Ukraine isn't getting money. They're getting ammunition, artillery and armored vehicles.

The money spent on making those is already spent. It has very little relationship to the brinksmanship that surrounds the debt ceiling, except that the very strategic level the US' military spending may be losing benefit/cost.

Especially after Trump's rerouting of funding from cyberwarfare, although possibly he foresees personal benefit to vulnerability to Russia's cyberwarfare since it appears to have paid off in 2016.

Yeah and most of that stuff. Is either experimental that they want to have tested, stuff they want to get rid of to make space for better stuff in the storages or shit that's about to or already has expired.

It's not like they're handing out cash to buy food for starving kids with XD

Glad we're finding some use for our enormous stockpile of rapidly aging excess vehicles.

In raw economics, the war is working for the US.

There's a humanitarian cost. Moving against Russia appears to be purely economic, and without China and India, nor half of the Arab block onside, that's not working.

We need as MANY Ukrainian whores deployed to the southern border of the US to drain all those suckers of their money, and wear them out to much to flee from border patrol. :D And somehow, not entirely sure of the details. PROFIT!

Biden is the worst puppet I think I've ever seen pretend to be in charge of a country. The Ukraine guy is looking at him like "dafuq is this guy even here and will he live until this meeting is over?". I mean what's next put a gorilla they taught sign language in charge??????
