President Biden delivers remarks on providing assistance to Ukraine — 3/16/22

President Joe Biden delivers remarks on the assistance the United States is providing to Ukraine. The Secretary of State Antony Blinken; the Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen H. Hicks; and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark A. Milley attend.

Biden signed a funding bill to keep the government running through September and send $13.6 billion in aid to Ukraine.

The money for Ukraine will go both to helping refugees fleeing Russia’s invasion and to defensive equipment and training for the country’s military.

Biden is set to travel to Brussels next month for a summit among NATO leaders.

Hundreds of billions to protect Ukraine’s borders but not a cent to protect our own 🤦‍♂️

[Bwagg]

I don't care what you did last week or last year!!! What are you doing now!? Not enough! Disgusting!

[slava]

Thank you, USA, and all Americans that support us!!

[patsypadilla]

Why does Biden always come out looking like he just finished a bowl of shredded wheat and he wasn't quite yet done.

[Jhayes]

He can’t even talk . Just keep giving away our money . We get screwed in taxes every year, rich get rich poor get poorer, let’s go Brandon

[cominus]

So he basically gave Ukraine 2022's US's military budget?

[ongke]

At least Biden kept his promise to make America is last. Let’s go Brandon!

[DwnRace]

Barack Obama has privately voiced concerns that Joe Biden could 'f--- things up, '

[daveallison]

American people should be asking themselves this simply obvious question… instead of listening to Brandon’s blame game we should be asking-how is it we became so dependent upon Russian oil in the first Yup,

[Jomor]

Back to the basement Brandon time for a pamper change then nap time. You worked so hard today.. FJB

[jim]

It’s so horrible that this is our leader

[kenbarzo]

Just another billion dollars we don't have. Just keep on printing it.

[nohand]

Don't Blame Me. I voted for Trump 👍👍

[MrMonsterKen]

This failure couldn't do anything right if he tried. Ukraine has every right to defend themselves!

FJB.

[cherylslayden]

How about send money and help to OUR borders

[brianjohnson]

[williemclean]

[michaelrapier_Texas]

Lack of leadership in Washington is VERY concerning…

[dmo]

This comment section is a total dumpster fire. Save your brain cells and move on.

Democrats -“I don’t like Biden either I just can’t handle mean tweets because it hurts my feelings”
