My recent post about the latest Ukraine grift, the House passing … over the “no” votes of ONLY 57 Republicans … $40 billion MORE to go into that Black Hole known as aid-to-Ukraine, has generated some interest.
Since I drafted that post, Senator Rand Paul procedurally blocked the quickie vote sought by Schumer and McConnell:
My oath of office is to the U.S. Constitution, not to any foreign nation. Congress is trying yet again to ram through a spending bill – one that I doubt anyone has actually read – and there’s no oversight included into how the money is being spent.

The vote, I believe, is scheduled for next week.
If … IF … Chuck Morse and Kevin Smith were America-First Republicans, they would be opposing this bill and hammering Hassan for supporting it.
Ukraine does not need another penny in military aid. Ukraine already … thanks to the billions worth of state-of-the-art weaponry already provided by the United States and NATO …undeniably has achieved military superiority over Russia … a country whose military, as I have previously noted, is obsolescent and hollow.
This latest bill is gratuitous overkill:

And it is obscene, given that our country is experiencing a baby formula shortage.
But crickets … CRICKETS … from Chuck and Kevin.
Evidently, they agree with Senator Hassan and the UNI-PARTY that we need regime change in Russia … no matter what the cost in Ukrainian and Russian lives, and no matter the economic cost to the American people … so the globalists can swoop in and exploit its and Ukraine’s natural resources.
