JD Vance: Five Years from Now We’re Going to Find ‘a Lot of People Have Gotten Rich’ off Ukraine War
Breitbart ^ | 09/20/2023 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 09/20/2023 8:17:15 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Tuesday, during an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) reacted to the Clinton Global Initiative’s reemergence on the global scene and its involvement in Ukraine.

Vance said he expected we would ultimately find that some would have benefited financially from the Ukrainian war effort.

“So Senator, when you see this new news about the Clinton Global Initiative Ukraine Action Network, and we’ve got Airbnb, you know, we’ve got famous Hollywood actors now involved, and the World Bank is kind of laundering American taxpayers through the Clintons into Ukraine, it could be a noble cause, yes, but it also seems a little suspicious, considering what the Clintons had been known for their entire career,” FNC host Jesse Watter said. “Do you agree?”

Why five years? You can’t tell who they are now?

“JD Vance: Five Years from Now We’re Going to Find ‘a Lot of People Have Gotten Rich’ off Ukraine War”

And like the COVID pandemic, congressional hearings will be conducted and nobody will go to jail.

We need to spend 400 billion to rebuild Ukraine first. Watch. That’s the number.

Why 5 years? Full time Congress with taxpayer provided staff.

Some Russian colonel got rich selling twenty-one T-72 engines on the black market...and there’s indications the engines ended up in Ukraine.

Every war results in a lot of people getting rich off of it.

Captain Obvious alert. Isn’t the sole purpose of war to divest the elite of their excess peons, plunder their wealth and further enslave?

We already know (or have every reason to believe) that many others have gotten maimed and dead, but not enough yet to satisfy those who are getting rich at their expense. Come on, man. Keep the gravy train going.

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) on “Jesse Watters Primetime” reacted to the Clinton Global Initiative’s reemergence on the global scene and its involvement in Ukraine.......

.....”the World Bank is kind of laundering American tax dollars through the Clintons into Ukraine, it could be a noble cause, but it also seems a little suspicious, considering what the Clintons had been known for their entire career”.......

Now and we’ve got Airbnb, we’ve even got Hollywood actors involved,

Vance said he expected we would ultimately find that some benefited financially from the American financed Ukrainian war effort.

Julianne Assange recently said taxpayer money from US and Europe is routed to Ukraine and back to US sympathetic legislators.

Assange has means to sniff out info like this. He did not mention defense contractors stuffing campaign coffers, but that’s a certainty.

“Every war results in a lot of people getting rich off of it.”

Yep. They are writing like this is something new.

What do you suppose was the last war where that wasn’t true? It must be in the pre-Industrial Revolution era. Maybe the Revolutionary War? Certainly lots of fortunes were made in the Civil War with the rest of industrialization of warfare. And VAST fortunes were made in WW I and WW II.

Wars exist to 1) let megalomaniacs play chess at a global scale and 2) to make people rich.

Knowing that some companies “profit” from materiel needed for war - which is always true with every war - pretends that fact means those “profits” are the reason for the war. It’s a populist but often ignorant assumption.

For instance I am sure the American military suppliers “profited” from Reagan’s military buildup, but I reject the idea (always sold by the left at times) that those “profits” were Reagan’s motives.

In the last few decades more and more self-professed “conservatives” have acquired, as their own, populist themes spewed by the Leftist since the cold war.

Shall I go ahead and preemptively call you a Putin bootlicker? Just to get that out of the way?

I’m honestly surprised that hasn’t already been done. And for the record, I don’t like any of the sides involved, Putin/Russians included. And there are a lot more than two sides involved.

But now it’s the Leftists pushing us into war. It started with Kosovo. “The First Progressives War”, as Tony Blair called it.
