In the General/Chat forum, on a thread titled GROK AI confirms President Trump's statements that the US no longer provides funds to Ukraine. All funds spent now are from prior Congressional Appropriations - no new ones planned, 9YearLurker wrote:

Um, except we’ve got NATO making major investments, with the US a major funder of NATO.

Trum has told NATO to step up their spending. Some nations have never come up to 2% funding or don't contribute funds at all. Trump pointed out that the US is doing more than their fair share. NATO is afraid Trump will take America out of the alliance. Why shouldn't we when our 'partners' never maintained military readiness and couldn't come to our aid anyway if we were attacked?

I think the days of America carrying the NATO funding are over - we're showing that by stopping funding in Ukraine since we already gave them $350 billion.

Beyond that, our defense contractors are selling weapons and earning a profit.

Meanwhile we are funding the war through NATO. Don’t be fooled.
