WASHINGTON, D.C. — In the nick of time, Congress has passed a bipartisan $12 billion funding bill, narrowly avoiding a Ukrainian government shutdown.
"As elected representatives chosen by the people, it is our solemn duty, as outlined in the Constitution, to fully fund the Ukrainian government at all times," said Senator Chuck Schumer. "We humbly accept this sacred responsibility to send billions to Ukraine, who will send it to Raytheon, who will send it to super PACs, who will help us get elected. It's the right thing to do."
President Zelensky took a few moments in between magazine glamour shoots to thank America for her generosity. "We promise we will put this vast, vast wealth to good use," he said while checking the time on his new Girard-Perregaux Quasar Light Tourbillon wristwatch. "We know that Americans get up and go to work every day hoping that some of their money is used to kill Russians. I'm proud to be making their dreams come true."
Congress estimates the stopgap bill will keep Ukraine funded for at least two weeks, or until their super PACs run out of money.
LOL - Most definitely NOT SATIRE.

If the youcrane is winning this war why is their gov in danger of shutting down?
Don’t forget to send all of your money to Ukraine.
The government money is not enough.
They need more and more and more and more......
:-(
Long been known that the Ukrainian economy was imploding and that the ZelenskyyIdiot Regime was essentially broke, which will be further highlighted once Winter sets in and the Russians adding roughly over 100,000 km2 of land, control of the territory that produces near 95 percent of Ukrainian GDP as well as a large chuck of Ukraine’s industrial capacity and resources, and over 5 million plus people to the Russian Federation.
It just was never talked about within FR via articles etc.
90% is going into Slush Funds on both sides of the Atlantic. I’d bet money on it.
“ to send billions to Ukraine, who will send it to Raytheon, who will send it to super PACs, who will help us get elected”
Completely true
Safe bet. Vast amounts of money are spent by the government and nobody knows where it goes, which means they don’t want us to know where its going.
We are a kleptocracy. No doubt about it.
Well said and you nailed it perfectly.
I think they’re all lining their pockets with as much $ as possible before it all collapses due to their policies. May they all rot.
