The Fourteen Facts about US Aid to Ukraine

We have resettled Ukes in our neighborhood. My paralegal friend looked up Ukraine Resettlement plan. Everything is free. Rent, utilities, food, etc.

What in the world has Ukraine ever done for us?
Zip, that’s what.

Russia, Iran, Hamas and North Korea are our enemies.

Ukraine had eliminated 50% of Russia’s combat capability in 18 months.

You are one of the most simpleminded people I’ve ever come across.

Yes, they are. What does that have to do with whether we (taxpayers) are getting the rigorous accountability with respect to money and weapons supplied to Ukraine? The author and you are just word-filling with distractions.

Russia is our enemy.

True dat!

You’re a very sick and stupid person bro. Your level of simplemindedness is beyond belief.

He’s got Putin living rent free in his head...ain’t much room for anything else in there.

The US will drain our treasury and give the Ukraine all our weapons to protect the fraud/money laundering/DNC 'banking'/Biden Crime family/Pelosi Crime Family/Schumer Crime family/Romney Crime family and oh, Biden's biolab in the Ukraine...

> Fact: For a relatively modest amount of money, US aid helps… <

Political considerations aside, that’s the problem right there. For a relatively modest amount of money, we do all sorts of things everywhere in the world.

Those “relatively modest amounts” add up. It’s a financial death by a thousand cuts.

--- "Ukraine had eliminated 50% of Russia's combat capability in 18 months."

A fascinating assertion. But an assertion.

In order to prove the assertion, one would have to be able 1) to verify Russia combat capability before the 18 month period you select, and then 2) to further verify combat capability today.

Your verifiable sources would be interesting to "verify." Thanks in advance.

50% of Russia’s combat capability eliminated in 18 months with less than 5% of our defense budget is money well spent.

Interesting that they don’t specify what Coffey did in the US Army. Only that he was an officer. According to LinkedIn he served 6 years and then went to work for the British. Something odd about that.

Anywho, he’s a warmongering clown from some ridiculous “think tank” staffed by “experts”. The same ones that have gotten us to this point in time.

1) HOLY S***! I think I may be onto something about #Ukraine. Zelensky said the Russians are firing at “military installations”. How broad is that term? I am seeing speculation that could include US installed biolabs. At first I was like no way. Then I started digging.

Whitewashing Ukraine’s Corruption
SNIP
"The notion that Ukraine was such an appealing democratic model in Eastern Europe that the country’s mere existence terrified Putin may be a comforting myth to U.S. politicians and pundits, but it is a myth. Ukraine is far from being a democratic‐capitalist model and an irresistible magnet for Russia’s groaning masses. The reality is murkier and troubling: Ukraine has long been one of the more corrupt countries in the international system. In its annual report published in January 2022, Transparency International ranked Ukraine 123rd of the 180 countries it examined, with a score of 32 on a one to 100 point scale. By comparison, notoriously corrupt Russia ranked just modestly lower, 139th, with a score of 29.
Ukraine’s track record of protecting democracy and civil liberties is not much better than its performance on corruption. In Freedom House’s 2022 report, Ukraine is listed in the “partly free” category, with a score of 61 out of a possible 100. Other countries in that category include such bastions of liberal democracy as Rodrigo Duterte’s Philippines (55), Serbia (62), Hungary (59), and Singapore (47). Interestingly, Hungary—which has been a target of vitriolic criticism among progressives in the West because of Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s conservative social policy—ranks eight points higher than Ukraine, which is the recipient of uncritical praise from the same Western ideological factions.
Even before the war erupted, there were ugly examples of authoritarianism in Ukraine’s political governance. Just months after the 2014 Maidan revolution, there were efforts to smother domestic critics, which accelerated as years passed. Ukrainian officials also harassed political dissidents, adopted censorship measures, and barred foreign journalists whom they regarded as critics of the Ukrainian government and its policies. Such offensive actions were criticized by Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, and other independent observers. The neo‐Nazi Azov Battalion was an integral part of President Petro Poroshenko’s military and security apparatus, and it has retained that role during Zelensky’s presidency.
Indeed, some repressive measures deepened under Zelensky even before the outbreak of war with Russia. In February 2021, the Ukrainian government closed several (mostly, but not entirely pro‐Russia) independent media outlets. They did so on the basis of utterly vague, open‐ended standards. Zelensky has now used the war as a justification for outlawing 11 opposition parties and nationalizing several media outlets. Those are hardly appropriate measures in a democracy, even in wartime."
