WASHINGTON (AP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will address U.S. military officers at the National Defense University on Monday as part of a last-minute push to convince Congress to provide more money for weapons before funding runs out.

President Joe Biden has asked Congress for $61.4 billion for wartime funding for Ukraine as part of a $110 billion package that also includes money for Israel and other national security priorities. But the request is caught up in a debate over U.S. immigration policy and border security. The U.S. has already provided Ukraine $111 billion for its fight against Russia’s 2022 invasion.

On Tuesday, Zelenskyy is expected to go to Capitol Hill and to meet with Biden at the White House.

I wonder who is paying for his trip ? We all know the answer….US taxpayers paying for his trip to beg for more taxpayers money….this is getting ridiculous, and the Zelensky stench is getting overwhelming.

Kick the grifter out of our country.

Also, anyone around him should watch the credit cards in their wallet. Ukraine is the top leader in the world when it comes to credit card identity theft.

As the illustrious Senator from Ohio said: “What will $61bil do that the original $111bil could not”?

The $110 billion package of your tax dollars includes a-n-o-t-h-e-r $65 billion for Ukraine, more money for Israel, and $14 billion for Biden’s immigration policy and border security.......NOT to stop illegals but to facilitate their entry into our communities.

The U.S. has already provided Ukraine w/ $111 billion tax dollars to pay its govt bills, employee pensions, keep businesses afloat, etc.

It is not known how much of your tax dollars reaches its fight against Russia.....what with the corruptness prevalent in Ukraine.

Imagine what Gen. George S. Patton, Jr. could have done with $100 billion. This is so pathetic.
