Senator Tim Kaine Indicates Biden $33 Billion Ukraine Spend Likely to be Packaged with Another $22 Billion COVID Money
May 1, 2022 | sundance | 102 Comments

Joe Biden has asked congress for two supplemental spending packages, $33 billion for the Ukraine/NATO money laundering operation (supported by both wings of the DC UniParty), and an additional $22 billion to deal with COVID, ie the money DC will use to send to states for another round of mail-in ballots for the November mid-terms.

Hillary Clinton’s former Vice-Presidential running mate, Virginia Senator Tim Kaine, appeared on CBS Face the Nation to discuss. As noted by Senator Kaine, the Senate will happily authorize the $33 billion for Ukraine; however, the COVID spending bill will more likely run into resistance from the Republicans in the Senate who want to extract some of their own Wall Street priorities.

The forward-looking solution, as it appears from the Kaine perspective, is for Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer to work out a deal where both spending packages are bundled. This approach gives cover to the DeceptiCon wing of the republicans to support the COVID mail-in ballot funding scheme, in order to keep their UniParty proxy war in Ukraine fully funded. WATCH:

There are books written about the Slavyansk events. Lots of bad blood, bad faith, bad feelings. This time, that town is once again, apparently, becoming an important point in this war. Big fighting going on there.

Many people - including the locals - question - why did Russia abandon them back in 2014. To me, it looks like back then Russia annexed Crimea, and were afraid that if they take more and get confronted, they wouldn’t be ready. So, they spend 8 years giving them some limited help, trying to work out a diplomatic solution - and getting ready.
