“ Don’t forget - 10% for the Big Guy! /s”
Yep.
And Putin gets his cut, too.
Without him none of it happens.
He has to keep “fighting” and invading but never winning.

.....”....Vice President Kamala Harris announced a $1.5 billion aid [sic] package for [Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and a whole host of tax-dollar-sucking defense [sic] contractors who are fueling this war by] Ukraine in its war against Russia at the Summit for Peace [sic] Saturday in Switzerland.”
There...! fixed/corrected that....!!!!
After 2 minutes of research (which I already knew) I can confidently note (with a few paragraph breaks added for readability):
Question: Has US aid to Ukraine included funds for government retirement obligations, salaries for government employees and the equivalent of US Welfare/Snap payments for Ukrainian citizens?
ChatGPT
Yes, U.S. aid to Ukraine has included funds that support various aspects of the Ukrainian government and its citizens, beyond just military assistance.
The aid has been comprehensive, addressing different sectors to help stabilize and support Ukraine amid the ongoing conflict. Here are the main areas where U.S. aid has been allocated:
Government Operations:
Salaries for Government Employees: Part of the aid package has been directed towards ensuring that Ukrainian government employees, including civil servants, teachers, and healthcare workers, continue to receive their salaries.
This is crucial for maintaining the functionality of the Ukrainian government and public services during the conflict.
Government Retirement Obligations:
Aid has also helped Ukraine meet its pension obligations, ensuring that retirees continue to receive their pensions. This support is vital for the financial stability of retired citizens who rely on these payments.
Social Welfare Programs:
Equivalent of Welfare/SNAP Payments:
The U.S. has provided humanitarian aid that includes financial assistance to vulnerable populations in Ukraine. This can be seen as equivalent to welfare or SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) in the U.S.
This aid helps provide food, shelter, and other basic needs to displaced persons and those affected by the conflict.
Economic Support:
The aid also extends to economic stabilization efforts to support Ukraine’s economy, helping to prevent a complete economic collapse which would have severe repercussions on the general population.
Humanitarian Assistance:
Beyond financial support, the U.S. aid includes humanitarian assistance such as medical supplies, food aid, and other forms of direct relief to those in need.
The aim of this comprehensive support is to ensure that Ukraine can maintain a functioning government and provide essential services to its citizens during the conflict, thereby sustaining public morale and societal stability.
Wish I had Joe’s checkbook. I could retire comfortably.
Actually the Missus and I are comfortably retired but I’d still take the checkbook, Give ‘Ol Joe his 10% of course.
As for the source of these funds I think every US Gubmint agency has a huge slush fund.
Since the 2008 most every budget has been by Continuing Resolutions - take every US Department - boost it annually by 10% or so and boom - huge money everywhere including Covid mitigation funds. Sigh.
Now I’ll ask for the totals since say 3/2021 when Slow Joe watched the Ruskie buildup on the border of Ukraine without saying or doing a thing prior to the invasion, BRB.
($1.5 billion for weapons at a peace conference. You can’t make this stuff up.)
Yeppers
And that’s ALL she can actually do
Zeepers be damned.
This is stupid.
The US has publicly declared that millions of children have some form of food insecurity at any given time. Likewise with millions of other Americans who are housing-impaired.
The fact is that there are also millions of other Americans lacking medical care, prescription medications, money for gas, heat, electricity and water. Veterans not getting benefits they are due. and on and on and on and on.
Yet the leftist warmonger MIC supporting ghouls in this country prefer to set up a perpetual Marshall Plan for the UKRAINE....all because it was used as a base for corruption, vice, greed and fraud by Biden and cronies.
Old Goat just wants to “Build Back Better”, just not America!
Is she describing setting on Wades lap?
Support for veterans? Meh!
