Why stop at 12 Billion? Why not send a thousand trillion dollars. If you are going to go, go first class. I am sure the Soros Worshipers would support it. As would the Neo Cons, the Globalists. Along with the members of the Worship Lying Joe Biden Brigade and the Biden Crime Cartel.
The Left sees Putin as competition to world dominion, while lust for power by both, with the privations that will result, serves this purpose, by making the populace increasingly dependent upon the State for sustenance and security, and thus allegiant to it, and justifying extreme measure against both the ideological dissenters as well as the armed resistance it provokes to violence.
The latter tend to support Putin as the enemy of their enemy, while both the Left, and Putin supporters (usually) oppose true Christians which the two foes both seek to silence (as also Putin indeed does) as their Master is their greatest opposition to their dominion. Ukraine - while it should have independence - is trending toward being more aligned with the Western Left, sad to say.
