Fun fact. By March 1964, after nine years of involvement in Vietnam, the US had committed approximately $27 billion (today's dollars) in military and economic "aid"
By May 2022, the US had committed $54 billion to Ukraine in less than three months

Don't let anyone tell you differently!
But we have to help white people rebuild their homes againat Russian Nazi’s
We weren’t involved in Vietnam that much before 1964. I’m against the $40 billion for Ukraine.
“That much”?
Yes we were.
It’s as if Ukraine has been annexed by the USA and now we are paying for all their military as well as welfare, pensions, food stamps, etc. May as well make them the 51st state.
I have just finished watching the 10 part documentary “EUROPA”.
It is heavily documented with historical information most of us have NEVER seen. Portions of it contain material (thanks to Marxist control of the media and our educational system) that is hard to watch due to “cognitive dissonance”. To say it is mind-blowing is massive understatement.
All 10 chapters are sequentially presented at this link: https://www.bitchute.com/video/s1nPYDj7KBEQ/
If you wish to view them one chapter at a time, simply go to Bitchute, type EUROPA into the search bar and all 10 individual chapters will be listed.
This series is NOT AN ANTISEMITIC hatchet job: IT IS A THOROUGH EXPOSE OF THE SINISTER AND DEADLY ZIONIST/COMMUNIST FORCES now on the verge of completing the prophesy articulated by Lenin in the 1920s: “First we will take Eastern Europe, then the masses of Asia. We will encircle the last bastion of capitalism, the United States of America. We will not need to fight. It will fall as a ripe fruit into our hands.”
If you simply ignore this email and have children, you need to start composing a letter to them explaining what YOU did - OR DIDN’T DO - to stop it because, with history as our guide, those of them who fail to become apparatchiks in the “New World Order” will have very difficult and/or very SHORT LIVES!
If you DO watch this series, do so with an open mind.
Due to the HIGHLY CONTROVERSIAL (understatement that!) nature of this series, I have downloaded all 10 chapters to several storage devices in case the Marxist enemy succeeds in having them SCRUBBED from Bitchute. If YOU have that capability, I’d suggest you do so as well.
Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and settle down for a 11 hours of history NOT taught in ANY COUNTRY TODAY!
Yes apparently you’re paying their pensions and gov’t workers.
If only the average person knew what was in that bill they would be mad as hell!
Alas, they get away with it.. For now.
It would be interesting to know how much of the costs for our foreign adventures go to greasing the palms of the local strong men.
If we had only spent that much money from 1964-1967 it would be interesting.
Just the tip of the proverbial iceberg and one of many massive boondoggles by our great leaders.
Let’s see...
-Iraq
-Afghanistan
-Libya
-Syria
-Ukraine
That’s a quick short list and does not include the billions spent by the deep state to subvert sovereign nations around the globe.
Why the heck do you think Russia and soon-to-be China are bulking up to deal with this?
What a way to run a country!
Probably ‘cause the Biden/Clinton crime families were not yet firmly entrenched so as to skim the flowing money.
Another not so fun fact. The $54 billion spent on Ukraine’s border is more than we spend on our border.

Case Closed: The Gulf of Tonkin Incident, Aug. 4, 1964
This article by Capt. Carl Otis Schuster, U.S. Navy (ret.) originally appeared in the June 2008 issue of Vietnam magazine. A National Security Agency report released in 2007 reveals unequivocally that the alleged Aug. 4, 1964, attack by North Vietnam on U.S. destroyers never actually happened.
In the first few days of August 1964, a series of events off the coast of North Vietnam and decisions made in Washington, D.C., set the United States on a course that would largely define the next decade and weigh heavily on American foreign policy to this day. What did and didn’t happen in the Gulf of Tonkin on August 2 and 4 has long been in dispute, but the decisions that the Johnson Administration and Congress made based on an interpretation of those events were undeniably monumental.
While many facts and details have emerged in the past 44 years to persuade most observers that some of the reported events in the Gulf never actually happened, key portions of the critical intelligence information remained classified until recently.
