$2.5bn means that around $250 million of it might-maybe make its way to Ukraine. The rest will stay with the New York bankers as usual.

"Announcing an aid package" and 'delivering an aid package' are two entirely different things.  Slow Corrupt Joe seems to be big on the former, but quite lacking on the latter.

He said the aid consisted of $1.25 billion in U.S. military equipment and $1.22 billion from the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), which is a fund for additional training, equipment or advisory efforts for Ukraine’s military.

And there's the money quote.  "Advisory efforts".  Kind of like the 'advisory efforts' that his son Hunter engaged in.

Biden said the $1.22 billion is the last of the USAI funds appropriated by Congress for 2024.

In other words, this money was appropriated by Congress at the beginning of the year, and here is Joe Biden 'announcing' it again.  btw, USAI funding goes to both the Defense Department and the State Department.  It doesn't go to Ukraine.  https://samm.dsca.mil/program/USAI

 I am also ecstatic over the $3.4 billion disbursement in budgetary aid announced by Screemin. I mean Yellen.

And then there's the $100 billion recently passed by the Republican House that will go to FEMA to cover all the money given to illegals, plus another $10 billion in additional food stamp money for illegals.  And not a dime of it will be spent in Western North Carolina (except if you happen to be an illegal living there).

Which one?  The $1.2 billion for the State Department, or the $110 billion for illegals (that he already signed off on)?

JUST IN: Biden announced $2.5 billion in security assistance for Ukraine.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen announced $3.4 billion in budget aid to Ukraine.

Nearly $6 billion authorized for Ukraine today.

Meanwhile North Carolina looks like this:

Yep.  And this after adding another $100 billion to FEMA's budget.  Money should be pouring into Western North Carolina right now.  Where is all that money?
