Better than nothing right now, Congress needs to unfuck itself. The free world needs to defeat putin and russia.
Agreed. Though I worry that’ll take pressure off the cantankerous legislators that are blocking true support for Ukraine.
How did US politics get to a point where Russia is tacitly if not explicitly being supported by half of the electorate? And all because of an 🍊 with an IQ to match?
:(
I doubt many people will make a profit on this, other than Trump himself.
Worry all you like. Kicker is a lot of people have been screaming at Biden/his administration to send aid to Ukraine again. I am definitely not his #1 fan, though he’s trying and that should be recognized more often, despite his faults.

No.
He is merely the lesser of two evils.
Chat GPT is getting really good. Here’s a letter from a US politician.
That’s just drawing from a special Presidential fund. I forgot the name. It is only a couple of billions in total, and must last for a year and for everything the administration wants to support without Congressional approval.
And if the $60 billion main aid package is intended for a year, then $300 million is the equivalent of less than 2 day’s worth.
“A drop on a hot stone”, as we say in Germany.
300 million? Come on, man. We fined a single sex pest slash business fraudster more than that. Surely we can find more to help an entire nation.

They’re a bit late to the dance.
$300 million is next to nothing.
Apologies, there are traitors holding our wallet that would rather see Putin steamroll through NATO. This is just what Biden could find in the couch cushions.
US defense officials said they had managed to find the $300 million for Ukraine by making savings on recent purchases by the Pentagon, but stressed the need for Congress to pass more aid.
Unfortunately, until Congress unfucks itself, we have only scraps that we can legally send.
