To buy nice stuff from China per-chance?

Same as the rest. LoL

No
Unlike you, we removed the english leash.

And yes if the euros don't want financial support we can use it elsewhere.

News sources are reporting Biden is "considering" sending a load of Switchblade drone/missiles to Ukraine-

www.nbcnews.com...

They are small,light loitering and recon guided missiles which are highly portable and launch from a mortar like tube.
According to this video,they are not even getting delivered to the US SOF until next year-so I guess this could be a form of live testing?



No doubt Putin will see this as more escalation by the US

Just not the debt.

I think you might find China still produces and supplies all the cheap nice things we have or at least the majority of such, and thats not lightly to change anytime this century.

It appears the Ukraine is going to start their own 24 hour reactionary nation group!
Good for the Ukraine!!!

If you don't want the 13 billion just tell us.
We could actually use it for OUR CITIZENS.

The monetary cost via Russian destruction of infrastructure and humanitarian cost is north of 100 billion. The US is a small part of the aid that's going to be given to Ukraine, all of the EU will be helping to defray those devestating losses.

Or are you going to suggest that you're all the sudden so humanitarian that you're worried about ALL lives and the hungry here in the US?

Nah, interference only applies to airplanes and above- someone, somewhere decided recently- and conveniently.

all of a suddden from your perspective perhaps

I have long advocated America first.
It was working.

a reply to: shooterbrody

I suppose then, that you see little value in international relations and how that actually fosters an America first security.

Supporting Ukraine ultimately does that. I do imagine though, long-term planning is a lot to ask.

No
Getting out of that shady money laundering craphole is in the best interest of national security.
Actually NOT doing all the shady crap in that nation would have been best for national security.

a reply to: shooterbrody

What "shady crap" would that be? I'd love to see some examples of "shady crap" that you have proof of going on in Ukraine.

ETA: by saying this, Im entirely uninterested in seeing the following:

Tucker Carlson
Gateway Pundit
Hannity
Alex Jones
Lou Dobbs


I was talking about actual proof.

What?
A sitting us president was impeached over this crap.
Feign ignorance all you like, doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Yeah, you sure could buy a heck of a lot of crack and fentanyl with that....I mean you'd hardly spend it on wasteful things like social programmes would you?

I'm not feigning ignorance, i am utterly ignorant to the "shady crap"s that are afoot in Ukraine. So show me proof that you have of it.

They are shooting poor bastards standing in line waiting for bread now!

Just look up Ihor Kolomoyskyi.

Wikipedia has more than enough dirt on him but other articles tie him to Hunter Biden, suggesting he may be the puppetmaster of Zelensky. He launders money in the US through properties he purchased in the rust belt. The FBI got involved but I am not sure where that went.

If there was ever a movie villain come to life it is him and he has a lot of connections to US politicians.

Look through it all and familiarize yourself with him. I will be back later tonight and we can talk about it.

Where are the Russians in that video?

a reply to: andy06shake

Not saying it is right, but I have seen quite a few other videos were they are using SUV's and station Wagons to transport Javelins. Looked like there is something heavy in the back.

Marina Ovsyannikova: Russian journalist fined after TV protest

Breathtakingly brave individual! She deserves the Nobel peace prize, but i fear it may have to be posthumous, or least delivered to her in prison.

But here's hoping that she gets a better deal than Julian Assange got from the West when he dared to air the truth.

Ya...yet she's still facing that 15 year Russian prison sentence.
