Ukraine ping
Pace the excitable WaPo columnists’ verbiage, this instalment of the aid package authorized last year is by no means “massive”, but certainly better than nothing. According to The Drive, the total vehicles delivered from the US inventory so far include “1,300 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWVs) or Humvees, 300 M113 Armored Personnel Carriers and 527 Mine Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicles (MRAPs)”. That’s the reason for the increasing # of Humvee and M113 videos from the front lines. Not the latest gear, but warms the heart to see them put to good use.
One Stryker variant includes a turreted 105mm main gun similar to the AMX-10, although it’s not clear whether this model will be sent to Ukraine.

Don’t forget the fabric softener.
The only massive package in DC these days is meant to screw over the American citizen.
How long before Russia just attacks us directly. We are at war with them. I don’t give a S*** what anyone else says.
This is why they found TS documents in Biden’s garage and every other place he has. Leverage to pump in more money to the WAR MACHINE.
Screw ‘em! We’re broke, and in hock up to our eyeballs.
Let the Euroweenies fund “Hollywood” Zzzelllinskkyyy’s kleptocrat state, if they want it.

Can’t wait for Yaweah to stop this.
Washington Post. CIA. Billions to Ukraine. Billions more to Ukraine. CIA Washington Post. Billions to Ukraine. Repeat After Me.
Next to NY Times, WAPO is the most egregious psyop propaganda rag in the world. They publish this nonsense to try to normalize it. It is not normal. This money is going to pay for the Brandon Putin Military Industrial Complex Grifter War On Freedom.
The USA has no strategic interest whatsoever in Ukraine. None.
All that wasted money.
I want hardening of the power and water supply grids against sabotage and EMP attacks.
I want reduction of wasteful spending that pushes the national debt ceiling.
I want our money spent for our citizens (not illegals) here.
NO
How much unaccounted for money and weapons are we going to send to Ukraine? The list of some of the things we are funding for that nation reads like a list of funding usually given to democrat controlled cities in the U.S. We are funding their D.E.I. initiatives for goodness sakes!
We don’t user the M-60 any more but we made 15,000 of them. Pull them off the used car lot and send them to Ukraine.
Russian “Dragons Teeth” are a joke - they are not anchored and can easily be pushed aside.
The training required to become proficient in Combined Arms Warfare is immense. One cannot climb aboard an M1, Bradley, or Striker turn the key on, and go fight. Combined arms warfare requires the integration of Combat, Combat Support, and Combat Service Support operations. It would take years to make uninitiated soldiers capable of conducting those operations.
