US announces $1.2 billion in new military aid for Ukraine
INSIDER PAPER ^ | 09 MAY 2023 | AFP

Posted on 05/09/2023 10:11:58 AM PDT by Extremely Extreme Extremist

The United States on Tuesday announced a new $1.2 billion security assistance package for Ukraine to boost the country’s air defenses and provide it with additional artillery ammunition.

Ukraine is readying for a highly anticipated spring offensive against invading Russian troops, but the latest assistance will not immediately arrive on the battlefield as it must still be procured from the defense industry or partners.

This avoids depleting US stocks, but means the assistance will take longer to reach Kyiv than equipment drawn directly from existing American military inventories.

For a country run by a bisexual dancing comedian puppet that's supposedly destroying Russia - I mean, just annihilating Russia non-stop - with celebrities going into a war zone cheering them on, and Russia, led by a madman who's in the late stages of cancer, they sure require constant military aid from another country. Just never heard of a country that's winning still begging for aid. Boggles the mind.

Raise your hand if your dumb enough to believe Mitch, Lindsey, and Romney are going to ever say No, no matter the cost.

This is who they are.

Yup! And tons of cash from Defense Contractors get sent to the re-elction funds, and family members get board seats, as do generals and colonels.

Remember Daddy Warbucks? He’s baaaack!

Thank you for referencing that article Extremely Extreme Extremist.

"US announces $1.2 billion in new military aid for Ukraine"


FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

The following excerpt is all that oppressed taxpayers need to know about peacetime foreign military aid.

If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).

All Democratic and Republican patriots who support Trump need to "reset" the unconstitutionally big state and federal governments by primarying ALL incumbent state and federal government leaders in 2024 elections since they have all shown that they're not willing to stand up to condemn unconstitutional government policies imo.

In fact, while I support Trump, regular readers of Free Republic can probably do a better job of endorsing MAGA candidates for office than Trump can imo.

The definition of insanity is reelecting your beloved career state and federal lawmakers and executives over and over again, expecting different results every time.

Bankrupting the US is the plan by communist infiltrators.
