Senators Jack Reed (D-RI) and Jim Inhofe (R-OK) have jubilantly reported a preliminary agreement, after a closed door session of the Senate Armed Services Committee, which will add an extra $45 billion to President Joe Biden’s military spending plans. That’s $45 billion MORE than Biden had requested, further ballooning an already obscenely bloated Pentagon budget.
Jimmy and American comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the ongoing struggle to pay for the basic needs of the American people while arms manufacturers continue to get everything they want and more.

You get my vote….I'm tired
Why doesn't Ukraine just mass print it's own Fiat based inflationary Currency for its' war effort?
Why will they ever stop? We do nothing when they kill our children, we go to the funeral, and go home. So what good is it to know something when absolutely nothing will be done but whining. Maybe we could whine louder?
How many States in US ? 1 B illion $$$ could send to each State to beef up the economy but I GUESS investors want more money to buy a ticket to HEAVEN !!!
The shit you all need to be standing in the middle of the street protesting against tearing shit up about you are not BLM antifa ? Where you all at this is as messed up as it gets
How much of that is for the "big guy" ?
Become a member of a Ukrainian neo nazi group and they will send you an expensive high tech weapon that you can sell on for baby formula
All them dumb mofo that was complaining about Elon spending that much of his own money, but don't hear a pep about this
This is why we don’t have healthcare
A corrupt government to the core, both Dems and Republicans Men and Women influent decision makers are only striving for their own welfare, they're employed by big corporates. American people should go back to the constitution and read: < when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing variably the same object, even if it's designed to reduce them into absolute despotisms, it is their right and it is their duty to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security>. Time has come for the Americans to awake from their induced coma and claim back their true freedom.
Voting…
All they're doing is stealing tax payer money..stealing as much as possible..
Politicians have no clue how to fix anything..look at everything they control..it's disgusting.
Send 1 billion to Ukraine but won’t feed our own children. Absolutely disgusting.
Biden said nothing would fundamentally change he kept his promise.
The Deep states investment in killing JFK will go down as the highest return investment in the history of the world.
It’s like Gregory Mannarino always says; when the price of oil falls, thousands of innocent people somewhere are going to die. That’s all part of the cost of propping up our fiat petrodollar.
bu bu but but orange man bhaaadddd!
Well the neocons that migrated to Dem party under Trump is getting their Christmas. Their goal is perpetual war, military industrial complex
bu bu bu but no mean tweets? That has to account for something right? right? RIGHT!?
Add the 2300 billion dollar cost of the Afghan war, imagine what u could have done for your own country with that…..
Just buy a ukrainian passport it is cheap 5000$ and you get everything western governments deny their citizens
. More bombs bullets n bullshit.
Y'
[Republic arms manufacturing]
[Democrat arms manufacturing]
Ya goofy m8te from Australia
Why they fuckin around just make it an even Trillion 🤡🌎
Help Odessa NY
America’s generosity is great Jimmy! Weren’t They leading Nato to destroy Yugoslavia then Serbia under Operation Allied Forces? (Whatever that means) And Libya under UN resolution 1973? .. Wait also Somalia UN resolution 1838? And Yemen UN resolution 1950? I almost forgot Afghanistan under the “International Assistance force” (Not a made up term at all lol)… Wait!! 🧐 Does the UN work for U.S & Nato? Funny cause the State of Israel has been condemn in 45 UN resolutions yet not a peep out of U.S or NATO.. I guess U.S & Nato do not attack their masters.. PS: Forgot Iraq but that was cause Iraqis had WMD’s .. No wait they didn’t .. Oh yeah right I think they drove the planes on 9/11?
We need to build a wall
The military didn’t loose that war. The politicians did
Here we sit …
Well you need to invest money to earn money, no?… /s
It's worse it's every month one billion every month.
The establishment didn’t pick Trump….. that’s why they trained you to hate him.
We want a strong military we don't need to give all the money to the Ukraine depending on how all the conspiracies are planned out all that money is tracked
Let me guess, there is some election coming up ? and some need corrupt money ?
👍
Can I quote Tupac here? "We got money for war but can't feed the poor?" He caught onto the government's bullshit way back when.
They don't gift the money, it's debt. Ukraine will have to pay it back with interest.
I can’t wait to see the show here in Bakersfield jimmy thank you for coming down this way . Hope to see kurt and your wife as well you guys are great . Thanks for the hospitality you all showed down at two roads . DORE “24!!!
The democrats are going to turn over a broken America to the next administration .
55 billion dollar goes to weapons manufacture owners pocket not Ukraine, and maybe they share some of the money with politicians, and then weapons manufacturer send some weapons to Ukraine, and of course the weapons are 100% overpriced. To stop the Hunger around the World it cost 32 billion dollars, at least for one year. So imagine what they could do with 55 billion dollar, not only they will stop the Hunger around the world for one year, but also provide those people with Medicine, and Dental care.
Just putting it out there. If the government is pushing and lying about military spending on “wars” for profit, and medical spending on “pandemics” for profit, what makes you think they are honest to you about “climate change”?.
FYI… The number of stars a General has, relates directly to the number of men he commands. Omar Bradley was the last surviving General of World War 2 to have 5 Stars. It would take another actual World War to have more 5 Star Generals. Unless… the woke military decides to give them out as flash or bling. Could happen.
In any other democratic country, there would be a weekly Jan 6 event. 🤷🏻♂️
Their friends are getting rich and the big guy gets 10%. This is madness that the American people are paying for. Wait till the food shortages start.
Did I grow up all screwed up? When I was a kid in school, my Mom fixed my lunch. In grade school I came (walked) for lunch and in high school I brown bagged it. Why the hell should we be paying to feed someone else's kids, that's the parent's job.
Time for a global uprising of we the people. We had protests here yesterday in the uk over spending. we too feed the elite and it is time they all Fcuked off out of politics. perhaps they could be stripped of their wealth and sent packing off to Rwanda.
As Chris Hedges articulates this behavior….." The looting of the national treasury ".
