Where is the $56 billion 'to Ukraine' actually going?
The making of a money laundering operation.
The United States has now delegated some $56 billion in new money to debase the currency “for Ukraine,” but hardly any of it is actually going to the Ukrainian people.
Due to President Trump, the D.C. war machine spent 2016 to 2020 starving for a monetary replenishment. And now that they have their man in the White House, along with easy consensus in the legislature, it’s time to cash in.
Wherever your opinion resides on this proxy war/inter-slavic spat 5,000 miles away on the Russia-Ukraine border region, reality cannot be denied.
The $56 billion and counting in “aid for Ukraine” that’s passing through the American legislature primarily serves the purpose of greasing the skids of the D.C. Beltway ruling class. And you’re paying for it.
If you think the people of Ukraine are going to see one dime of this money, think again. Not even the “humanitarian aid” portions of the assistance will reach the Ukrainian people, as it will be absorbed by a variety of DC lawyers, lobbyists, NGOs, and other well connected middle men. See: Afghanistan.
If they gave the bill a more accurate title, it would be called the “Money For Raytheon And Friends” bill, as the majority of the funds from the latest $40 billion behemoth will be used to supply weapons purchase orders, and resupply weapons that were already sent to Ukraine, which arrived with a seeming back room deal to add to the deep pockets of the weapons manufacturers back home.

Those who have become consumed by corporate press and government war propaganda are being used as useful marks for this agenda.
Since the beginning of this conflict, our corporate press and government propagandists (yes, one in the same) have been labeling the war with a nonsensical good vs evil narrative, which has helped to demand consensus in D.C. Notably, not a single Democrat voted against the bill. Republicans largely support it, and the Uniparty is outraged that Rand Paul decided to hold up its “emergency” passage.
And if you had any doubt about who is running the show in Ukraine, here's “Zelensky's” top adviser and the Ukrainian Foreign Minister promoting a CNN clip and condemning Rand Paul via faux moral outrage.
This is only the beginning of the money printing “for Ukraine.” Uniparty legislators agree that they will need to print much more money “for Ukraine” in the coming months, if not sooner.
Sadly, the people of Ukraine will probably not see one penny of the $56+ billion (and counting) delegated "for Ukraine,” and it’s all by design. This latest replenishment bill much more resembles money laundering via the narrative of America’s undeclared war against Russia. Money is being printed and distributed to a small group of wealthy regime insiders on the backs of the American taxpayer.

10% for the big guy. Nancy and Jill are just making sure their sons’ business dealings are well covered.
Thanks Jordan, great as always. Rand Paul is our only hope at this point. People need to understand that 99% of people in Congress belong to a Uniparty that loves throwing buckets of money out the door to long-time donors. We need to limit everyone to a single term - guys like McConnell should not exist.
