We have been constantly told President Zelensky has been saying is close to victory.

Once this 60 billion gets paid out to the appropriate people, by the end of the year, just after the election, in the lame duck congress, Ukraine will be very close to victory if only they could get another 60-80 billion.

Since we are being told that we are giving the old stuff to Ukraine and replacing the old stuff with new then obviously we can reduce the military budget by $61 billion, right?

What are we up to now? 200,000,000,000.00 ? And the Ukrainians are getting mauled. Why will this latest aid turn the tide?

Hopefully military recruiting will boost in the NYC area. If US citizens are gonna eventually suffer and die for The Empire, then karma dictates that it should be them.

Yes. While they occasionally have a front page that is factual, creative, and pointed...

Just as often, they are shallow, biased, and partisan.
