If the trend continues, Zelensky will be richer than Bezos and Musk combined.

No safe drinking water in Jackson Mississippi, Flint and lead in Chicago's drinking water. But billions for weapons???? U.S is fast becoming a third world country. Life expectancy 76 years compared to 84 in countries like Australia.
Let them eat cake!
Money Laundering.
More money for MIC and all those invested in them.
It's fairly obvious that Biden loves the war bro. Makes fossil fuels incredibly expensive and aids the push to zero carbon whilst giving the blame entirely to some nutjob in Russia. This is why we prop up the Ukranians. This is why we enable the war.
Why is no one talking about Wall Street over speculation of oil fueling Russians war and destroying America why? Wake up America let the casino crumble

Any retard knows at this point that we have many….many Americans auditing this aid with Ukraine. So Breaking Points here and their loose pro-Russian stance can F-off with their lies at this point. Plus you keep bringing on ole Glen Greenwald. Probably the biggest pro-Russian grifter besides tulsi and tucker.
I really like what Saagar mentions at the 7:25 (roughly) mark – no one is against helping, but Europe needs to pull their fair share. Right now, it seems very much like the US is footing the entirety of the bill. If I were a European nation, especially eastern, I’d had a vested interest in making sure Russia is kept in check. Right now, it seems like they’re expecting their wealthy uncle that is the US of A to pay for everything. Unless I’m unaware of something currently happening, we need to put our foot down & tell them to help lift the load.
This is total horse shit Biden can't leave office quick enough our economy is going to crap but yes let's send more of our hard earned $ to a more corrupt country than the one we live in smh
Can we dump our government over this?
Are all the flag in their twitter/facebook/social media handle people finally ready to start over with a clean slate? Not one more dollar for the US war in Ukraine.
Jesus Christ 😂 stop feeding them money WE need here in the homeland 😂
Edit: they literally are just spending our money however they want 😂 I need to get out of here. There has to be at least one competent country, right?!
Are we not selling them "debt"? I say we but I mean they, our military industrial masters offloading their reserves
It's because they are laundering the money while telling you that it's going towards Ukraine. This is why they no longer want to keep a record of the military equipment they are sending.. zero transparency.
This was an incoherent 9min Saagar rant.
The money is all going to defense contractors. Now understand why no discussion?
LOL! Why is Saagar dunking on the percent of GDP argument? That's how the whole world works and is the only way to make a fair comparison.
And Trump got impeached for asking whats up with all that Ukraine-Biden relationship…
Somebody needs to find their secret accounts. They're getting some major kickbacks from this money they're just giving away……while Americans don't even have drinkable water.
The corruption stinks to high heaven.
What the hell is this? Why do they continue to give that corrupt regime billions upon billions of dollars? The inflation worsens as they print more money, and soon a recession will strike and obliterate us!
OMFG>. There are US citizens starving and living under bridges. Use that money to build housing for poor people, what a bunch of total bastards.
Why don't they ask Americans if they agree to send tens of billions of dollars abroad? They have already sent 65 billion to that corrupt dictatorship in Kiev this year, which is absurd. I'm positive that less than 1% of Americans will support such madness.
The President should have sole authority over military aid towards Ukraine. The President is the commander in chief of our armed forces and it is his responsibility to direct foreign military interventions. You two are more afraid of Ukrainian victory than you are if Russian nuclear strikes on Ukraine
Remember when 6 billion would solve world hunger?
Is that how they were able to move assets for Ukraine offensive under Russia's nose
The $300 mil/day we spent in Afghanistan is chump change.
But when we spend a stink'in nickel on the American people, it will be called "socialism" and be debated endlessly before it dies an untimely death…
We live in a Kleptocracy people.
Little over a month to boot all these people out!! Make it your mission!!!
…. And yeah Jack sh1t for US citizens that aren't wealthy.
Our country is going to hell, farmers need a break, schools and academics are going crappy woke etc…….DC is shoveling billions of taxpayers money to a country that we….America……has absolutely no strategic interest in…….this phony war………LETS GO BRANDON!!!
We can no longer say that the government doesn't have any money. Powell simply has to change numbers on a computer. The emperor has no clothes.
yeah lets send more money over seas while our schools are under funded
Remember when biden cut the covid checks from $2000 to $1400 because that was too much, but $12 bill is fine for foreign aid?
Americans themselves are to blame. They love giving money that has to do with killing foreigners. Their lives suck so they have to strike out at others to make their lives worse.
Someone in the elite group must be making bank. Who is it?
Please go research how US security assistance works and exactly how much is funneled back into the US through spending, taxation, etc. It is not a "blank check" to Zelensky's bank account. This is very misleading. Do a deep dive and figure this out and then do one of your monologues.
