As Americans suffer all time price highs amidst the greatest wealth transfer in history, the U.S. Congress has proposed sending $300 million to Ukraine’s military in the 2022 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The funding will go, in part, to the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative to support the nation’s armed forces.
A further $4 billion is billed to go to the European Defense Initiative, with a further $150 million for Baltic Security cooperation. Ukraine has welcomed the proposal, due to a perceived Russian military threat along their border.
Only half of the proposed funding will be subject to conditions surrounding Ukrainian defense reforms subject to NATO standards, civilian control of the military, and greater accountability in procurement. The U.S. Congress also wants to ensure that Ukraine receives “lethal assistance” such as anti-armor weapons, anti-aircraft weapons systems, and procurement of vessels for Ukraine’s Navy in order to “counter maritime aggression.”

This is serious————
Every time DC totally and irresponsibly wastes billions of dollars I can think of two good causes to which the money should go:
Research into dementia.
Research into diabetes.
So they can leave the weapons to the Russians when they take over?
Just like they left billions of dollars worth of American weapons to the Taliban?
.
All the money is spent for your Grandkids, grandchildren. Generations are in insurmountable debt.
Ukraine is a DEM Slush fund. Let the DNC fund them.
All those State Dept people that hated Trump and Trump supporters so, should send their salaries to Ukraine. They were paid $150k a year to investigate Trump, and protect the dirty IG and run a Resistance movement. None of those jobs are necessary. They are make work and political awards.
.
Hunter and Joe giving Ukraine what they paid the Biden family for.
Great post. Every word is true.
Remember this little bit of Biden family crime?
FLASHBACK, 2018: Joe Biden Brags At CFR Meeting About Withholding Aid To Ukraine To Force Firing Of Prosecutor
it is a waste of $ to give more money to Ukraine
like it or not, Biden has signaled all week that he is giving it back to Russia
The Afghan money factory closed down, now the road show heads to Ukraine. Because you know, we are not the biggest debtor nation on earth or anything.
Theft, in broad daylight.
where are the military patriots in America who will stop this insanity
The Russkies are licking their lips...
They’ll drag the threat out long enough for Xiden to load up the Ukraine with goodies that will be left behind when the attack actually takes place...
Putin knows how to play the game...
Ron Paul was right about everything. Too bad the very FReepers flabbergasted over this were the ones attacking him back in 2008.
I hope they put the military in the right place. Ukraine is confusing, as the part closest to Russia is anti-Russia and the west of the country is pro-Russia. You would think it would be the other way round but of course not.
don’t you dare spend that kind of money on the Ukraine. It is mainly a European problem so let the EU take the lead with the US in a back-up role.
And by the way don’t let this Ukraine/Russia stuff distract you from the Middle East, the real hot spot, as always, where Russia will surely become involved if the Israeli strike on Iran has ramifications.
It involves NATO, so that complicates things.
Yep, heaping a massive debt burden on future generations. Unconscionable.
