Less than half goes to weaponry, the other half is pure pork.

-You do understand it’s only a temporary delay, right? The bill will still most likely pass in a week.

Yes, probably. 99-1.

Agreed. Screw Ukraine. I’m tired of hearing about their fight. It’s their fight joy ours. Why did 2/3 of our javelin and stingers disappear into that black hole of corruption. Oh that’s right they have 10% for the big guy. We need to be thinking what’s next. Not tomorrows war.

That diagram needs to add a money flow to the oligarchs. If they can’t get the Kremlin to stop and leave Ukraine, Russian oligarchs in on the Ukrainian action will miss out on $hundreds of millions. That will mean more for their Ukrainian partners.

I still support Ukraine’s defense, but we all remember all of the court battles and hassles trying to get $10 billion to secure our southern border!

This $40 billion pork fest is too much!

While we’re at it, let’s see the financials of every Congress member, their families, and EVERYONE at the State Department. The kickbacks probably amount to more than the southern wall.

Did he actually block it, or just vote against it?

See #13

Leaders asked for unanimous consent, skipping some procedures and an actual vote. One senator’s objection means it’s not unanimous and must follow procedure.
