After U.S. Soldiers Were Told to Go On Food Stamps, Congress Finds Another $12 Billion for Ukraine
By Rusty Weiss

Congressional lawmakers agreed to a deal that would provide another $12 billion in aid to Ukraine, which would bring the total military and economic resources provided to over $66 billion.
The news follows the Senate passing a $40 billion aid package in May, along with a $14 billion package in March.
President Biden earlier this month asked Congress for an additional $11.7 billion in aid for Ukraine, with Congress, in turn, seems to be jumping at his behest.
As a reminder, also earlier this month the Army told active-duty American soldiers to go on food stamps if they were unable to afford food thanks to inflation.
Food stamps for American soldiers, endless billions for Ukraine. This is your country now.
Reuters reports that the funding agreement for Ukraine would address a variety of financial needs for Ukraine, including the hope that it would “reduce future energy costs.”
Meanwhile, the White House which had been touting lower gas prices despite them being well over the national average when Biden took office, has suddenly gone quiet. Why? Because they’re going back up again.
Biden and Congress won’t do anything to address American energy woes, but as long as Ukraine keeps showing a little leg, the political strip club patrons on the left and right will continue to shell out dollar bills.

A “bipartisan agreement” has been reached in Congress to send yet another $12 billion to Ukraine. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - we need a full accounting of every dollar that has been sent there. We have no clue what our taxpayer money is actually being spent on.

Republican congressman Dan Crenshaw has been a consistent target of critics who don’t agree with his capitulation to sending billions of dollars to Ukraine while the American people suffer.
Protesters confronted him back in June over his stance.
“Gas is $5 here and you’re giving Ukraine all this money?” one man asked.
