On Monday, the Biden administration announced that it would be sending another round of support worth $550 million to Ukraine to help the war-torn nation defeat Russian President Vladimir Putin.
White House National Security spokesman John Kirby said the Department of Defense (DOD) would send more “security assistance” to Ukraine, including ammunition for the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System alongside ammunition for 155 mm artillery, The Hill reported.
“In total, the United States has committed approximately $8.8 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since the beginning of the Biden administration,”

So do you think this administration is stock piling money in Ukraine? I can think of no reason to keep sending money like this. Something is fishy and has been from the start.

Where is this money coming from?

Just NO!
The IRS can’t even get Americans their tax refunds in a timely manner! I had to file an amended return which they received on March 28, 2022.
I’m still waiting for my refund. It’s been 18 weeks.
So until AMERICANS get back what we are owed, I can’t see sending the Ukraine anything.
Besides which… what are WE getting for that $$$ ?

I think that most of the "security assistance" is in the form of weapon inventory built up over the years. Included in the shipment are the long range Himar missiles that were desired at the start of the conflict. Replacement inventory will be produced to replenish that sent to Ukraine and will incorporate improvements that always develop.

We're heading into a depression. And $550M going overseas again. And Baby Formula is still in shortage. Keep an eye on the grocery shelves these next few months.

I think enough is enough! Someone is going to make a lot of money with all of the American 'help and assistance'! Considering the state of our economy money should be spend at home first.

One more time, what legislation proposed in the House and then passed by both the House and Senate authorized this additional “contribution “ to the Ukraine Biz Bag Money Grab for the benefit of the Demoncrats and the GOPeahens? What was the roll call vote?

Blackmail is a never-ending pit, but the Deep State is confident that it can continue to fleece the American taxpayer into perpetuity.

Something is odd about this Ukraine situation.
Russia is twice the size of the U.S. in land mass. Ukraine is a little smaller is size than the State of Texas. So Russia, the Superpower, can't take over a small part of Ukraine?

Just another dem slush fund to enrich a handful of elites at our expense. No doubt the dems have become masters at money laundering.

How much of that $500-million is earmarked for the "Big Guy"? How much is going to the DNCC for the 2022 election?

Democrats always have an open checkbook. The Republicans are so retarded that they have to ask the Democrats, before they spend anything.

I saw an interview with Zelenskyy and his wife and she looks like she's very high maintenance. So old Volody may need a large amount of slush funds ie "security assistance" to keep her happy. Plus 10% going back to the "Big Guy'" wink, wink, nod, nod. That's my story about all of OUR taxpayer money going over to Ukraine and I'm sticking to it. FVZ, FJB Let's Go Brandon.
