We are looking at the spendthrift liberal “logic”: throw tons of money into a problem (in this case, the Russian invasion of Ukraine) in the hopes that the money itself will solve the problem. At least, the liberals argue, they are “doing something”.
If that logic had worked for Ukraine, that country should have driven the Russians out a long time ago.

Instead of just handing the weapons over, we should use them for their intended purpose and turn Ukraine and Russia into smoking rubble.
Yeah, I know.. ain't gonna happen. It's an idealistic view, but I like it.

Don’t bother. You’ll be called a Putin lackey for attempting to circumvent the CIA/Deep State narrative of the near glorious success of Ukraine. They only need $100 billion more, and a new gay marriage law, and things will turn around very quickly.

“... president can authorize the transfer of articles and services from U.S. stocks without congressional approval”
Weakens us AND bypasses Congress!

What’s the tally up to now? Then add in what biden is going to send them for “Reconstruction” when all this is over with.
To: Mount Athos
the president can authorize the transfer of articles and services from U.S. stocks without congressional approval in response to an emergency.
Keeping his 10% fee intact and payable of course...
