The White House hopes that a “one-and-done” funding package will bypass the deadlock with congressional Republicans and free up enough aid for Ukraine to last until the 2024 presidential election.
Oh, fuck yes, please let this go through. At least then some of the worry about Republicans pulling stunts can be eased.
It’s all going to go to Israel now
Meanwhile here in America…
Healthcare, please.
These amounts of money is not actual money but military equipment that already exists in american warehouses, often overpriced(priced as new, even though they are about to be decommissioned). The alternative is to use missiles and tanks as payment for doctors.
The cost is that eventually, the american military will need to replace that equipment by buying new stuff. But thats a different conversation.
And 100 billion is nothing in what the defense budget is yearly. It’s a joke.
