During an interview aired on Friday’s edition of “The Issue Is,” White House National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby responded to critics of spending money on Ukraine when there are problems in America by saying that the war is about the very concept of independence, the war “has absolutely had an effect on the American people” by contributing to inflation, and that if Russia gets away with the invasion, the cost “will be exorbitantly much higher than the cost that has been expended to keep Ukraine in the fight and to keep them in that fight successfully.”
Host Elex Michaelson asked, “You’ve heard from critics. There are folks who say, look, we feel for the people of Ukraine, but we’ve got, for example, thousands of homeless on the streets of California. We can’t afford to take care of our own people, why are we spending so much money in another country? What do you say to those people?”

No, it’s Bidens’ war to cover up his corruption, because both Ukraine & China have the goods on him, to the hilt.
Yes but keeping the war going in Ukraine distracts from all that.
Another Biden’s White House shell game with no pea.
That is because this one is based on kickbacks and sex trafficking — main tenets of the Biden crime family.
Where are the reporters brave enough to ask: “Some people are saying ........” and insert some outrageous (but true) claim that will make everyone gasp?
Kinda like a verbal pie inna face.
“Inflation is a money supply issue. Only our government can inflate our money. And it has.”
Not always, and not exclusively.
The laws of Supply and Demand still apply.
A surge in demand, or a shortage of supply WILL cause inflation in the products in question. And if those products (food & energy) are essential basics, that product inflation will permeate the entire economy.
Ask Adam Smith, he’ll tell ya.
Where are all the Ukraine supporters on here to say how much they Biden for throwing away our money on this?
I believe that a monetarist, such as Milton Friedman, would say that supply and demand in products contributes to price fluctuation in products. But that inflation is always monetary phenomenon driven by money supply.
When one restricts the supply of food and energy, the most essential base of the entire worldwide economy...the very fuel for all other economic activity...you will most certainly see the same amount of money chasing far fewer goods and services.
No different than an increased amount of money chasing the same amount of goods and services.
The net result of both phenomenon is increased prices for everything.
The cost to Pigboy Joe might be higher...
It’s also deliberately supplying only enough to keep the war dragging on, so as to simultaneously screw over the US, Ukraine AND Russia. China wins, and they bought lots of artwork.
Biden’s War on Energy is financing Putin’s War on Ukraine.
Sounds about right
Word salad insanity.
They haven’t been given any talking points to refute it so they’ll just pretend this news story doesn’t exist.
What do you recommend ?
Trump in the WH would be a start, but I’m not sure voting works anymore.
I agree voting is becoming less true and thereby attaining legitimate people to elected office is nearing impossible. I lived during a more innocent time. May the truth and light scatter the roaches for currently the roaches are undeterred by the truth and light
