REPORT: Top Ukraine Advisor Claims ‘People Are Stealing Like There’s No Tomorrow’ Amid War With Russia

A Ukrainian aide to President Volodymyr Zelensky told Time Magazine on Monday that corruption remains a rampant problem in the country.

“People are stealing like there’s no tomorrow,” a top aide to Zelensky told Time Magazine about bribery and the “pocketing” of “state funds.” The statement was apparently made after the aide asked the reporter “to turn off my audio recorder so he could speak more freely,” Time reported.

“I’ve sat in a lot of briefings where I was promised Ukraine doesn’t have a corruption problem. The Biden admin has lied to us. Not one more penny to Ukraine,” Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance said on Twitter in response to the article.

??The cash cow should have ended long ago.  How many weapons have been stolen and sold for cash??
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yep.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

And sold to whom?!   It's enough of anything to Ukraine.

People who are given cash instead of weapons don't sell weapons for cash.
