Explain then. What about the demographic would stop them from enforcing the law.
Does Congress have any controls regarding how much the arms cost ? Smells like a sweetheart arrangement for the arms dealers and manufacturers to me.
They just call Nick (we're on a first name basis) Cage and hope to God he gives them a good deal.
135 billion in ammo?
I’m just glad we’re able to help their economy

Yeah, I don't get why they so reluctant to call up more guys when they're supposedly running low on personnel.
Lol…..Their total GDP was around 150-75 billion prior to the war. Their economy is booming.
You don't know this because there's never been an audit on the money "sent". Show me evidence of where the "money" goes and I'll retract my statement.
Also, what is the US getting out of this other than "pumping up our own arms manufacturers"? Isn't that just great - thousands of men and women have been killed and we think it's just ****ing awesome! How sick.
Could you link a post where someone says it’s great that a lot of Ukrainians have died in this war?
Isn’t that Russia’s fault? You’re blaming the US for deaths because we are giving arms to the Ukrainians, who want them, to fight against an aggressor nation that invaded them? Bizarre.
How is this different than the USA Min wage pumpers, continuing to buy crap from China, or other low wage countries? We can not allow our kids to work for less than $20, but those ethnic kids in other countries.. "ehhh not my problem".
Ukrainians get slaughtered without our support. How sick.
So knowing that we have sent older tanks, weapon systems, ammo, etc, you think Ukraine is getting the full allotment of $X billion? Not only is it nonsensical, but the DoD provided testimony and inventory lists to Congress prior to each hearing on this stuff. It is insane to think otherwise.
Ukraine is getting older tanks that have been out of production since 1995, except for exports. In 2020, the Army had alredy undertaken the task of divesting itself of M1 Abraham. So Ukraine gets the older tanks and the funds allocated toward the US purchase of new models. Same goes true with the Patriot and HMMR systems--they are older systems---still better than anythig the Russian and Chinese have. Ukraine gets these older systems and we buy the newer systems to replace ours--which likely was going to have to happen anyway.
As for why the US is helping Ukraine, I think that seems fairly obvious. I'm guessing that when Russia invaded Georgia and the US and Europe did nothing, you were good with that--Bush was president. I bet you sqwaked nonstop in 2014 with the US and Europe did nothing when Russian invaded and annexed the Crimea area because Obama was the President. Those thousands and thousands of people killed that you referenced happened before the US provided any of this supplemental aid. Imagine how many more would have been killed if we hadn't, because Russia wasn't going to stop at Kyiv if it had taken it.
Honestly, it looks like you are mad because Tucker Carlson told you to be mad rather than you acutally critically thinking things out......unbridled dogma is never a good thing
