The White House on Thursday asked Congress to approve a $40 billion bill that includes nearly $24 billion for additional spending on the war in Ukraine.
According to CNN, the $24 billion for the Ukraine war includes $13 billion in military aid and $7.3 billion in economic and humanitarian assistance. It also includes $3.3 billion for infrastructure projects for regional countries impacted by the war.
The request comes after a poll from CNN found that 55% of Americans are against more spending on the war in Ukraine.
The $40 billion bill also includes $12 billion in domestic disaster relief and $4 billion for border security. Media reports have said the White House would try to add Taiwan aid to the spending package, but it was not included in the request.
The funds will be in the form of an “emergency” supplemental package, a type of spending not limited by the debt ceiling deal reached between the White House and House Republicans.
Since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Congress has authorized $113 billion in spending on the war. If the new package is approved, the total will reach about $137 billion.
Eddie asks Congress for $24 for a beer & cheeseburger..
and at no time does congress suggest that $24 for a beer & cheeseburger might be considered to be exorbitant.

When I was 14 or 15 in 1955 you could go to a cheap restaurant and get a thick cheeseburge, Big milk shake and an order of fries for a buck.
Cheeseburger with beer? It’s like having tea with milk. Totally eww.
You may have $24.000 to have your food tastes modified at Social Tolerance and Inclusion Reeducation camp.
This escalation is another sure sign that Ukraine is floundering, at best a stalemate. In addition there is six billion dollars being released back to Iran on some hostage deal, doesn’t leave much for the locals, does it?
sweeetantisemite continues to be badly triggered by (((Zelenskyy))).
“six billion dollars being released back to Iran”
You said it yourself . Back to Iran. In other words it isn’t ours to spend on the “locals”.
The request comes after a poll from CNN found that 55% of Americans are against more spending on the war in Ukraine.
The White House isn’t counting our noses.
The $40 billion bill also includes $12 billion in domestic disaster relief and $4 billion for border security. Media reports have said the White House would try to add Taiwan aid to the spending package, but it was not included in the request.
They’re counting Republican noses.
What’s the cut for the big guy?
And hey, Black Rock needs to eat too.
They own the place already, don’t they?
Just have to say this out loud, somewhere here.
The WH doesn’t give a flying F*ck what any of us thinks. This is not a third of the tripartite form of a representative republic. It’s a dictatorship. The other two legs ceded all authority associated with making war decades ago.
Almost everybody in the world would like to live in a democracy. What is democracy? A social tool used by humans to use the experience, education and intelligence of the population.
What is a military dictatorship? A nation that uses a civilian morale management department to maintain hatred and fear sufficient to wage unending war and also spy on the population it taxes.
Periodic and occasional voting for approved candidates is often used as a cover by dictatorships.
What leads you to believe that everyone wants to live in a democracy?
I wrote “Almost everybody” wants to live in a democracy. It is true that some prefer central control by enlightened authoritarian leaders and others dream of living in utopia without need for government.
I will argue that only small-scale democracy is a good way of governance. The moment a democracy does not require responsibility and accountability of its member is the moment it fails and becomes a government for sale to the highest bidder.
I agree with your second sentence. Small scale is problematic in a world with mega cities. It will take all of us putting our heads together to figure out how to organize ourselves to survive and prosper in balance with Earth.
Capitalism kills democracy in MHO.
I think you have an ideal democracy in mind. I would say the American Indian Tribes practiced democracy.
Just look how they wound up.
The guns won over the Tomahawk, just like in all the regime changes.
Nothing has changed, including all the broken agreements.
Does Shangri-La really exist? If so, I want in!
The democratic IDEAL would be the winner. That is what they are selling the people.
USA is a Republic, get that? (Now in name only). 🙁
The ideals of Democracy is just not the real thing.
Our Democracy is a farce too. The Constitution was written by rich landowners for rich landowners. Now it is replaced for corporations and the big shareholders.
You got that right.Black people have to fight to vote and women have to fight to have control their bodies.These struggles are going to get tougher I guess as the economy falters.
GC; There you go. You have done it again. You have spoken the truth about America in language even someone educated by our failing school system can understand.
It is a bourgeois democracy: the electors are the big burghers -the corporate big rich; and has never been otherwise.
Remember the States that said no to it,?, they were called the Confederacy, and Lincoln gave them a good smashing for their insolence……
It looks like the new industrial needs on one side for labor and big landowners on the other side and their slaves. As an outsider, that is only my impression.
Not a good example, Jay. The Confederacy’s appeal for “States’ Rights” was the right to keep slavery legal.
True, it WAS legal,,but the reasons for Lincolns blood bath was far more complex. It actually was the beginning of the end of the USA.
We could call it the modern bourgeois aristocracy. Modern dictatorship in new cloth. They own mansions and yachts, they don’t build palaces, they have no sense for architecture. That is why our cities are so ugly. (joking)
Thank you, Citizens United
😡
Yes, that Court had the honesty (stupidity) to formally acknowledge the reality. Next should be the even more primordial factum brutum: you’re not a citizen till you’re a corporation.
I will stop making statements about our shithole country when you do.
The Corporatocracy / MIC took over the US government at the end of WWII when the powers-that-were accepted the World Imperium from the failing British and French Empires.
Will another credit downgrade follow this?
That depends on the politics of the moment.
I believe almost the whole country is in hock with credit cards,mortgages and car loans # worthless student loans.Why would the Government be ant different. Before credit became so popular most people would save up for a stove,fridge or car.You can’t charge a tank or fighter plane or can they?
Without CC and the money printing machines the economy would collapse instantly.
They are destroying the middle class, and their savings and assets.
The nation is creating a home made inflation a la Weimar Republic.
Tax cuts and wars require a money printing machine.
i wish they would print some for me. I need a new TV for the Football season and an ounce of weed.
I want a new pair of Frye cowgirl boots….
Get your Frye cowgirl boots, they are great and would look great on you. You got a CC, use it, it is good for the economy too. Life is short, make the best of it.
If you have to you can always file for bankruptcy, no problem.
You’ve convinced me! At my age, I ain’t takin’ it with me! Thanks Lysi 🙂
I am happy to help. Like you I am at that, I can’t take it with me, stage.
I think, you should take your credit card and get your TV now before it gets more expensive, with the weed I don’t know, but do know in NM it is legal, maybe you could order some via Amazon?
morally speaking I cut ties with Amazon 5 years ago including Prime,that still hurts a little.
Maybe with friend’s help you could cheat a little just that one time?
I have my son help me to protect my principle, I don’t like Amazon either.
Waiting to be approved ?
“Just for a little joking?”
For your personal info weed at a legal dispensory in NJ or Pa runs 3 to 4 hundred an ounce. Anybody that lives close to a mixed neighborhood can get Primo for 100.00 or 125.00.they allow this because they want the young activists and minorites stoned instead of rioting about their living conditions.
I hardly ever use weed, but my wife has the card. She shops the sales, and often finds stuff for $25 an eighth. Back when I was a welder’s assistant at a boat factory, the welder I worked with was the “factory dealer.” Every Friday, people would run out at lunch to cash their paychecks, then walk past his car with money in hand. $75 per eighth.
I don’t know how good the guy’s stuff was, but everyone I know seems to think that even the bottom line dispensary stuff knocks the socks off 1980s street weed in terms of THC content. I know from an experience a few years back that the street stuff these days is FAR more powerful than what you got back then if you lived in South Armpit, Missouri and bought from a local welder.
Wow, $75 an eighth. What an asshole. When I was a caregiver, before weed became recreationally legal in Michigan, I never sold ounces for more than $150 (2009-2018). And people that sell the more potent shit for even crazier prices don’t pay a dime more to grow it. I always was for legalization, but I was always forgetting about capitalism.
Eight or ten years later, not too far away, I knew a guy who bought an ounce of weed a week, kept an eighth for himself, and sold the other 7/8ths. For $75 an eighth. That seems to have been the going rate in southern Missouri from the mid-80s to the mid-90s.
I used to pay $30 for a 1/4 oz. during those years.
We could barely sell our kickass homegrown, Wars; nearly everyone who partakes is growing their own. We don’t smoke ourselves.
We quit growing. I’ve got potato plants this year where the pot plants were last year
I read in RT that Ukraine is in dire straights — Ukrainian authorities have announced a mandatory evacuation in part of Kharkov Region bordering Russia’s Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics. The order comes after the Defense Ministry in Moscow said its troops had made headway in the area.
https://www.rt.com/russia/581098-ukraine-orders-evacuation-kupyansk/
CNN and BBC reporting the evacuation as well.
https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/10/europe/kupyansk-ukraine-evacuation-russia-intl/index.html
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-66466050
I do love the headline, “Ukraine ORDERS evacuations as Russia CLAIMS advances”. How exactly did that work? The Russians put out a fictional statement saying “we’re advancing” and the Ukrainians decided “oh well, we better evacuate then”??
Or. just maybe, the Russians actually ARE advancing? But CNN can’t bring themselves to admit that.
LOL!
Whatever happens we probably will not hear the truth from our government or its media stooges and accomplices
Well yeah. It’s kinda like nazi Germans evacuating the Soviets to save them from the Soviets.
Update from weekly lunch friends, One is an American of Ukrainian parents, he born here in the USA yet interested in the war there. Here’s what he said about the railroad town being evacuated;
The Ukrainian army was shelling civilians from there.
Israel will be super jealous…!
Absolutely, after everything Israel has done for us!? How could Biden do this to Israel? It’s terrible. Could Biden be an anti-Semite in Zionist clothing? (Sarcasm)
I just cannot picture Biden wearing a Yamulka.
I can…..
I would bet he does not eat Matzoh or Lox and certainly does not favor Palestine in any way.
Now THAT’S what I call sarcasm! 😂
I think they probably have mixed feelings. Good chance to get that annual $4 billion a boost.
Or, their bonus aid is already mixed in this package…!
You would think with some of that money, Biden could build a bionic suit for himself to stop falling. (Sarcasm)
No, let him fall,,maybe with enough incidents the voters will send him home.
But his brain is already badly cracked that goes for Nuland and all the other mentally challenged neocons.
How the fuck did we get so blessed?
Because the devil loves us.
Plus, he might fall just right. Of course, that will give us the cackling witch Harris.
Do you mean like McConnell and Feinstein? I am sure that most should be retired. Like perhaps term Limits?
That must apply to SCOTUS also.
It would be useful when his adult diapers need changing.
Where’s a sand bag when you need one?
Biden and the Neocons have completely lost their minds. NO MORE MONEY FOR THE WAR IN UKRAINE!
Who is going to stop this travesty?
How about and end to this recurring war shit and a whole bunch of money turned on to domestic agendas that are better for citizens to live better lives?
Yup, Wendell, gas is $3.99 a gallon here today.
ByeDone, do you even recall what gasoline IS? It’s that substance required to drive your automobile.
Do you remember what an automobile is, for that matter?
You show a sense of humor but what you are saying is not funny.
I don’t think that she is trying to be funny Wendell. Facetious perhaps…
Donna; I appreciate 98% of the comments I read here. You are one of my faves. But what is going down now here is as serious as a heart attack or cancer and just as deadly.
Good to see you again Donna! You’ve been missed! 🥰
I am 80 years old and when I first started driving my parents 1955 Chevy gas was 22cents a gallon and cigarettes were 30 cents a pack.
So, 1959 or so? Inflation doesn’t account for either. 22 cents in 1959 dollars would be $2.31 today; 30 cents would be $3.15.
I remember when gas was 30 cents a gallon…I’m 69.
And smokes were 40 cents a pack when I started. I roll my own, otherwise I couldn’t afford to indulge.
The only thing I smoke costs more then tobacco
Grow your own.
That would be nice but it is illegal in most states and I’m pretty sure ATF will have something to say if you grow tobacco. Land of the free my ass.
37 states it’s legal for medicinal purposes and 19 it’s recreationally legal. So, there is a good chance that he/she can grow his/her own.
Yes I do remember. I have a 2009 Honda civic that my younger sister gave me 5 years ago when some nutcase ran a stop sign and totalled my wonderful Acura.
In the UK average cost of Gas is £5.34 a gallon , USD 677.86 , you are driving for cheap my friend .
If they continue to print … digitize billions of dollars out of thin air then yes spend it here in the US of A not Ukraine …. or Niger.
The racists and White Supremacists that run and rule this country are not spending any public or private money to help or support minorities or people of color as well as the poor working class. It is not in their DNA.
WTF? I did not realize you are a lunatic Leftist Wendell. Seek help ….
Firstly you have to get rid of the MIC they are the ones driving the for ever wars , they have massive lobby groups bending the ears of your leaders for one purpose WAR .
If they stop financing Kiev regime, it will collapse before the October and Ukrainian militaries either desert or defect. Then we will see Russian army in Kiev. Probably it will happen anyway but they hope to postpone this, at least, until next presidential elections.
That would be a welcome October surprise. Our war mongering leader would collectively shit their pants as their lying gets exposed and the US gets another punch to the kidneys and wallet.
They don’t plan to stop the financing any soon. Their problem is: even if they invest other $160 billions into Ukraine, it can’t prevent their defeat. It is impossible to convert the cash into the weapons quick enough. There are also a shortage of mercenaries. What about “their lying gets exposed”, they can cope with it as long as they control the narrative. If, for example, American dead soldiers start to come back home in numbers, it would be really bad for them but they will not allow that to happen. Their geopolitical position will suffer but at home they are okay.
Controlling and regulating the media is the focal point.
American leaders learned hard lessons from the Vietnam war , never fight another jungle war , never fight a country that has viable air cover , and above all keep the MSM in it`s box , as you are aware the sight of body bags coming home bought about the end of the war in Vietnam , it beggars belief that JFK , and all those Presidents who followed him new the war could not be won yet they continued to sacrifice young America lives just to save face .
More money will be going to Ukraine. Live with it.
Russians are losing ground in the South as we speak. Sorry, tankies, your “hopes and prayers” for your hero Putin are fading.
It’s possible Kremlin is postponing liberation of Kiev for presidential elections in US. This is a political game first of all. The pressure on the empire needs to be applied on all fronts at the same time to have an effect in US. The parasites can deal with thousands of dead Pentagon grunts. They will just use their propaganda machine to lie about it or divert attention. They are doing already with killed generals in Ukraine. So as long as the empire control major propaganda resources, any info-political attacks are marginal at best.
Ukrainian army is still formidable and attacking. Russian generals are sparing their soldiers and waiting for the moment when the enemy will exhaust itself. Russians took already some territories in Kharkov oblast and at the moment are approaching strategically important Kupiansk town. It happened because Ukrainian army is concentrating it’s efforts in south and the north became weak.
LOL No. The Ukrainian Army is collapsing. Just wait and see ….
Been hearing that since February of last year.
Been waiting and seeing for just as long.
It`s only NATO weapons keeping them going and they are running out but Putins forces have begun hitting supply dumps taking out the weapons before they get into the battle field , if i where Putin i would hit every sea port , every air field . rail roads bridges , every conceivable trans port system .
“if i where Putin i would hit every sea port , every air field . rail roads bridges , every conceivable trans port system .”
What makes you think that if you were Putin, you would want to, and be able to, do things the current Putin either hasn’t been able to do or has some reason for not doing?
Zelensky dosen`t have the infantry to make any in roads into Russian held territory all his best fighters are dead injured or maimed , the American trained mercenaries are suffering the same fate , Putin knows if he keeps the war going the US will eventually leave Vietnam / Afghanistan come to mind .
Yep, wreck the country, and then pull out with your tail between your legs and call it a victory.
The South is the key to Crimea and the Ukes know it. The Russians are trying to get the Ukes to move troops to the Northeast. Not gonna happen.
Yeah but you’re talking about tactical operations in Ukrainian SMO. Local operations don’t have much geopolitical and geostrategic impact on the Anglo-American empire. If Kremlin wanted to do significant damage to the empire, they would have started bombing Poland. It would have promoted the collapse of nato and accelerated the collapse of entire empire. I understand that Kremlin is unwilling to take more assertive stance because they judge imperials with their own measuring stick. That is a mistake. What I’m seeing is a more global, economic de-clawing of the parasitic empire. Apparently, they see it as a safer solution. Again, a mistake.
Four more with Biden or another term for Trump. Hobsons Choice.
Can you find Urozhaine on a map?
How ABOUT NO MONEY FOR WARS !!!
MORE MONEY FOR UKRAINE.
Drug addict stole my wallet at 7/11. That bastard is buying ammo for his gun with MY MONEY!
Screaming at the sky really helps to combat such unfairness. He needs to spend my stolen money on drugs.
I’d love to agree, but Russia and China are starting WWIII, and Joe Biden is their pawn. It’s happening. Look around the globe, particularly at the string of 4 countries in Africa that just over threw their governments and are now supplying China and Russia with key minerals for the great war coming.
LOL Are you simply a low IQ troll or insane? It’s difficult to determine the difference with you.
or perhaps just ignorant? In my experience, it’s much better to provide the information than point out the ignorance. Ignorance is very easy to cure.
How did Russia or China started this war? Did Kremlin change regime in Canada, installed their own anti-US, fascist puppet regime, started a genocidal civil war against ethnic USians in Canada, pumped the country full of weapons and spread propaganda about US aggression against Canada for 8 years?
Or perhaps it was Chinese who recognized Hawaii as an independent country, fund and promote secessionist movement in Texas and California and spread ridiculous propaganda about fascist dictatorship in Washington?
I’m done wasting my time with you Commie, enjoy your #%# country and life.
No problem. You can remain ignorant and continue to consume retarded imperial propaganda.
Like wise. I don’t read propaganda which is why I’m Anti War. If you aren’t why are you here and who are the clowns up voting your anti American rhetoric? Are they from the troll farm?
You said you were done. You should at least try to keep your word if you wish to salvage any scraps of your reputation. We’ve already established that you are severely brainwashed by Anglo-American propaganda machine. Regardless if you recognize it or not, you do not have the capability to objectively assess any conflict since you ignore contributing factors. Ergo you simply do not have the capability to be antiwar.
EEENNNNOOOUUUGGH
Why does Taiwan, a rich country, as far as I know, need aid from the USA, which by all accounts is bankrupt?
No democracy can survive such a corrupt, dishonest government.
Biden better explain to the nation why Taiwan needs AID from the bankrupt USA. True, the richest people on earth are the 1% Americans, but the NATION is broke, and we do have a morally bankrupt government which is looting and shrinking the working middle class to provide AID for Taiwan? All Biden and his insane administration knows is more wars, we need a regime change.
Regime is usually used by the MSM to denote Fascists or Marxist governments that we arm to fight against because they don’t see things our way. It is rarely spoken about in the US because Big Brothers,the FBI,NSA and the other million security agencies are monitoring the way we speak and think. Freedom of speech depends on whom you are speaking about and who hears it.
Why does Israel get aid?
For me, I’m against any foreign aid. It’s mostly used to bribe political figures and oligarchs.
Israel has AIPAC, that is why, and the anti-Semitism and holocaust club, they even have a word for it, it is called “hasbara”.
I am sure the Republicratz House will Pony up the money! F##k them all!
Yes, $13 billion in weapons: Ukraine would sell most of them in Black Market…!
Yes, $7.3 billion in economic aid. With no oversight, this money would go to the Swiss and US bank accounts of the Zell boy and his Nazi gang…!
And finally, $3.3 billion for the regional impacted countries…! Exactly Which contraries are those…?! Or, is that designated for Israel…?!
Would you like the answer to your request in one, or two, words?
How about answering that request using a single digit?

hey you sumbitches, the Queen may or may not be an asshole, but she is the Queen and i will knock every-one of yalls into god-damned left field. (WTF is a left-field?) if you denigrate her.
and just so that we are clear = “left field” is where you will land after i knock you in that direction. what. oh yeah, don’t forget that my wife is a karate fighter and she handles all of my light work. what.
son of bitch, the moral of today’s story is that “you do not mess around with the Queen”
The Nuremberg Medical Trials 1946-47 and the ensuing Nuremberg Code addressed in particular the absence of consent of those involved in research of Nazi experiments, and as a consequence the principal of informed consent for the first time on an international level was introduced.
Now today the forcing of experimental vaccines on populations are in breach of these Nuremberg Codes. The authorities lied about all aspects of the vaccines and banned all experts on the subjects who tried to warn us all about the dangers.
These are crimes against humanity and Nuremberg trials need to be established to prosecute those guilty of forcing populations without informed consent to take horrendously dangerous vaccines that are seriously harming millions of otherwise healthy people.
I don’t care about the vaccine issue. The drugs saved millions of lives while the morons who did not get shots got sick and went maskless. I worry a lot more about the pieces of crap running this country and starting wars that can kill us all while zero attention is being paid to another potential mass killer Climate Change
WTF? You’ve drunk the whole pitcher of Leftwing Kool-Aid Wendell. How do you know the Mrna vaccines “saved millions”? That’s just nonsense. Further, the masks had little to no affect on transmission of the CoV2 virus. WAKE UP!
The mRNA “vaccines” appeared to reduce the severity of symptoms, and in that sense likely saved some lives.
On the other hand, case loads massively INCREASED after the introduction of those vaccines. People got vaccinated, decided they were safe, and went around getting, and passing on, COVID-19 because the mRNA “vaccines” didn’t prevent you from getting it or from passing it along.
After three years of trying, scientists have yet to produce any solid evidence that masks reduce community transmission of COVID-19. They’ve done studies, then mischaracterized the results of those studies. For example, the large study in Cambodia was advertised as “proving” the efficacy of masking … but if you read the actual study, the unmasked control group had a lower rate of positive COVID tests than the masked group.
In my opinion, the Novavax vaccine works to prevent getting COVID-19, but that’s just anecdote: Of five people in my household, I was the only one who got it (as a clinical trial guinea pig). The other four (one unvaccinated, three mRNA-vaxed) all got COVID. And I spent ten days cooped up in a mobile home with those other four people. Never tested positive, never showed symptoms.
This was a great chance for business crooks to make money. At the start we were told it would take years before safe vaccines would be available, then it was on the market in no time without adequate time for testing, then we had politics, science and business together and now we are finding out what was really going on.
Greed and corruption have a big part in it.
My mom died of COVID three months after the first mRNA vaccine passed its Phase 1 (general safety) trial and four months before the FDA gave it an emergency use authorization. Tell her about “no time.” Oh, wait, you can’t. She’s dead because they fucked around.
What did I do wrong? I repeated simple news reports. What does that have to do with your mom’s passing? My condolence to you and your family.
You didn’t “do anything wrong.” You just incorrectly complained that they delivered the vaccines with undue speed, when in fact they dragged their feet for six months after the vaccines were declared safe.
Don’t read between the lines what I did not say. I did not complain, I stated what the media reported.
You allowed your emotion to do your thinking.
Forget it, no big deal.
Died from or with COVID19? Did she have any co-morbidities? Do you realize human beings carry trillions of virus filaments for their entire adult life?
Yes, she had co-morbidities — she was 87 years old and had had various health problems for years. She would have died some time anyway. But she died shortly after COVID-19 got loose in her nursing home, with a positive COVID-19 test and COVID-19 symptoms.
Everyone I know that was vaccinated with the Mrna vaccines got COVID19 multiple times. Your being vaccinated had nothing to do with your working immune system.
“Climate Change” really? hey man “our” earth has been here for several billion years before “we” started effing up the “climate”.
hey wendell, where do you live? i live in north Los Angeles where we routinely throw sh*t such as motor oil etc directly onto the ground. (why? because we are assholes)
so once again, where do you live brother? because i will not hesitate to show up at your house with an entire truck-load of used motor oil.
But the human species was not as greedy as it is now. Maybe only animals lived on the planet so long ago.
There will always be people who know how to make lots money too. Climate Change gets tarnished by our crooks in government and business.
At the time the American medical experiments using American black soldiers without consent was not even mentioned. Even now it is kept silent.
I wonder how much of the will find it`s way into the Biden bank balance ?.
How much is he asking for the Hawaiian war after China just torched half of Maui with their space laser program? If I’m the Taiwanese, I’d probably be bolstering my brush and tinder removal programs and installing a smart grid capable of cutting power off to downed lines.
