“We know that our job is to continue our military support to Ukraine so that they are in the best possible position on the battlefield,” said Sullivan.

“Amazing psyop campaign.”

Look at the psyop campaign for the vax, 24/7 for years and no let up.

I’m taking bets on how much biden will give ukraine for “rebuilding” when the war is over. My guess is 100 billion.

And this is why we have almost 1,000,000,000,000 in military spending. People don’t realize that we stand a good majority of it overseas and those countries get to spend their money on other stuff.

Can you blame them? Russia went into a country they had no business going into. Ukraine did not have the ability to fight for themselves so we either let Russia get away with thievery or we fight for them and if you think Russia was gonna stop at Ukraine, you’re crazy, Russia is the bad guy here.

Not our business, and not our money. We are $31 TRILLION in DEBT.

I can't think of anything that would get Putin angrier than to learn that Americans are willing to sacrifice their pensions and health care insurance to aid the Ukraine, the 3rd most corrupt government on the planet!

DNC fundraising for 2024. Meanwhile, the GOP cower in the corner.

Mitch is mumbling and bumbling along, ready to deal with the despicable Schumer and sign over trillions of new debt for an "omnibus" money printing bill. With 'friends' like Mitch, who needs enemies?

How much is it worth in US national treasure to see that Ukraine wins this war in which we have no vital national security interest? I think Russia is realizing they underestimated how much this was going to cost them and they may be up for a face saving solution. Time to start pushing the two sides to the conference table. If Ukraine has to cede some of the eastern territory with heavy Russian populus, then they need to do it else they need to be told the unending stream of US treasure comes to an end.

Remember 2 weeks to flatten the curve, and churches to be opened on Easter, 2020?
The good old days... you're right, once they got their hooks in us, there's no let up forever.

Well put and I agree 100%. And we can’t forget that a peace framework was worked out in March, only to be shattered by Boris Johnson, at the behest of Biden.

“These Ukraine flag wavers are psychologically damaged.”

I think Elon has shown us enough from Twitter to know that they’re just ‘doing their job’...at least the ones in US.

However, I do agree with the above regarding other Western countries. The conservatives in those countries have been fully defeated by the Left, and they might as join their idiocy at this point.

“But the point is, the money supposedly given to Ukraine isn’t happening. All of that money is circulating inside what we call the Military Industrial Complex.”

...all because of UKRAINE. But nice try!

EyePatch McCain

He's a truly disgusting person, on par with other notable Neocons; Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger and Michael "The Head" McCaul.

“I’m taking bets on how much biden will give ukraine for “rebuilding” when the war is over. My guess is 100 billion.”

That actually depends on Russia. If they fully liberate Ukraine, then it’s up to Russia to rebuild it (and hopefully, for once, de-Nazify it). If not, we’ll have to split the bill. As to the cost to Russia, they’re picking up enough resources there to finance the rebuild, so they won’t have a problem paying for it.
