a long history of leftist spending.
