The Senate has voted overwhelmingly to approve $40 billion in military and associated aid to Ukraine in the ongoing war against Russia with every single Democrat voting in favor and only 11 Republicans opposed. Following universal support from House Democrats as well, this vote should conclusively put the lie to the notion that any anti-war progressives remain in either chamber as all Democrats appear to support writing multiple blank checks in support of endless war in Ukraine and endless taxpayer funds for weapons manufacturers.
Jimmy and American comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the curious circumstance of Republicans like Rand Paul assuming a position to the left of all Democrats when it comes to matters of war and peace.

So if you don't vote for Democrats who the hell does that help
Maybe if they just shut down they wouldn't have any way to spend money
Put your money in iShares US Aerospace & Defense ETF. It's an easy way to profit off of what's going to happen anyways. Somebody is going to make that money, it might as well be you. …and if by some unlikely stroke of fate the military industrial complex falls, you'll feel better about losing that money than you would if you lost it investing in something ethical.
I’m Voting for Trump to send the Dems a wake up call. 😂🤣🤪
Trump had asked for 8.6 billion to build the border wall and everyone complained about how he was going to get the money.
Thank God. I was worried layoffs were coming at Lockheed-Martin, Raytheon & the rest of the military industrial complex & their lobbyists. Well done. I can sleep at night.
You bullshitter. Being pro war it's a left "wrong" proposition. People on the right have always been America first and have to be false flagged into supporting defense through war after being attacked.
America is back babae!!!!!
🤡#1 It would NOT solve homelessness, but in FACT increase the homeless population while creating a new unending dependency.
🤡#2 It's goofy to compare the $40B to the music industry.. compare it to the yearly tax amount currently levied on the average American, or something similar.
This peoples no Brain ??? third World War ,,
The most currupt country in Europe is UKRAINE but the most currupt murderous country int he world is 🇺🇸
For glory's sake, for vengeance sake….war! 😎🤣🙏
When Democrats say 'buy american, america first, etc…' it is applauded. When Trump says it, it's an isolationist agenda.
"The United States, as the near unanimous vote to provide nearly $40 billion in aid to Ukraine illustrates, is trapped in the death spiral of unchecked militarism." ~ Chris Hedges, 'No Way Out but War.'
Democracy is a failed project. People are too stupid and keep re-electing all these clowns.
you don't know what Elaine Chao's "origin" is, Jimmy ????………..really ???
how are we benefiting from this?
