Democrats Are Rushing Through A Massive Ukraine Defense Bill

[Care4all]

Why not make Joe Biden return the aid money he illegally and unilaterally withheld from Ukraine for
specious and dubious reasons...and then bragged about it?

Ukraine got their money. The corrupt prosecutor Shokin who collected diamonds from corrupt businesses and Ukrainian oligarchs, with his crony installed prosecutors as payoffs to let the crooks STEAL our and ally aid money, got fired....finally, as he should have..Great job Joe!

You mean the prosecutor who was investigating Burisma, Hunter and Joe Biden and the Bribes Burisma, (Russian Proxy) were paying Hunter and Joe? The guy Joe publicly admitted to using extortion to get him fired? That guy?

 

[Care4all]

There's no money in peace. This is why they had to destroy Trump, he wasn't playing the war game.

He was playing Putin's war game, not ours....

What's better?

He wasn't investigating Burisma, nor the corrupt others.... and that was the problem with Shokin.

You believe Russian propaganda.

 

[Eric Arthur Blair]

Ukraine got their money.

Prove it!
You know Quid Pro Joe broke the law when he unilaterally voided the act of Congress that sent aid to
Ukraine to begin with.
It's not up to VP Joe Biden to formulate foreign policy all on his own. Did you not realize this?

You obviously don't pay attention to such "minor details".

The corrupt prosecutor Shokin who collected diamonds from corrupt businesses and Ukrainian oligarchs, with his crony installed prosecutors, got fired....finally, as he should have..Great job Joe!

If the US stopped sending aid to nations with corrupt officials we would probably never send any aid
anywhere. And that's not even the point. Your story is old and full of holes.
That's why it doesn't hold water.
Joe Biden's specious authority as Obama VP does NOT supersede that of the US Congress!

Where were you when civics were taught in school? Were you in school at all?

"Trump and his allies, including his personal lawyer, Rudolph Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, accuse Biden of using his position as vice president and point man on relations with Kyiv in 2016 to help Burisma -- a Ukrainian energy company that was paying Biden's son Hunter, who was on its board of directors -- avoid damage from a criminal investigation."

The point is VP Joe Biden doesn't have the legal authority, as already pointed out, to substitute his
dubious authority for that of Congress. Get a new fairy tale.
Your bullshit is weak but still stinks.

 

[The Original Tree]

He wasn't investigating Burisma, nor the corrupt others.... and that was the problem with Shokin.

You believe Russian propaganda.

You are Russian Propaganda, or ChiCom. We are still trying to figure out who you work for. I placed a bet on Satan.

This kind of nonsense makes their crap seem reasonable by comparison

Democrats Are Rushing Through a Massive Ukraine Defense Bill

Democrats in the House are planning to expedite a massive bill that would dramatically increase U.S. security assistance to Ukraine.

DEMOCRATS IN THE House of Representatives are planning to expedite a massive bill that would dramatically increase U.S. security assistance to Ukraine and lay the groundwork for substantial new sanctions on Russia — hastening a war-friendly posture without opportunity for dissent as concerns over a military invasion abound.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., told members on a caucus call Tuesday that she’s looking to skip marking up the bill and move it straight to the House floor, setting up the possibility of a vote as soon as early next week, two congressional sources told The Intercept. The sources spoke on the condition of anonymity because they’re not authorized to talk to the press. Pelosi’s office did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
~Snip~
Republicans have offered their own measures. Earlier this month in the House, Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, the lead Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, introduced the Guaranteeing Ukrainian Autonomy by Reinforcing its Defense Act, a companion bill to a measure sponsored by Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chair Jim Risch, R-Idaho. The bill would give Ukraine $450 million from the State Department’s FMF account and impose sanctions related to the Nord Stream 2 project immediately, without waiting for an escalation as in the Democrats’ bill.
McCaul’s office did not reply to a request for comment on whether he would support Meeks’s bill. The White House endorsed the legislation that Menendez released weeks ago.

Commentary:
Those who think Congress won’t fund a Ukrainian insurgency are whistling in the dark.
Meanwhile, our 46th president and his Democrat ideologues ignore the crisis at our own border.
Obviously, Democrats believe that the borders of the Ukraine are more sovereign than the borders of America.
More than 140,000 illegal aliens crossed into America for the month of January, that's more than the number of Russians amassing at the Ukraine border and these illegals didn't need tanks, or massive weapons of war to do it Biden and his crew have given them the green light.

The Biden crime family is going to protect their cash cow at all costs.

Can't say I give a shit about the Ukraine. They should have a massive bill to stop illegals, who cost us billions each year, from getting into the US. That's more important to the American tax payer than the Ukraine. Good Lord. What a pack of idiots.

from your link, the GOP wants to accelerate sanctions even faster.

Are you actually trying to make the case that Putin feared Trump? Ridiculous.

Ridiculous? It’s plainly obvious. Are you actually trying to say Putin only takes over neighboring countries during democrat regimes because he’s afraid of them? You’re fucking retarded. He moved on Crimea during the Chicago morons regime and paid the massive price of… oh yeah, fucking nothing. And now he expects the dementia house plant will do the same.

 

[Doc7505]

Wonder what Germany’s plans are since they depend on Russian oil, especially after getting rid of 4 nuclear plants. Countries shutting down fuel sources need to consider that plan more thoroughly to avoid total dependence. I am not well read regarding German and Russian current relations, but it seems risky to rely on fuel from a foreign country that is not aligned politically in its posturing.

They've already said they'll sit this one out.

 

[Doc7505]

He was playing Putin's war game, not ours....

What's better?

FLASHBACK, 2018: Joe Biden Brags At CFR Meeting About Withholding Aid To Ukraine To Force Firing Of Prosecutor

In this clip from a January 2018 appearance at the Council on Foreign Relations, former Vice President Joe Biden seems to brag about threatening to withhold military aid to Ukraine as a pressure tactic to force the firing of a prosecutor he did not like. In September 2019, House Democrats...

They've already said they'll sit this one out.

It’ll be interesting to watch the political song and dance with regards to sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which would impact many European countries (investors) in addition to GE.

“The Democrats’ effort to accelerate the bill comes days after a group of senators met with Ukrainian leaders in the country’s capital, Kyiv, to extend U.S. support for the country’s sovereignty. Despite the show of Democratic and Republican unity during the trip, no Republicans have co-sponsored Meeks’s or Menendez’s bills. Senate Democrats also have not publicly indicated the timeline on which they would like to vote on their legislation.” Current Dem
Bill figure set at 500 million from SD.

“Republicans have offered their own measures. Earlier this month in the House, Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, the lead Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, introduced the Guaranteeing Ukrainian Autonomy by Reinforcing its Defense Act, a companion bill to a measure sponsored by Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chair Jim Risch, R-Idaho.

The further away the money, the easier it is to pilfer.
That goes for both Ds and Rs.

They’re already gearing up and squabbling over the difference of $50 million and sense of urgency. In US government expenditure terms, $50 million is not considered huge, even though it should be considered a huge
amount.

 

[eagle7-31]

They are anti-war they want to kill foreigners that come into the US now instead of going overseas to do it.

LOL. Biden etc more interested in securing the Ukraine/Russia border than the US border.
