New contracts to supply Ukraine directly – or backfill U.S. weapons sent to Ukraine – were signed late last year, and now revenue is flowing to the big defense contractors.

“What defense contractor is running for President???”
What President since Reagan was not an MIC Defense contractor by proxy?

Your handle brings disrespect to our armed forces.
But I guess you get an extra serving of borscht in the cafeteria for sharing your favorite photos of men dancing.
Thanks for showing us who YOU really are.
