ukraine since 1914, republican senator tom tuberil said at a hearing of the armed services committee, head of the pentagon explain, why are such gigantic sums being allocated to one of the most corrupt countries on the planet? we print and burn 80 thousand dollars per second in ukraine, 4 6000 dollars per minute, we can’t do it anymore. we provide military assistance in the form of weapons and ammunition, and then we replenish our own arsenals, our industry earns money from this, including businesses in your state of alabama. just since the beginning of the conflict, in 2 years, american aid to ukraine has exceeded $113 billion, and europe has added almost 90 billion euros. all this is to ensure that ukraine under no circumstances agrees to peace negotiations. as a result , kiev is now. on the verge of collapse. zelensky is waiting for new handouts. few people want to fight with the russians, in donbass the ukrainian armed forces are simply despised, this one of the polish mercenaries told a journalist in warsaw. it is absurd that there are no artillery shells at all, and ukraine itse

three house republicans, three key house republicans — the chair of intelligence committee, armed services committee who actually asked the house to pass legislation which is needed to support ukraine. so i want to reiterate, once again, we still rely on bipartisan support. second, uh, it's not just about ukraine. this is about the leadership positions of the united states of america and this security aid package, uh, of $60 billion. uh, it works definitely in the interest of the national security interests of the united states of america. only $8 billion goes directly as a financial support to the ukrainian budget. so it is about where the united states of america stands. it is about whether the us is the leader and the flagship of the free world. and i still believe that the us will hold this position. the same happened before... right, you want to believe that but you don't know that and neither do i. day by day, the situation changes on capitol hill. but let us be straight with each other. if you do not get new, substantial us aid — you talk about the $60 billion package that biden put on the ta

since 1914, this was stated by republican senator tomi tuberville, at a hearing before the armed services committeetagon explain why such gigantic sums were being allocated alone. we are printing in ukraine burning 80 thousand dollars per second, 4.600 dollars per minute, we can no longer support such expenses, there are better ways to spend our dollars. the pentagon inspector general announced 50 criminal cases related to money sent to ukraine, one of the most corrupt countries in the world. can you comment? the beginning of the conflict, within 2 years, american aid to ukraine exceeded $113 billion, and europe added almost 90 billion euros. all this so that ukraine under no circumstances did not agree to peace negotiations. as a result , kiev is now on the verge of collapse. zelensky is waiting for new handouts. few people want to fight with the russians; in the donbass, the ukrainian armed forces are simply neglected. this was told to journalists in warsaw by one of the polish mercenaries. it's absurd that artillery. there are no shells at all, and ukraine itself has not bought a single ammuniti

details emerge like center tommy, to marvel, mentioned earlier this month of the senate armed services committee. hearing that, depending on the inspector general now has 50 open and criminal cases related to potential misuse of ukraine. funding from is my understanding the work that we've done, my staff. we have spent $300000000000.00 since 2014 in ukraine. right now we're, we're printing our borrowing $80000.00 per 2nd. 4.6000000 a minute. we can't sustain that much longer. we gotta find the best way to spend our money. the d o d inspector general, i said that there are safety criminal investigations going on right now for money sent to ukraine by one of the most corrupt countries in the world collect us specifically as naturally patriot missile systems. and they seem to be in the very top of his weapons wish list, whole as president andre, due to said recently that he just can't give colin's patriot missile systems to care because only needs them over there. and they're owned and operated in poland by the pentagon. so you kind of kick the can down the road to the us and said, you know, maybe

united states of america of international security, celeste wolander, at a hearing in the armed services committeeus house of representatives, according to her, agreeing on new us aid to ukraine is critically important, and here's why. let's listen to ms. celesta wallender in direct speech. i believe that there is a false opinion that putin needs territory, he does not need territory, he does not need bakhmut, avdiivka, or even odesa, he needs ukraine. and if at some point negotiations can take place. we must be prepared for what this probably does not mean, that putin will abandon his goal of conquering ukraine, and through ukraine and europe, so we need to support ukraine in negotiations if it decides to go to them, but at the same time not to deceive ourselves into thinking that this will return an era of peace and cooperation to europe , it was ms. wolander who said why... aid is so important for ukraine, but the lack of additional funding that cannot be voted on in the house of representatives can also be extremely dangerous for the united states of america itself. during the speech hearings

that's always top of mind for me, because i sit on the intelligence committee, and i'm on the armed services committeewn national security and the national security of our allies. >> and, senator, i know you have a been concerned about the security of ukraine as well and that national security supplemental. i want to talk to you more in depth about that and what's happening in your home state in a moment. i have to take a commercial break here. stay with us. we hope that all of you will stay with us as we talk as well about the arizona supreme court decision last week that shook the political world. stay with us. mber one broker hee for the number one hit maker. -thanks for swinging by, carl. -no problem. so what are all those for? uh, this lets me adjust the base, add more guitar, maybe some drums. -wow. so many choices. -yeah. like schwab. i can get full service wealth management, advice, invest on my own, and trade on thinkorswim. you know carl is the only front man you need.
