Sounds like the Council on Foreign Relations has an agenda. They are intentionally understating our involvement. We have to borrow the money to send to Ukraine. It is closer to $200 billion.
I think I saw something posted to FR a few weeks ago that said $300 million. They hide the true expense.
For example, I think the military ‘gives’ them weapons but then the military is repaid to replace those weapons - the second number is not direct aid to the Ukraine so it’s not counted?
The Council for Foreign Relations is deep state all the way so they are understating costs and ‘justifying’ etc.
That's probably about right ... the big leZenski declared he had to have a weekly stipend of $5 billion US taxpayer money about a year ago, or else start sending our sons & daughters to defend Our Democracy™ for 0'Biδen.
