Report: Biden to Ask for Another Ukraine Aid Package ‘North of $10 Billion’

Sean Moran 8 Aug 2023

President Joe Biden will soon ask Congress for a Ukraine aid package that could exceed $10 billion, a report released Tuesday found.

Punchbowl News reported the Ukraine aid battle will resume when Congress returns from recess. The incoming request, which could be “north of $10 billion,” follows as Ukraine continues its slow-moving counteroffensive against Russia, and America and other NATO countries have pledged support for Ukraine.

The Army’s acquisition chief told reporters on Monday that the Department of Defense was working on a funding package for lawmakers to consider. The package would be used to replenish American weapon stockpiles which have been depleted after providing munitions to Ukraine’s protracted conflict with Russia.

The United States has provided more than $110 billion in aid to Ukraine even as voters go sour on the prospect of even more taxpayer dollars being spent to aid the Kyiv regime.

   Where is bidet getting this money?  The House Freedom Caucus's original idea of the Debt Resolution wanted to cut $4.6T  McCarthy settled for a $46B cut, mostly a clawback of Covid funds that haven't been spent.
   Obviously, bidet is creating money by just printing it.
   McCarthy is a Trump endorsed loser, like Ronna.

Does Ukraine Have Kompromat on Joe Biden?

Throughout the Trump presidency, the mainstream media constantly suggested that Russia had so-called "kompromat" on the president—embarrassing materials used as a weapon of influence through blackmail.

We all remember the daily deluge: "Does Russia have Kompromat on Trump?" CNN asked. "A Russian Word Americans Need To Know: 'Kompromat,'" Greg Myre wrote at NPR, concluding that "Russia may have compromising material on President-elect Donald Trump." The Guardian agreed, writing there was "apparent confirmation that the Kremlin possesses kompromat, or potentially compromising material, on Trump... that happened during Trump's trips to Moscow."

Jonathan Chait wrote in New York Magazine that Russia had "secret leverage over Trump," and "a great deal of incriminating information was confirmed," a claim reiterated by the BBC in an article called "Russia and the art of 'kompromat'." The Washington Post was obsessed with the conspiracy theory, publishing numerous articles about it, as did the Daily Beast with a steady stream of articles. Even the New York Times promoted the conspiracy theory that Russia had kompromat on the President, based on a brief meeting attended by one of Trump's sons in Trump Tower. Entire books were written on all the kompromat that the Kremlin supposedly had on President Trump, which were eagerly cited across mainstream media.  ...

All the kompromat talk swiftly ended the moment Joe Biden became president because surely no foreign government could have any dirt on him. This left no one to ask the obvious question: Could Ukrainian officials have kompromat on Joe, given all the allegations of his corruption in Ukraine?  ...

Despite the evidence of Biden's corruption in Ukraine, the Zelensky government has not outed Joe for his sordid history in his country. But why would Zelensky need to expose Biden? At tremendous American cost, Biden is leading the largest war since World War II to help Ukraine.

Yet as American public support for it dries up, one cannot help but wonder how much freedom President Biden has to step back from this immense war effort, even if he wanted.   ...

.  .  .  The package would be used to replenish American weapon stockpiles which have been depleted after providing munitions to Ukraine’s protracted conflict with Russia.

In other words, this is an aid package for the Defense Department, not an aid package for Ukraine.

Also, depleted munitions stockpiles have already been paid for.  Past 'drawdowns' have already been paid for.  Maybe someone should investigate why the Defense Department didn't purchase more artillery shells with the money they received in advance for the drawdowns.

Would we need to replenish our weapons stockpiles if not for aid to Ukraine?

Uh, no.  The United States has provided more than $110 billion in the name of Ukraine.  But $110 billion to Ukraine?  Not even close.  Even the $10 billion cited above isn't actually going to Ukraine.  It is going to the DoD to cover the costs (again) of things they have already been compensated for.  Not a dime of it will actually go to Ukraine.
