🇺🇲🇷🇺🇺🇦 The US is preparing for a compromise?

Today, Russia has given guarantees that it will not attack Odessa from the sea for 120 days, so that Ukraine can sell its grain and other goods by sea.

And here is the news that appeared immediately after that:

- The United States did not transfer aircraft to Ukraine, but only helps with spare parts for existing aviation - Pentagon

- The United States does not intend to provide Ukraine with ATACMS missiles (range up to 300 km), Biden’s national security aide said.

- Possible supply of US fighter jets to Ukraine is not considered in the near future - White House

— The United States and allies need Russian oil supplies to world markets, otherwise prices for it will rise again

— Lithuania resumed transit between Russia and the Kaliningrad region

Where the hell does Biden get authorization to send $270M worth of anything without Congress?

He doesn’t seem like a president; he seems like a king.

"No it isn't" - Jon Preston

Yes it is. Try reading the article instead of just pushing Russian propaganda sometime.

"The latest tranche brings the total U.S. security assistance committed to Ukraine by the Biden administration to $8.2 billion, and is being paid for through $40 billion in economic and security aid for Ukraine approved. by Congress in May.

If Ukraine wins the war (I doubt it) every American should be given Ukrainian honorary citizenship for sacrificing their financial future.

Why stop at 270 Million? Why not 270 Billion?

Thoughts and prayers go out to the 10% for the Big Guy (Despite what people believe, foreign aid gets carefully siphoned off in different directions using very imaginative ways on balance sheets aided by our contractors way up on the totem pole).

from all appearances the US is rapidly becoming Ukraine’s sole supporter. The others are dropping away.
———-
Worse yet, leaked Polish minister remarks stating how to carve up Ukraine when “aid” finally dries up and they capitulate….mentioned was 20,000 Polish “ Peacekeeping “ soldiers placed in the old Polish territories of Ukraine….in effect, regaining their lost land.

Carving up Ukraine is on the agenda, calls for Zelensky’s ouster rising, and much more leaking out preparing how to benefit from Ukie lands demise…
RIP Ukraine 1991-2023. Corruption is responsible for many countries demise, it didn’t take Ukraine long….

We sell T-bills, China buys them and we then take that money and give it to Zelenskyy and other well hung congress whores.

The NATO /NWO money is the sweetest crack around. Zman is the perfect NWO/NATO whore too. Something the Bidens do know about and that is crack and the whores that love it. Zman will do whatever his NWO/NATO pimps tell him to do, that is the way it goes with whores and pimps .

How many Ukrainians die makes no difference to the NWO/NATO as long as the money keeps flowing, 0 fugs given.

I find myself disagreeing with both sides of this debate. I think the idea Ukrainian forcing are “NAZIS” is Russian propaganda. At the same time, this is not our party so why are we getting involved?

Less and less all the time...blowback from “freezing” other nation’s money.

China Is Quietly Selling US Treasury Bonds: Big Trouble For Wall Street?

China has been quietly trimming its U.S. bond holdings to the lowest level since 2010 and may continue to do so in the near future, according to Globaltimes. That’s a significant shift from the previous years when China was buying U.S. Treasuries, which could spell trouble for the U.S. debt markets for several reasons. First, China and Japan have been among the top holders of U.S. debt, and selling that debt could put upward pressure on U.S. long-term interest rates. Second, these sales come at a time the Federal Reserve is reversing its Quantitative Easing (Q.E.), selling U.S. Treasuries, too, which has already been pushing long-term interest rates higher.

Why is China selling U.S. Treasuries? To cut down losses as Treasury bond prices slid and help diversify its foreign exchange portfolio, according to Global Times.

But Biden doesn’t have carte blanche authority to spend money without Congressional approval. Is this part of the $44 billion authorized for Ukraine or does he have a slush fund?

I knew you would. It's sad that it is not our Navy anymore. Geeze, 2 highly maneuverable US warships run into 2 slow lumbering freighters. Now a sub runs aground having the most advanced tech on board. And you have the O6's and below following the "woke" admirals. Breaks my heart, shipmate.

Oh well, we served when the Navy was a shipshape institution. So we have that. Fair winds...
