So why has HE and his colleagues voted AGAINST an Independent Afghanistan style Inspector General that RAND PAUL tried to introduce?
Sen. RAND PAUL (R-Ky.) says he will reintroduce his legislation calling for a dedicated Ukraine aid inspector general after the Pentagon disclosed that it miscalculated Ukraine aid by $3 billion.
'Paul’s legislation would fold Ukraine oversight into the duties of the special inspector general for Afghanistan reconstruction. The office, now held by JOHN SOPKO, would be empowered to conduct audits, investigations and oversight for programs run by the Pentagon, State Department and USAID. It would also submit quarterly reports to Congress.
This isn’t a new idea for the eye doctor. A year ago, he proposed legislation to establish a federal watchdog that oversaw how dollars are spent on the Ukraine war effort. Paul delayed a $40 billion Ukraine spending package before he got a vote on the measure, which failed.'

Is Blumenthal lying? Along with Warren & Graham?

Sen. Blumenthal in Ukraine on 60 Minutes: "We're monitoring. We're following every piece of equipment. There has been no diversion. No evidence of misappropriation" Well. That makes me feel better ...

“Evidence” seems to be something that is difficult for pols/bureaucrats to recognize, even when they trip over it.

"We're monitoring. We're following every piece of equipment. There has been no diversion. No evidence of misappropriation," Hon, that would be a first in the history of the world.
When they were building the freaking pyramids there were shipments of beer and makeup that went missing.
There has NEVER been a government project where stuff did not ended up being swiped and resold.
Please do not try to pee on my leg and tell me it is raining.

Because the existing appropriations legislation already has extensive accounting in it that is being performed and reported back to Congress.
There is no real evidence of any misappropriation. State side websites repeating seeded and spammed Russian claims do not count.

Da Nang Dick says no fraud or misappropriation?
Then you can take it to the bank there's plenty of fraud and misappropriation.

"Is Blumenthal lying?"
He lied very easily about being a Vietnam Vet, so why wouldn't he lie about this? If there's been an exact accountability for every penny, and piece of equipment sent to Ukraine, where is it, and why haven't the records been officially released? Because it's a crock of shite, that's why.

Then share the accounting with American Citizens.
Both Money and Equipment Given To Ukraine.
Give us the details.

People are still referring to ‘that’ site as Twitter.
Nobody is referring to it solely as ‘X’, at least not yet.
Maybe Elon won’t be giving the full kabash to the Twitter title after all. Perhaps he just wanted everyone to know that if he so wished to, he could legally change the name,
just like “that!”

Next thing you know he’ll be picking targets from maps laid out on the floor.

Sure we can believe everything that Blumenthal says. We can all feel good now.
