GIBS ME MO’ BILLIONS!
Have a bake sale shrimpy.
Their EU buddies have some money.
That is HALF of its pre-war GDP.
This is NOT sustainable.
Better get that GoFundMe account set up pretty soon, then.
That amount will pale to amount needed for reconstruction once this fiasco ends. Who will pick up that tab???
The whole country is not with 1/2 of. that.
Cough it up freepers...and don’t forget to send a few billion to Israel.
Kinda tired of our tax dollars going overseas for something that we didn’t start and we have no real stake in.
Have a bake sale.
America’s chidren - paying for foreigner’s pensions and 2nd homes since 2022.
The could hold a bake sale.
Maybe they could ask Russia for the money ....
🤔. Wonder where that’ll come from. 😳
Volodymyr Zelensky Demands $40 Billion in Annual Budget Support for Ukraine
This is madness. Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sends a twitter message as if he’s ordering coffee from the guy down the street, telling NATO members not to forget to send him his $40 billion in “budgetary support.”[SOURCE]Budgetary support means we pay for the operational cost of Ukraine government, including govt payrolls, pensions, healthcare services, welfare and social services for the people in Ukraine.The crazy thing is, unless Trump stops it, our congress will give it to him. And even if Trump tries to stop it, congress will demand the payment as part of their appropriations process.Maybe it’s just me, but...
He sounds like a child who says they 'need' a larger allowance.
I wouldn’t send them another dime.
Even that won’t save them.
I think that if Russia hits the Dnieper, Russia just says, “okay we got what we wanted. Don’t try to come across.”
If Ukraine surrenders Russia would have to pay this and the rebuilding cost. Could bankrupt Russia.
