Wont win war but at least zelinsky will have his pockets full of cash.
Aren't you confusing Zelinsky with Putin?
@@imsorfa are you?
Putin has already been embarrassed by Zelinski. Now Ukraine will get Crimera back.
@@robertodavila3724 thanks for confirming just what I said...
Gotta go, it smells like stale russian salad dressing 😂
@@imsorfayou two people are 🤡
Will the laundering ever stop
No.
Not until WE make it! 🇺🇲
There's no evidence of laundering.
@@123ssbrolly why don't you say, "there's no laundering" instead of, "there's no evidence of laundering"? That sounds suspicious.
@@123ssbrolly laundering is the only thing that's logical, Russia could have already taken Ukraine
At this point, I think the US has sent enough money to Ukraine; they could've just bought Ukraine.
No Ukraine bought Biden.
Bravo thank you for the post they can buy Ukraine
Why don’t the cowardly us fight russia instead of money?
@@anonomous8719 why does the US need to fight Russia? Why not any of the EU nations? next
The United States already owns Ukraine. Why do you think the USA is so interested in Ukraine surviving? The money they are giving to Ukraine is not free, at the end of the war all of Ukraine's resources will be from the United States, and even so Ukraine will continue to owe money to the USA, it will take dozens of years until Ukraine finishes paying its debt .
WHY DO YOU NOT ASK THE REAL QUESTION ? WHY DO YOU NOT EVER REPORT THE TRUTH ?
Lady said this is huge win for president Biden, ask yourself how is this a win for him, insane
Most main stream media is funded by Democrats, that’s why !
The moment Trump announced in 2015, it became easier to spot a trash rag paper, this one qualifies, 100%

Why are we throwing money at Ukraine…we are literally supporting that whole govt
Because Ukraine is an ally. All allies support each other. Dozens of countries are helping, not only America.
If Ukraine falls, five more European allies face Russia. If you don't support Ukraine you're supporting Russia.
@joewoodchuck3824 so when are the allies sending support to the hungry Americans and when is the support coming to fix infrastructure
@@joewoodchuck3824If all Allies support each other, what have any of our allies done for us? Please answer that. Half of NATO still doesn't meet their 2% GDP spending goals and still haven't moved in the 2.5 years since the invasion.
@@joewoodchuck3824we have no formal anything with them. Stop lying
Yeah, and if we don't Russia will glady support that whole government.
It's enough to make middle class Americans continue to suffer.
Your kids are going to pay this bill.
Biden passed the Inflation Reduction Act to help Americans, and liberals want to raise minimum wage and give universal healthcare. Stop crying.
the plan.they want to do away with the middle class period.
they kid gonna suffer for this too lol goodlcuk murica🤡@@darrenjones2396
If the first $100B didn't, this won't.. please just keep setting our money on fire, it's truly amazing to watch
Money laundering.
Russia is failing.
Exactly. How long is this money gonna last before they need more? Russia isn't going to stop. Ever. They're gonna keep going and going until Ukraine is taken over. They'd have to literally get into Russia and take it over for them to stop and that's not gonna happen unless NATO and US physically get involved.
There's no end goal here. There's nothing. Ukriane is vastly outnumbered and outgunned on every level. Continuing to send money without any sort of strategic end game is just prolonging the inevitable.
The money isn't being burnt. It's going into the military manufacturing industry and into the paychecks of American workers who will spend it again in American communities. Were not just sending cash to Ukraine.
Because otherwise we will have to resist the aggression of Putin and other dictatorships in Europe ourselves.
How much more you gonna give them, Stop it all ready, Americans need that money, But we get nothing to help us our own people
The world is a stage. All involved are actors.
It’s true. It’s all a effing show to keep themselves employed at the cost of people’s well being.
Money laundering overpaid actors
@@jalleman61 Exactly.... We're playing for front row $eats and Back$tage Pa$$e$ and we're Stuck in the Nosebleed Section!!
More like they are clowns.
Thank you Shakespeare.
What a joke
I dont know. $60 billion dollars pumped into military manufacturing towns across America to supply Ukraine's defence against one of our biggest enemies without costing a single US soldier's life seems like a huge win win scenario. Helps our economy and makes us safer at the same time.
@@bellsTheorem1138taking money from the tax payer to prop up the economy is not a win win it’s call wealth transfer.
@@poppystars9005 I'm down with wealth transfer too which is why I'm for raising taxes on billionaires to pre-Reagan levels. Wealth stagnation caused by wealth gap is strangling our economy. It's the spending of money that drives an economy.
@@bellsTheorem1138 odd, I’m into equal opportunity and playing field to create my own wealth not taking it from people who have earned it and giving it to people who haven’t.
Describing Russia?
NO ITS NOT ENOUGH.....THEY'LL GET ANOTHER 15 BILLION IN 6 MONTHS.
Make it 30 billion in 3 months
Wheres this money coming from? How can we help them secure their boarders but not out own first
Hopefully more than 15 billion.
I hear propaganda. Wait until Ukraine loses. Will we send troops? Money aint gonna do it. Who has more troops to lose, that is what matters.
USA will never send troops! Maybe only at the end..
Thats what France is planning to do, Macron announced theres a possibility of them sending troops to prevent Ukraine defeat.
if you think Ukraine is getting weapons at this point for " democracy" which is code for we lying, and communism. its sad.
@briandrake6660 Exactly! Will their be a draft in America?
The only way Ukraine wins is with the help of foreign troops. Russia will win through attrition.
Lies and propaganda
How so?
Describing Russia?
@@Ifatov Ukraine is not running out of ammunition it's running out of men

Underrated comment
All I wanna say is, Ukraine is fighting Russia so we don't have to.
Nope but they sure do care about 🇺🇦 Nzis & illegal
Well I was thinking her face is lighter than her hands ✋️. My bad on point now
@@CarlosRamirez-wb7zu nazism is deeply rooted in Ukraine, and I bet you didn’t know that
If you look at a map they've already lost the war. 🤣
Putin has already lost. He was supposed to be in Kiev in a month. Now Sweden and Finland have joined NATO. Epic fail.
Russia only has 18% of Ukraine after 10 years of fighting, so I would definitely say Russia is losing.
@@CarlosRamirez-wb7zu no, according to YOUR perceived goals of Russia, not Putin's. You have no idea what you are talking about.
Please elaborate.
@@gont183 Russia is doing great. Their economy is solid, BRICS is expanding, they dont have the goals that you were told they have.
🤔It’ll never be enough 💰💰💰🤫🤐
Exactly!!
don't care corruption for corruption and stop with the bs
Help the American people, stop giving them tax payer money.
The answer is no. They will keep coming back for more. The corrupt on both sides aren't full yet they need to keep stuffing their pockets.
The aid to Ukraine is a waste of $; that war is a lost cost, not only to Ukraine, but to US's financtial security. Those clowns politicians in DC most be voted out...😢
Putin will not win. If you love him so much, move to Russia!
Russia is facing, a long term economic disaster. And drastic military damage.
@@SirPeanutIII Business Insider reported 7 days ago "Russia's Economic Growth to Surpass US, Advanced Economies, IMF says"
@@derekhill1593 Russian GDP is boosted by its mass increase in military production. That is nothing good for an economy long term. Oil exports almost halved. Weak Ruble. High inflation. Lack of investment. And over 40% of their government budget going into military.
Investment into ammunition, not infrastructure, is not a good growing economy.
When this war is over, Russia's (war time) economy is going to see a huge decline.
Of course it wont. But it will line the pockets of the wealthiest ppl however
You should do something about it and not just protest
You are thinking of corporate tax cuts. Democrat funding actually gets to the people who need it.
@@CarlosRamirez-wb7zu you must’ve received that Covid crackpipe!
@@CarlosRamirez-wb7zu You can argue that democrat funding gets to people who need it (and it does), however, once you start giving tons of money to people who aren't responsible with spending, all that money you just gave from your taxes just ends up back in the pockets of the rich. There's a reason the middle class is the priority and should be the priority: consistency and responsibility. We've been putting too much priority on "poor people who need it," who are then irresponsible and cause prices to go up with all their added spending. Because of allocating tax-payer dollars to the poor, the middle class is shrinking toward the lower end.
@@mirlov that's not the reason. The reason that the middle class is shrinking is because 99% of America's wealth does nothing but buy yachts and space rockets.
Of course not. More , More , more. The teachers in Ukraine need more retirement money.
They shouldn't have gotten another nickle! Our overlords in DC have probably already diverted the money into their accounts offshore!!!!!!! And don't forget 10% for "The Big Guy"
Maybe you could have asked the speaker Democrat Mike Johnson what long form for the taxes & taxpayer number form ? We the people can file for dependents on Ukraine, Israel, and the Philippines & the O"Biden million invaders.
Where is all this money going?
its going back to the USA makeing jobs to build military equipment for the war
to the pockets of the Ukrainian oligarchs
Going back to politicians & contractors pockets.
Into the bank accounts of Ukrainian soldiers. Why not American soldiers.
@shawnsmith524 why do people keep saying this?? Most is going to payroll in Ukraine and money for the government. It's right in the bill.
IT WILL HELP LINE BIDENS POCKET!
10 per cent tile Joe. Or juiced-up joe, if it's sotu time!
They are spending our money until it is gone with no accountability.
Fire up the money printers! But where are we going to get all the ink to this cash? Imagine what$60 billion dollars could do here in America? Guess we will never know, but we taxpayers will have to pay it back.
We take out big loans from china its really china that is supplying money to fight russia its a win win for USA
No domestic programs have been affected by helping Ukraine. Try again.
But best way to end the war is to stop paying for it! Why would the leadership in Ukraine want it to stop when America keeps sending them cash!
So you support Russia then.
The war profiteers in the MIC are the ones benefiting from this. No risk, all reward.
@@smacdonald5142 I think pajama man Zelenski is profiting too!
It won't reach Ukraine ....maybe Zelensky can buy ammo with his 600 million dollars...???
Comments like these show how desperate Putin is to stop America from helping Ukraine.
Where's my Florida mansion? I'd like a place in London too. Where's my cocaine buffet? Zelensky isn't the only one with needs.
@@CarlosRamirez-wb7zu Biden held Putin's hand through his minor incursion , and refused to give Ukraine what they need to win....he is a Russian asset I believe.............they spent an entire year building up to the invasion , I would have had every infantry battalion and F-16 at the border to greet them...
we need to take care of issues on the homefront first. dems just like to spend tax payers money. why do you think the economy is where it is and not getting any better. WE have to pay for all this.
Not really. Monetary system isn’t hedged to anything anymore. Money really is made out of a printer.
ALL spending is taxpayer money! If you want small government move to Afghanistan. Democrats passed the COVID Relief Act, the infrastructure bill, the Inflation Reduction Act, and tried to pass a border bill. Also, it's cheaper to fund Ukraine now than to have to go to war directly when Putin invades more of Europe.
@@yanboyao7825 yes, but there WILL be consequences to that..
....there goes more of our needed tax dollars......
Yeah, too bad you won’t do anything about it but complain on the Internet
@@imaninternettroll1660 🤓🤓🤓
@@imaninternettroll1660How about we broker a ceasefire and let Ukraine keep the land they currently still have… the longer this goes the more Ukraine will lose.
How is money gonna help? Riddle me that.
61 Billion a foreign country that isn't even our neighbouring country is asking for this much!🤔 Think of how much it would help the struggling American people to give this much back to US Citizens in need (small business owners, seniors, displaced veterans, homeless, student loan borrowers, first time home buyers ect.) Instead of giving to another country we have nothing to do with, give it back to the American people instead.....🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Zelensky will take his cut and then the rest will make its way back to D.C. to those that supported it. Like George Carlon said, "It's a big club and you're not in it."
A TOTAL waste of US taxpayer money!!!
2025, they will ask for 500,000 U.S. soldiers as an Aid

Russia will not negotiate.
Biden did not want to. He refused peace talks, even though it’s not his country or continent.
@@joewoodchuck3824 Zelensky was the one who wouldn't negotiate.
@@mikusoxlongius What does Zelensky need to negotiate for? He's just trying to keep his country intact. Russia just wants to destroy it.
The Brandon Administration told me this war was only going to last a couple months.
We don’t need the media or this guy to defend America
You mean, UNITED STATES? not America
Better to help Zelinski fight Russia than to go to war directly when Putin invades another country. Anything else is appeasement.
Where will they get the next 60B from ?
The real question is: What is victory? How does Ukraine define victory? That's the question to ask. 🤔🤷
No they can't win this is $$$ for defense contractors
If 90billion was enough..How will 60 b be enough? Common sense people
Was the last 100billion enough? No and only 27 billion of that 60 is going to Ukraine weapons
They should remove him so there people stop dying!
Tell me you stole from me without doing it
No wonder I haven't got my taxes yet 😡
That's the problem other countries an these 👄 pieces are unbelievable no word about the U.S.
Let’s vote for crooked Biden again!!!😅
NO MORE MONEY TO UKRAINE. HELPAMERICANS FIRST! HELP OUR VETS AND OUR HOMELESS❤
who deems what's enough? This is ridiculous already.
You should be ashamed for not reporting the truth and even asking, if it's enough for Ukraine. When is it going to be enough for our country? And then americans to get the help that we need??
Answer? No. Next question... This $60b will be used up, and they will be back for more of your $$$ before the year is out.
60b already spent Zelensky demanded more or Ukraine falls
@@user-xb1uh1xn3i Ukraine can NOT defeat Russia whatever the money he gets for ammunition. Russia simply have more troops to feed into the meat grinder. Just like in WW2 v Germany. More tanks, shells, people etc. This war will go on endlessly in stalemate until a peace deal is agreed - which it will be eventually when sanity prevails in both Putin and Zelensky.i
these folks couldnt fight their way out of a cardboard box.
Simple answer No - But we all know that is not what's going on here
California, Texas, and New York, among other states, have been given billions in federal aid this last year. If people are suffering in these states, maybe you need to ask your governors where the federal aid went.
I will never vote for any politician that funds dearh and misery.
Stop giving our money away
Seriously...that money isn't going to the "war"...we are paying for their social security...for their small businesses...for their government workers...it's redistribution of wealth...namely our wealth!
winning isn't the goal. fighting another endless war is more profitable for the military/industrial complex
Of course not,zelinsky needs another mansion and two more yachts.

Thanks for taking us down with you, Ukraine. You have no chance.
They don't need our money they just. Want our money they can't win
answer? of course NOT.
How anyone in America could want us involved in Ukraine or Israel after Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Lybia and Yemen and Vietnam baffles my mind.
Ukraine will lose...period...
This is about money for politicians
No… the answer is no. There is no benefit to anyone in the US taxpayer funding this. Not that the government cares. They’ll pass whatever they want regardless of what the citizens say.
There IS benefit to the U.S. because we depend on allies, including Ukraine, for economic stability as well as global security. Opposition to Ukraine backing = support for Russia.
That's $200 for every US citizen!
I can't wait til he begs again in 6 months. But But But..............
It won’t take that long, he will be asking by June.
No. They are running out of humans
may be they could build robots too fight the war for them with the new technology thats around today.
Negotiate…give them the Eastern part of Ukraine which is sympathetic to Russia
I’m pretty sure that big part of aid goes to Ukraine politics (since Ukraine is poorest Europe country and have even worst situation with corruption then Russia). When Ukraine politics get couple billion dollars in their hands they just leave to US
We need to help the usa
His mother in law needs new lawn and furniture for her new mansion
How do Americans even tolerate this...😅😅
Selensky give it up! America has nothing we are in debt!
Nothing will help UKRAINE. IT Is done, now is the question where to launder the money next , and be sure to turn in your tax returns on time. FJB
This aid makes US root for putin!!!
If I revive a draft notice, I’m leaving the country
61 billion for Zelensky mansions 😂😂😂😂😂 🤑💰💸
They will be back in 3 weeks needing another 60 billion.
Is this a joke? you better get serious, the war is lost.
U gotta have fighters to fight wars not just money. They want money to give salary to their government officials
Don't ask for any more money ... use it wisely!! This conflict will end about 6 months.
You put 60 Billion in the money laundering machine, and out comes Congressional Millionaires🤔, great reporting 😮 shouldn’t this be answered BEFORE the 60 Billion is spent 🤔
You media people are ridiculous....beyond absurd....ha ha ha.
No on war win, but defense contractors will have a very merry Christmas..
This is not the end of aid to Ukraine. As President Biden has said "the United States stand with Ukraine for as long as they need our support in this war with Russia" i support my President. President Biden is on the right side of history and democracy. Slava Ukraine
No won't change anything but the bank accounts of politicians.
Will US aid to Ukraine help defend our own southern border? Biden gets hard thinking about Ukraine's border...and licking his own ice cream cone.
The question should be asked to Joe Biden..... WHY???
the money goes for
beer and cigarettes
What a stupid headline.
Glory to Ukraine!
