WHAT IS GOING ON???
President Joe Biden was JUST in Ukraine last week, pledging a $2 billion aid package, on top of all the billions in American taxpayer money he has already thrown to them.
Now, Monday, Biden Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen made a ‘surprise’ visit to Kyiv to “reinforce” the United States’ support for Ukraine, and also announce another transfer of $1.25 billion to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Where is this money coming from?? According to the US Debt Clock at this very moment in time, the United States is almost $32 trillion in debt….and that increases by the millisecond. Not to mention, there are serious issues within our own borders that need to be addressed. Like East Palestine, Ohio and Flint, Michigan. Or how about the crisis at our southern border? Yet the Biden administration continues to shell out money to Ukraine.
What gives?

Yellen announced that she is also working to seize $300 billion in Russian bank assets that were frozen by sanctions…..which she also promised to transfer to Ukraine.
This is absolutely sickening.
Reuters reported:
U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen swept into Kyiv on Monday on a surprise visit to reaffirm U.S. support for Ukraine in its struggle against Russia’s invasion and promote U.S. economic aid that is bolstering Ukraine’s war effort.
Yellen met with President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and other key government officials just days into the war’s second year, repeating U.S. assurances delivered by President Joe Biden a week ago in Kyiv.
“America will stand with Ukraine as long as it takes,” Yellen, flanked by sandbags at the cabinet ministers’ office, told Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.
Shmyhal, speaking through an interpreter, said the two discussed further U.S. sanctions on Russia aimed at weakening its economy and military and “confiscating frozen Russian assets and putting them to the benefit of the recovery of Ukraine.”
But Yellen told reporters in a phone briefing that there were still significant legal obstacles to fully seizing the $300 billion in Russian central bank assets frozen by sanctions.
Yellen also announced the transfer of the first $1.25 billion from the latest, $9.9 billion tranche of economic and budget assistance from Washington.
There is no way, in my mind, that is not a large scale money laundering scheme. If it’s not money laundering, it’s another sinister scheme.
Americans are struggling to afford groceries and utilities because of how high inflation is, but sure. Let’s send Ukraine more of our money for a war that is not ours.
