Imagine all the infrastructure we could build and repair here in the United States with those 33, 000, 000, 000.

I thought Russia was losing and running out of fuel and tanks.

Homelessness has been on a rise and we sending money to help Ukraine

[gsalad]

We can’t house or feed our citizens but we can just keep printing money and shipping it overseas

[simeonrodgers]

Meanwhile we have inflation, drug crisis, food shortage

[abel]

Shouldn’t Biden ask us? I mean we are the ones paying for this “aid”

[Johngottisentme]

I’m tired of my money going to Ukraine.
We have our own issues we need to fix

[djcroc]

I find it hilarious that taxpayers have absolutely no say in where their money gets spent.

How about a war on hunger, poverty, homelessness, oppression? Any loose change for these poor men women and children who cannot leave to other countries at will. This world is all about the evils of greed

[milosusa]

$33 billions will for sure do good to people who really deserve it..American veterans .

[Derail]

That's it, I'm no longer paying taxes

[chriso]

No let's not give them 33 billion wtf is wrong with Biden!

[godblessacountrygirl]

Too bad Joe didn't have the same drive for our country..boarder wouldn't be wide open

I feel for the people in Ukraine I really really do. It hurts my heart to see the innocent people going through this, but we have problems here in our own country that the money could go towards. Sorry.

[Stabby__]

No thanks they aren't a nato country, they need to negotiate with Russia and end the conflict

[Star_Gazer_]

Why are we supplying Ukraine… They aren’t even part of NATO… While our gas prices are through the roof, support us citizens and economic growth before you support other countries who won’t pay us back…

[jessie]

33 Billion he got 800 Million last week that's outrageous!

[Darnellw]

They lost and I didn't agree to send my money to this...where's NATO

[kel]

why would you keep sending weapons that keep being destroyed by Russia 🇷🇺. if Ukraine is winning the war why do need more weapons?
