Gotta keep the kickbacks on schedule. Retired generals need their bonuses from defense contractors.

They are on that aid to Ukraine like Hunter on a pile of parmesan on top of the carpet but crime, inflation, energy shortage, skyrocketing prices on everything, Baby Formula shortage, etc... they don’t even notice.
