“ The way military aid works, dollars never leave the US.”

Lots of money circulating in Ukraine now. Funny how that works.

And you know this how? Military spending is akin to giving a country a store credit and a list of equipment they can use it on. We then package it up and send it to them.

We don’t give them a pallet with a billion dollars.

I am not saying there haven’t been transfers, but not in the billions of dollars.

I am not debating whether or not any of this is a good idea, but there ARE people who believe we send them cash. These folks need some education on military assistance.

More US aid money to Ukraine is at Raytheon and DuPont than Kiev.
