Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited the United States for the first time since the war started in his country. He used this visit to meet with Biden and address the United States Congress.
“This struggle will define in what world our children and grandchildren will live and then their children and grandchildren,” Zelenskyy told a joint session of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives.
“The world is too interconnected and interdependent to allow someone to stay aside and at the same time to feel safe when such a battle continues.”
U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken earlier announced that the United States would send $1.85 billion in aid to Ukraine, including the Patriot air defense missile system.
Zelensky has asked many times for help from Western countries. Many GOP lawmakers are leery of providing a “blank check” to Ukraine, though they support the country.
Newsmax reports that the United States has sent about $50 billion in assistance to Kyiv as Europe’s biggest land conflict since World War Two drags on, killing tens of thousands of people, driving millions from their homes and reducing cities to ruins. If the aid is passed, the total wartime aid from the U.S. to Ukraine will be over $100 billion.
A group of Republicans are calling on an audit of the aid provided to Ukraine with a hefty U.S. dollar price tag. This group is led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. She is leading a resolution calling for an audit of the more than $54 billion in military and economic assistance approved by Congress since the Russian invasion.
“The American people, the taxpayers of this country, deserve to know where their money is going and how it is being spent,” the Georgia Republican said last month. “We’re ignoring the dangers happening in our country while we are completely protecting another country’s border and waging a proxy war with Russia.”
“Most of my constituents do not wish to have their money sent to Ukraine, especially not without oversight or an audit,” said Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.
“I will oppose giving more money to Ukraine while our own southern border remains open to an invasion led by drug cartels,” said Rep. Mary Miller, R-Ill.
So we have an extremely corrupt Democrat leader, showing support for an extremely corrupt Ukrainian criminal, and we’re supposed to think that’s a wonderful thing? They should both be in prison!
Now, about that scam regarding monies being voted out of the taxpayers’s pockets and laundered through Ukraine back into certain individuals’s pockets…
A total waste of time and money. Our funds should be spent in our nation, not in, or others, to fight their wars. Shame on this administration for this treasonous action.
Oh…That picture is disgusting. As if he doesn’t have enough problems already he aligns himself with Piglosi?
To Thank US for our weapons
SEND HIM BACK TO UKRAINE WITH WHAT HE HAS ALL READY >:
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NEED THE MONEY TO USE IT FOR THE TAX PAYERS THAT PAID >:
FIRST THINK CONGRESS NEEDS TO DO IS STOP ALL FOREIGN AID >
THERE IS NO REASON WHY 350,000,000 MILLION PEOPLE SHOULD
TAKE CARE OF 5 BILLION >?????

Zelensky is a grifter, a money launderer, and a welfare queen. No more. No less. I agree with MTG…a full, detailed audit must be made mandatory. We also should not give that fake ‘freedom fighter’ another penny unless and until our southern border is fully secure and all invaders expelled. Keep in mind, none of this would be happening if President Trump was still in our White House.
This circus is the watershed event in the beginning of the collapse of the rotting American empire. This what we get for allowing the scum of our society to deconstruct and destroy the Constitutional Republic that our Founding Fathers gave us, and that millions of Americans were wounded, maimed, crippled or killed to hand down to us.
That our ‘leaders’ could invite the Klaus Schwab transvestite puppet to speak in our Congress, is beneath pathetic.
With all the money we’ve sent, he coudln’t be bothered to put on a suit to address Congress???? Wow.
There should be a full audit of military and financial aid sent to Ukraine. And, Zelenskyy should produce concrete evidence of efforts to achieve a peaceful resolution. Monies and equipment now being sent to Ukraine are propagating killing and destruction with no endpoint.
Rather curious. Got some new ideas. But investigating this matter I came across some sensational website where I could find complete information on this question in one place. Compacom.com offers not only one personal opinion but the chance to compare various authors, experts and companies and provides arguments so that you could choose the one close to you.
Good – so Zelinsky and his cronies can buy more super expensive properties in Switzerland. And they arrive in style – in brand Lambos and Ferrari’s. I bet brokers in Switzerland love that.
