“ This presents a problem for our nation. The background here is very concerning. This is why I said, “at a certain moment, likely as a part of a media question, someone is going to ask President Trump why a certain action was taken by his administration in the Ukraine conflict. President Trump will respond by saying, “we didn’t do that.” The puzzled media will repeat the question. President Trump will again say, no one in my administration did that. …. And suddenly, things will reveal.”
“Biden was never in control of the Ukraine operation. This is something that started within the U.S. State Department (CIA division) long before Biden was installed. President Trump is now having to deal with a geopolitical consequence that comes from this collaborative IC operation that is obviously no longer exclusive to the USA. Other intelligence agencies are now too far enmeshed to safely retreat.”
we probably don’t really know what we have spent in Ukraine. perhaps over 750 Billion dollars...
very wasteful if we don’t get any benefit.
Sadly, but not surprisingly, you are correct my FRiend. There are many layers to peel back. I just hope they aren’t buried for 61+ years like the 1963 JFK data and info.

An unelected dictator, Zelenskyy admits that
<><>half of the $350B we sent him is “MISSING.”
<><>The Biden govt stupidly spent $200B MORE than Europe,
<><>Europe’s money is guaranteed,
<><>while the US will get nothing back.
<><>Z refuses to have Elections,
<><>he’s very low in Ukrainian Polls,
<><>he was singularly good at playing Biden “like a fiddle.”
Yes, a Con Man extraordinaire. Billy Sol Estes or Bernie Madoff are pikers compared to Z.

Something I’ve heard several times from Zeepers is that Biden wasn’t sending MONEY to Ukraine. No, no, no. Biden sent weapons. And old weapons at that. Weapons we didn’t want. But certainly we weren’t sending them actual MONEY.
Aaaaaaaaaaaand ... $100B of the money we didn’t send them is gone.
The unspoken truth is that the Russians have the upper hand and their army is continuing to advance day by day. These “peace talks” are detrimental to the army in the field - who wants to die defending this patch of ground that likely to be negotiated away? Today’s ridiculous demand may become tomorrow’s bargain.
Yes.
“On November 2, 1963, Ngô Đình Diệm, the first president of South Vietnam, was assassinated in a CIA-backed coup.”
If Z hasn’t left by now, he’s certainly a dead man walking. The only reason Z hasn’t skedaddled with his billions is the death threats from the Banderites. There is no CIA, soon no MI6 to protect him.
Dead if he stays, dead if he goes. Time is of the essence.
Oh yeah, kill Z and blame everything on him. If we could only find those off shore accounts of Z’s with that missing $175Billion in them.
I’m sure he had help. $100 billion buys a lot of friends.
I have heard, and believe, to be true, that the resources to Ukraine was a mixture of materiel and money. As for materiel, some may have been items we did not use anymore as we replaced it with superior equipment. But, it was much better than cots and blankets sent by Obama. I remember high tech artillery pieces sent - the ATACMS that gave a range to reach into Russia. I would like to have DOGE study the flow of resources and ascertain any Swiss bank accounts in Z’s name.
Just sayin’

None of this (even if true, which most of it is not) justifies Russian attempting to subjugate Ukraine or our letting it happen. This is not about Zelensky. It is about the freedom of Ukraine.
Yes, you are wise, my FRiend. I really thought that Z’s journey to other countries last week to stand up Bessent was because he was feathering his escape route of asylum. It looks (to me) at this time, that his asylum will be in the UK or France. Hmmm, I wonder why Macron and Starmer are coming to Washington for an audience with PDJT next week?
Just musin’

With respect, I disagree - I think Zelenskyy is just a puppet- the ones to whom
he is passing the money are the biggest scammers in history.
The Deep State would never let a sawn off fag like Zelinskyy actually keep that kind of money.
I think most of it came back here to the usual suspects we here on this board always talk about. I bet that’s the missing $100 billion
When I read that Ryan Routh spent a lot of time and effort in Ukraine (latest was 3 days before the assassination attempt), I wondered if he was bankrolled by Zelenskyy. He doesn’t look like he has the training for it, but who knows?
To be fair, it may have been "10% for the Big Guy".
Ukraine’s GDP before the war was $250 Billion per year. There is no way Europe or the U.S. will be paid back.
