61 billion approved for Ukraine

Serious question. At what point does Russia decide this US proxy war shit crosses the line for Russia…There's a limit, right?
Dangerous game in my eyes.
I'm tired of seeing all this money leave our country. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know the arguments but I don't think this is economically something that is sustainable - especially on multiple fronts.
No easy answers but the current approach ain't working.
Time to just get back to the rest of the world being scared as fuck of our president and what he may do.

Unconfirmed Reports are France sent troops into Ukraine this weekend.

Grab your ankles and cough if you’re under 25 years old

I hope when this does escalate the Chickenhawks on this board volunteer as well as the families of every person in Congress who continue to vote to exterminate the lives of conscripted Ukrainians being forced to fight Biden’s war.

The Uniparty going against the will of the people. We all live under the thumb. This is no longer a democracy. We are ruled by people that are America last. Anyone with half a brain knows Russia has no intention of taking over Europe. All that money will be funneled back to Congress.

Great use of taxpayer money…
I remember a few weeks ago when some generals were fired. Now we know the “why.”


As Seymour Hersh recently reported, CIA Director Burns had to warn Zelensky to stop stealing so much money.

The issue of corruption was directly raised with Zelensky in a meeting last January in Kiev with CIA Director William Burns. 
His message to the Ukrainian president, I was told by an intelligence official with direct knowledge of the meeting, was out of a 1950s mob movie. 
The senior generals and government officials in Kiev were angry at what they saw as Zelensky’s greed, so Burns told the Ukrainian president, because “he was taking a larger share of the skim money than was going to the generals.” 
Burns also presented Zelensky with a list of thirty-five generals and senior officials whose corruption was known to the CIA and others in the American government. 
Zelensky responded to the American pressure ten days later by publicly dismissing ten of the most ostentatious officials on the list and doing little else. 
“The ten he got rid of were brazenly bragging about the money they had—driving around Kiev in their new Mercedes,” the intelligence official told me. 
Zelensky’s half-hearted response and the White House’s lack of concern was seen, the intelligence official added, as another sign of a lack of leadership that is leading to a “total breakdown” of trust between the White House and some elements of the intelligence community.
