New Ukraine “aid” bill would bring the total to over $173 billion, over $1,300 per American household and over $11,500 per Ukrainian household.
This will continue to drive higher inflation and mortgage rates across the US – making every American family pay the price.

“drive higher inflation and mortgage rates across the US”
I agree.
Everything Biden touches: border issues, increasing social benefits;etc. Ukrainian is small in comparison with perhaps positive global/international results
LOL wrong

Here's what's in the $13.6 BILLION welfare package to Zelensky and his corrupt government.

Military aid
About $6.5 billion, roughly half of the aid package, will go to the US Department of Defense so it can deploy troops to the region and send defense equipment to Ukraine, according to a summary of the bill provided by the House Appropriations Committee.
The US has deployed thousands of troops throughout Europe, both before and during Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. But putting troops on the ground in Ukraine, which is not a member of NATO, is a line that the US and its Western allies have not been willing to cross.
Humanitarian aid
More than $4 billion will provide humanitarian support for refugees fleeing Ukraine and people displaced within Ukraine, as well as provide emergency food assistance, health care and urgent support for vulnerable communities inside the region, according to a fact sheet provided by the House Appropriations Committee.
Economic aid
The package will provide nearly $1.8 billion to help respond to the economic needs in Ukraine and neighboring countries, such as cybersecurity and energy issues.
The law also calls for $25 million for the US Agency for Global Media, an independent federal agency, to combat disinformation in news broadcasts abroad. Another $120 million will help support local Ukraine activists and journalists and promote accountability for Russian human rights violations.

How much of this $13.6 BILLION will go to fuel the Big Guy's and the globohomo, prancing boy Z's Money Laundering Operation?
We don't know, do we, because none of the money given to Zelensky and his corrupt government is accounted for.
Most Americans are struggling to put food on the table and pay their bills, but zeepers don't give a crap about this country. They want to see it brought to its knees.
