Is this a separate aid package from the 60 billion package? Or is it a slice of it?

[illkidd]

How much in that package is being sent to Hawaii and Baltimore. Or because they are American states they don’t matter😡

[stephenclabaugh]

And if you’re a homeless person you ain’t got nothing coming

[lorihoop]

But not for Israel. Guess that means the government stands with Hamas?🤔🤔

[ericp]

What exactly is in the big aid package? They don’t sound very optimistic with it…

Had a epiphany this war is not a normal war its actually a war on how long people have an attention span. Its sad but so true

The spin of from USA support for Ukraine means they have upped their own game in terms of new weaponry.Any time they get into a conflict depending on how serious the issue is dictates operational logistics. Innovation is a high priority at all time's. Increasing their array of the best operational equipment added to their itinerary. Only the best is made by the best to win wars.This is the best going to Ukraine.Their name is on this. I pity the people who are going to be under this firestorm.Slava Ukraine 🇮🇪🇺🇸🇺🇦

“When we stand up for what we believe in—for what’s right—there is always a chance that we risk the very things we fight for: our safety, our lives, our freedom. But if we stand down, the risk is definite.”

Cool👌 Now we have less of a reason to start WWIII

[davidkirksey]

Geez when will the spending on foreign aid ever end.

[magicmerlin]

Ukraine fights for freedom and independence from Russia’s rule and to protect their land from being stolen. I fully support sending them whatever they need. I’ve worked and paid taxes all my life and never expected a damn handout from anybody. God willing, some of the taxes I’ve paid will go to this just cause and I’m proud of my contribution to Ukraines freedom.

[brokentoothstudio]

No more support for Ukraine, my tax dollars

[sotonteve]

The aid actually goes to American companies to produce equipment for ukraine, hiring Americans. Creating jobs for Americans

[texaspapa]

How about our reparations for centuries of slavery and racism??
