The Biden administration on Friday announced a new $270 million security assistance package for Ukraine, which includes High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems and 36,000 rounds of ammunition.
John Kirby, the White House’s national security spokesperson, said the aid is the 16th drawdown of equipment under President Biden’s drawdown authority, which allows him to send allies weapons from the Pentagon’s stockpile. It is the second security assistance package Mr. Biden has approved this month. In early July, the administration announced a $400 million security aid package for Ukraine. Mr. Kirby said the U.S. will continue to aid Ukraine as it fights to fend off Russian invaders. “We will have more packages

Again, What legislation originating in the (urp) House of Representatives and confirmed by the Senate authorized this and all of the other “Ukrainian Aid” packages? What were the floor votes for each chamber? And who in the heck is fighting back against this?

The aid will end up on the dark web and sold for top dollar and the deals we’ll be brokered by Hunter and The Big Guy will get his cut as always.

He sure has a lot of power to spend money as he sees fit. Trump couldnt even spend money for our own border wall without having to go to court.

I'm sure that's enough to guarantee a Ukrainian victory; then we can bring the troops back home from Poland. /s

So.... the HairSniffer starts out by cutting America's domestic fuel supply, then continues by selling off the oil from the National Petroleum Reserve to the ChiComs , a million barrels at a time.
Now he is 'drawing down' the US military arms stockpile to supply Ukraine.
What percentage of the stockpile is he giving away?
Is OUR military still adequately supplied if The HairSniffer blunders us into a real shooting war with either Russia or China?
Are there any contracts in place to buy new arms to replenish America's stockpile?
Is The HairSnffer's plan to have America with NO fuel and NO arms in the stockpile when the ChiComs take over Taiwan and whatever islands in the Pacific Ocean meets their fancy?
Ever wonder what the ChiComs GOT in return for the Million$ that they gave to Krak-Head and The Big Guy?
Are we seeing what they purchased, right before out eyes?
Anyone with any knowledge, please chip in!

Might as well, there won't be enough members of our armed forces to use all of our equipment anyway.

Absolutely, #13. I worry when the Democrats start passing out cash around the world. I wonder what the Biden's cut might be...and how about the retread Obama team? How much does each of them get? Did you wonder how all the beautiful Obama retirement homes are being paid for? Book advances don't pay that much.

Okay, even a dimwit can understand that there is more going on in Ukraine than meets the eye. Everyone knew that Ukraine had a very serious corruption problem before the war and yet this administration and too many republicans want to keep shoveling millions to them? This is insane but it makes perfect sense if you are on the receiving end of this mutually beneficial corruption scam that they are running. The money goes to Ukraine, a nice fat cut is skimmed off the top and returned to various supporters of this corrupt system. We should follow the money but evidently that is not an option. Democrats surely do not want accountability and far too many Republicans most likely would not either. Washington DC is the epicenter of corruption from insider trading to foreign aid kick backs. Politics now in this country is largely an illegal money making scheme that creates millionaires out of so called public servants. Follow the money. I would bet it is like throwing a boomerang that comes right back at these war mongering for profit cretins.

Each point the Fed raises prime is 27 million a day additional interest on federal debt. So technically, that’s only 10 days of interest.

So, can Joe just wave his hand or sign an order and give money to anyone? I thought someone else controlled the purse strings.

No doubt many Americans are going to be surprised in the years ahead concerning the amounts of US taxpayers money that Biden is and will send to Ukraine that has been raked off through private and public corruption.

You mean $270 million to hard-lobbying American defense contractors?

If you can't play with your stuff directly, this is the next best thing. Drawdown YOUR stocks and spend new millions to buy replacement stock from your suppliers. Brilliant!
