I agree this is an incorrect statement that completely mischaracterizes the current situation. This is a money laundering operation not a proxy war. Basically, none of the money has been accounted for. It is very likely that less than half of the $100 billion sent to the Biden's stooges in Ukraine has actually been spent on war materials and supporting the people who are actually setting off the fireworks. The rest is being distributed among Biden and his cronies. Why do you think that every single Democrat holding office in the Federal government is all in on this massive scam?
Of course the ones profiting the most from all of this are actually the Russians. They got an extra $100 billion from their energy exports alone in 2022 compared to 2021 for less output. Incredible! And those funds went into Putin and his cronies' pockets. They are willing partners in this charade and they are likely to end up with half of Ukraine to boot. Yes, the Democrats running this show really know what they are doing! And those who repeat the endless nonsense being spewed by our media shills about all of this show their ignorance on a daily basis.
The many presumptions that results of events were intended results, by any side, denies credibility but handily feeds many conspiracy theories. The greater reality is more likely ineptitude all around - which in so many ways all sides have demonstrated.
