Only 57 Rs voted against this. We have work to do. Vote the RINOs that voted for this out of office.

Prolonging the agony so they can cover up Democrat crimes in Ukraine.

Good thing we saved all that money that would have gone to a southern wall just for this occasion

I have no evidence, no proof, but my experience and my gut tell me this is a corrupt cash grab.

This is atrocious, especially given the state of decline of most everything domestic.

I wouldn't give $40 to Ukraine, much less $40 BILLION. We couldn't 'afford' $4 billion for Trump's wall at the southern border, but now all of a sudden we can afford $40 BILLION for Ukraine?

Suckers.

What you perceive as history is no longer relevant. What is relevant is the survival of Ukraine and the defeat of Russia.

Government spending is included in GDP.

This $40B could keep the economy from "officially" being in a "Recession" during the 2022 election.

Just a guess.

$40 billion Ukraine money laundering operation. Will pay dividends for decades beyond the November reckoning.
