Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen just pledged another $10 BILLION to Ukraine!
Not The Bee ^ | Feb 23, 2023 | Staff

You know, the people in East Palestine don't even have clean drinking water and, only after Trump's visit, are they now getting any federal aid.

But we've still got plenty of moolah to give to Ukraine to fight a war with no end in sight.

Ummm....

$10 BILLION?

First off, how can the treasury secretary just pledge $10 billion like this? Doesn't Congress need to approve it? Just because you're over the treasury doesn't make the money yours, right?

Second, to what end? Will there EVER be any oversight of this money? Where exactly is it going?

And is there even a possible, viable solution in Ukraine? Are they just going to keep fighting Russia forever or until Russia gives up?

Lord forbid you talk about peace or compromise.

How are Republicans voting for this continual raid on the treasury?

That is the only way to explain all this dough going to a black hole called Ukraine.

They must have some really damning incriminating evidence to keep the money flowing like a river!.................

It pays to be a globalist playground.

Either that or our forever-war establishment has other incentives to keep pouring our tax dollars down Ukraine's gullet.

Biden can redirect military funds to this, the same way that Trump could redirect military funds to the border.

It’s the same principle.

The world will do whatever it takes to break Russia, just watch.

What gives Yellen the right to pledge our money to another country?

Strange is the absence of the Ukie war cheerleaders in this discussion, they must finally be figuring out what Biden’s Ukie war is all about.

It goes back to Trump’s first impeachment—”What’s going on in Ukraine?”

Big ‘ole WTF on this.

Looks like the Democrats really need to keep this war going until they’re sure they’ve got enough in the campaign coffers to defeat every Republican candidate both local and federal. It’s their handy-dandy way to collect campaign “donations” from all those foreign donors . . .
