This has become absurd. According to an AP report, Joe Biden is planning to ask congress for an additional $13.7 billion for Ukraine within a budgetary request for $47 billion spending package.
According to the report the Ukraine spending request will be inside a package for additional COVID-19 spending, Monkeypox spending and other domestic relief.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is asking Congress to provide more than $47 billion in emergency dollars that would go toward the war in Ukraine, the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ongoing monkeypox outbreak and help for recent natural disasters in Kentucky and other states.
The request, which comes as lawmakers are preparing to return to Washington and fund the government, seeks $13.7 billion related to Ukraine, including money for equipment, intelligence support and direct budgetary support. Shalanda Young, the director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, said that more than three-fourths of the $40 billion approved by Congress earlier this year has already been disbursed or committed.
“We have rallied the world to support the people of Ukraine as they defend their democracy and we cannot allow that support to Ukraine to run dry,” Young said in a blog post.
[…] In Friday’s request, the White House is seeking $7.1 billion to procure additional vaccines and for replenishing personal protective equipment in the Strategic National Stockpile, among other measures. Another $8 billion would go to accelerate research for next-generation vaccines and therapeutics.
Biden is also seeking $2 billion to continue COVID-19 testing programs, including an initiative to distribute free at-home tests that ended on Friday as the government says it is running short on funds. White House officials say they have some tests left in the stockpile, but not enough to provide free tests if cases sharply increase. (read more)
Well, I agree that it is absurd – but not unexpected. Remember, ‘The Big Guy’ or someone in his family now that he’s pResident, also known as #PedoHitler, gets a cut of all these billion dollar give aways to Ukraine. I wonder how much and to which Biden?
I totally agree. This Administration would only be happy to leave this Nation totally Bankrupt, as these sinners laugh
with sinister Greed.
Natali and Clayton Morris cover Ukrainian government fraud in their show. This will anger you.
NONE of the aid is going to help the Ukrainian people. ALL OF IT IS GOING TO UKRAINIAN POLITICIANS.
The segment that covers this fraud starts at the 7:30 mark.
It’s even WORSE than we thought, and Zelensky is laughing about it | Redacted with Clayton Morris
The criminals are buying silence over their crimes.
Those weapons will be sold to the Mexican Cartels. Whatever is left will go to the Blue Helmets.
He’s already expressed his contempt of “overfed” Americans. Sadly, these zionists have found dumbed down Americans to be easy pickings.
The rats are just cleaning out the rest of our money and filling their piggy banks before they flee.
Burn the ships
Arghhh matey!
To where? Someone might be waiting for them.
They know they can push through pretty much anything right now and are taking full advantage of it – with little to no resistance from Republicans.
Why would Biden stop laundering money now? It’s how he rolls.
And anyone who wants to pretend that this is for the Ukrainian people– Or ever has been has a disconnect for whatever reason. But altruism is not it
I am quite confident that all the little uniparty piggies have their snouts in the trough, too!
Dittos.
you betcha
No doubt.
WTF do we need with foreign non beneficial encumbrances? like balls on a rinoE ? worthless , shiffftless folks in a fake country . pretty soon that will be the US meme ..too
It really is as horrible as you express. Frustrating to say the least. And the greatest horror within this scenario is that our country actually has been overthrown by foreign entities using the enemies within.
This is something that I don’t believe most people even want to look at or acknowledge.
But it explains why America is systematically being destroyed by these evil minions.
I wonder who will end up owning Yellowstone, Yosemite, the other Federal Parks and lands?
At this rate it will be the CCP.
In the meantime, Russia has put the Zircon into mass production. You’re move, NATO.

Apparently the profit in selling US weapons on the black market is not sufficient so more cash is needed.
Obviously, the left needs more taxpayer money to fight us with. They are running out of ideas AND money.
PDJT blew their Impeachment when he immediately called for the transcript of the call to be released so everyone could see the truth. Heritage America’s enemies did not expect that.
Read the summary of President Trump’s call with Ukraine president about Biden
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2019/09/25/trump-releases-transcript-call-ukraine-president/2438300001/
This makes me even angrier. PDJT is a humanitarian, an adept business leader and a statesman. His detractors are vile and debauched.
Yet Trump was no match for them. Not seeing how a re-election will change that. Not seeing who his cabinet picks will be, what will be different. Sorry, letting Kushner and his college buddies destroy the US economy with lockdowns was reprehensible, as was incentivizing medical providers to diagnose “Covid” and have full liability immunity for anything “Covid”, which led to abuses and non-medical managers making medical decisions.
And you would have done so much better I assume
Unable to comment.
Don’t need a visit.
Don’t want to bunk with Bubba.
Kill the visitors. Comment.
I wouldn’t give GOPe, RNC, or the Silent Republicans in Congress air in a bucket.
For how they sat on their tails and never fought for Trump, I blame them as much for this sell out of our country as much as the Democrats.
I just can’t figure out which country they will all jet to after ruining this one.
Carolina Girl: Cuba and Zimbabwe come to mind.
.
Switzerland, Mustique, New Zealand, French Polynesia…
.
I keep thinking of the scene from Braveheart when Wallace’s forces signal the Scottish lords for reinforcements and they look upon them with disdain and slowly turn and ride away.
That’s how I see the GOPe and the establishment in general.
Of course we all know what happened next in the movie…..
Perfect analogy Grey Eagle.
Wherever Herr Sclaub is will welcome them all
Carolina Girl, that’s bec the days of 2 political parties are over. What we have is a uni-party. The uni-party has been existence for prob 40+ years, it’s very obvious now bec their is no consequences for their actions, so they are blatant and in our face. Uni-Party’s only opposition is We The People.
Qatar seems to be popular.
Or some nice chalet in the EU.
I think the Bushes have a large escape in Brazil.
The US dollar is about to crash due to the deficit and this kind of reckless spending. The only reason the dollar is high is because it’s doing well against the central bank worldwide currencies. (Fiat) Kinda like being the best looking heifer at the slaughter house. Protect yourself with precious metals. I am.
Pb is the new Au.
if you think precious metals are going to help you … i have a bridge for ya … ( it’s made of gold and sliver and wrapped in shiny stuff … ) … honest … scouts honor and all of the patriotic drivel … this ‘cesspool’ that the citizens of the ‘cesspool’ have created is dying a very quick death … ( paying any attention ‘jimbo ‘ ) … i suggest you and your loved ones … bend over … because you’ll be kissing that very soon … ( and finally praying wo’t work either … because … that great “CREATOR” who blessed this ‘nation’ with everything man/woman kind needed to live lives of pleasure and plenty … is taking all those blessings away … ( paying any attention yet ,,, jimbo ? ) think sodom and gomorrah on steriods … jimbo …….
It really is insane
does anyone have a list of republicans who continually vote for this?
Here’s the vote by state and rep on the Inflation Expansion aka Reduction bill.
https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/117-2022/h420
Thank you!
That’s why they attach this laundering to a bill that has covid relief – or some other humanitarian branded spending. Gives them cover to say they voted for that and had to swallow the bitter pill.
UNFORTUNEATLY i think its time we stop resisting and let them bring the collapse. its to late to stop it. all we could do is delay the inevitable. id rather it happen while im still able to protect my family instead of them trying to protect my feeble ass.
The only problem with that, and believe me I’ve thought the same thing too, is there are countries far more cruel that would jump at the chance of invading this country. Think the Iranian regime. Think the Chinese Communist Party. It could be so much worse. We can still save the country.
That’s silly. Think about the logistics of getting Iranian war fighters to US shores and contend with 300 million rifles pointed at them.
Same applies to China, will they invade only to make us by more Chinese products?
Your comment is my chuckle for the day.
Let the damn Ukraine drown in it’s own filth and corruption and f Biden with them.
.
At this point this is just blatant stealing.
.
Ukraine is going down taking the west with them, we are walking on razors and bleeding out slowly.
The American people have been and are currently being totally scammed. It is now down to two things; MAGA (Trump) or Totalitarian dictatorship. We will know in the next couple months which it will be. I am putting my money on MAGA (Trump).
What we are witnessing as an example, the backdrop and Biden speech is demonstration of panic and deperation.
My money is on the democrats with help from RINO’s. Trump will be arrested and that’s the rubicon. I will sacrifice my life doing the work.
Why is it absurd?
I am so tired of being robbed. I am especially tired of watching my adult child and her husband and my grandchildren being robbed.
This is sickening.
Just have to remove 535 from Congress, without them swamp cannot continue.
If it happens every week it’s not absurd it’s SOP (10% of that for the big guy)
The naysayers here sound like Neville Chamberlain.
Hi Lindsey Graham !!!
ah, the tiresome “chamberlain!” routine
Put a grifter in office, don’t be surprised if there is a lot of graft.
Put a pedophile in office, don’t be surprised if Podesta gets hired.
How much more are they going to steal from Americans
Get the gallows ready, cause they won’t repent
You vill own nothink and be happy. Says Schwab and his ilk Harrari
bad things need to happen to these 2 bit crooks
Biden’s and the Uniparty funding Nazi-Ukraine is stupid.
All their policies are stupid.
This SMART YOUNG LADY tells it like it is!
The Slush Fund must not be allowed to dry up.
How much of that $14B goes into the family bank accounts of the Bidens, Pelosis, and other members of Congress or will they have to wait for Zelenskyy to distribute it to the oligarchs and for them to make the appropriate bank deposits?
Maybe the Democrats think it’s their last chance for money laundering before the Mid-terms.
it appear to me that they know they have the election stolen
Funny but accurate about our Fed monetary policy…
Where’s the GD auditing of all of this?
Gotta keep the Mid-terms Campaign cash flowing …
under the table.
I don’t understand the money laundering claims. What I do understand, is that Russia will never lose this war. Biden & his friends (including lots of Republicans) are betting on a losing hand.
Once you see the “money laundering” going on
you will understand that they don’t really think that Ukraine can win.
Is there a complete total anywhere with how much money Ukraine has made in total with this so called war?
keep thinking elections will fix this…. that’s right where they want you
https://www.cnn.com/2022/09/03/us/jackson-mississippi-water-crisis-saturday/index.html
I wonder what a billion would buy in Jackson?
I am tired of these goldbrickers.
Nuts? This in insane.
A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you’re spending somebody else’s money.
” and pretty soon you’re spending somebody else’s money.” Ya my grand kids!!!! This country will be OVER before they are old enough to vote! I curse these evil doers in the name of the Lord G_d Almighty! Lord please let them truly reap what they sow personally. In the mighty name of JESUS! For the Lord judges fairly!
Anybody see the newest Paul Joseph Watson, in which he references the proposed settlement between Russia and Ukraine earlier in the year? Boris Johnson visited and blew it apart.
https://citizenfreepress.com/breaking/new-paul-joseph-watson/
perfidious albion
Lol. Zelenskyy isn’t authorized to settle with Russia.
Oh he!!, why not just give Zel the whole damn country, and rename us the New Ukraine.
For the sake of us taxpayers, I hope Putin takes over the entire landmass of Ukraine quickly so there’s no one left in Ukraine to launder all this money to!
Help us out, Vlad!
send them The US Constitution cause we obviously don’t need it anymore .It was the most valuable word .. salad ever ..till it isn’t .
Biden Family. Slush. Fund.
Pelosi Family. Slush. Fund.
Shall I continue the list???!!!😆
I expect that the GOPe will be most vocal in political support for this.
All wheels get greased and it will hurt them to a degree in the midterms. Which is exactly what they are hoping for.
If Trump is still politically viable, a GOPe majority after the elections would be nothing short of disastrous for them.
“For Ukraine”, the USG money laundering center, rriiiiiiight. The crats are growing used to the billion dollar paydays.
Send 87 of the 87,ooo tax Auditors to the Ukraine to find out where American tax dollars are going.
Biden, Graham, Pelosi,
Ukraine hasn’t made any gains in over 3 months. To what end is this money going to? Enough is enough already. This is graft in overdrive.
Because a large portion of the allocated funds are not going to any war effort…
It’s welfare to keep their government afloat.
and, more, the u.s. military industrial complex.
Our politicians’ slush funds. Ukraine is a country so deep into corruption, it’s pitiful.
Strategems in the ancient Chinese book* The Art of War:
Insert spies and manipulators in your adversary.
Manipulate your adversary to exhaust itself.
****
Behold the US/aligned actions vis a vis Ukraine:
Fiat money systems being pushed even further into over-indebtedness and over-inflation.
Sanctioning nations cutting off their own energy lifeblood, by the predictable result of their sanctions.
(They were already weakened by their tectonic energy-hobbling measures justified by false premises – “environment”.)
Weapons being drained from the US inventory.
****
“To what end…?”
Looks like a plan, proceeding apace.
(* The Chinese “wrote the book”, literally:
https://suntzusaid.com/ )
it goes to pay ukrainian generals and govt officials
But 10% goes to the Big Guy. By the time all the “Big Guy’s” get all their percentages, not much gets to the Ukrainians.
in reading the facts, after going through the Propaganda being fed, by National News Media, it is time to
put the Leaders of this Nation on Trial. The severe weakening of this Country, now apparent, is in design
with their beliefs, Contrary with the Constitution and Bill of Rights, being ignored. FREDOM LOVING CITIZENS, along with those in the Republican Party, now need to stand up, and hold this Democratic Party responsible
for the severe and dangerous weakening of this, once GREAT Nation, under God.
I am replying to the Post above, to what end is the outpouring of U.S. money going to. Actually, I have given my reply in my beginning statement, but I will reiterate, it is doing nothing more than weakening this Nation even more, by the current
Administration.
We’re not in a time where we can mince words about the consequences of selfish behavior. We’re in completely un-chartered territory with a totally separated New Class of individuals developing through the practice of “modern monetary theory” (Printing Money). This class of very disturbed people is completely galvanized by their common interest in the most potent unbreakable economic tie the World has ever seen. It’s unprecedented. There have been failed attempts of this Keynesian Madness always being kept in check by forces of reality, but with the United States undertaking the debacle there’s nothing to keep it in check until reality demolishes everything. This new class of bots animated by cognitive dissonance through their enslavement to their short-term monetary advantages will never admit their policies are leading to total destruction.
“Houston we got a problem.”
