Joe Biden will do whatever he wants because everyone and their mother knows full well the second the GOP gets called “Putin supporters” or “democracy haters” they will immediately acquiesce.
In a just world, The Big Guy has some explaining to do

Republicans are mad that they didn’t get a big enough cut of the laundered money.
Hope to see one day that all congress critters must undergo a full audit every two years. Including their family members.
Yes, but they're excellent at doing so.
No need to audit Ukraine.
Just audit FTX, and the picture will become clear.
No need to audit what shouldn’t have been spent.
In fairness to McCarthy, what can the GOP do if Biden has given the money to his brother James or the money went to Iran? Dems will NEVER vote to impeach or reprimand someone with a D after his name. And there are too many spineless RINOs in The House. And the MSM will attack as they always do.
“A potential audit would determine how much, if any, of the U.S. aid is ending up in the wrong hands.”
If any? Who do they think they’re fooling. After checking
it would not be surprising to learn at least half of congress, would be richer after the big guy took his 10 percent. The precedent set with Trump’s taxes will be coming into play here.
warnings..
I’m sure your warning have them trembling in fear.
I just read a recent article the U.S. Department of Defense failed a recent audit attempt and cannot account for $2 TRILLION dollars it was allocated.
That is two thousand billion dollars.
The Pentagon should get zero additional funding unless or until they can account for the money they spend.
I don’t care if soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines don’t get paid until reforms are completed. They are all obviously working for a crime syndicate.
A MILITARY THIS CORRUPT DESERVES NO SUPPORT FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WHOSE MONEY THEY BLOW IRRESPONSIBLY.
What a novel idea - track aid money!!!!
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponentβs Argument
The Republican audit sidesteps the constitutional reality that foreign aid is not one of Congress's constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.
Regarding foreign aid, Justice Joseph Story had explained that it is constitutionally indefensible.
βIf the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].β β Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).
Sadly, follow the money, crook federal lawmakers know that war is not only profitable for some people, but probably also a good front-end for unconstitutional, unaccountable federal spending.
Unconstitutional foreign aid is another example where all that one House "Republican" needs to do to effectively exercise majority power is to be a whistlebrower for the fed's constitutinally nonexistant power to provide foreign aid.
Perhaps the individual states, not the feds, need to actually own the gold and silver that mints run by the federal government produce.
"Street fighter" Trump 47 needs to not only finish draining the swamp, but also surrender state powers that the feds have been stealing from the states back to the states.
βCherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves. It seems to be the law of our general nature.β - Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)
Happens a lot.
I was peripheral to the “loss” of $70B in CPA reconstruction projects in Iraq.
There was a power failure one night in Al Faw palace which housed the IT for a good part of Iraq. Next shift a guy comes in asking around for help with a Buffalo TerraStore which lost power and reconfigured from 2x250GB mirrored array to 4x250GB spanned array -the device’s default. It’d been plugged in and buttons pushed a lot and it wouldn’t reconfigure to the mirror array. I told him (along with everyone else) that it have to be sent off to a cleared recovery lab. I asked him what was on it. He said the documentation for $70 billion of CPA reconstruction project spending.
Sometimes I still see Iraqi grifters claiming they were defrauded of “70 billion” in reconstruction funding.
Bkmk
The Uniparty gobbled it up and tucked it away where nobody will ever find it.
Exactly how much of this $20 bi9llion was spent on FTX cryptobucks which Bankman-Fried kicked back to Democrats and RINOs?
