"We have issued the last package that we had withdrawn and for which we had funding," John Kirby said. White House National Security Council strategic communications coordinator John Kirby said at a briefing Thursday that "the assistance we were providing has come to a halt."
The White House official also said it is very important that Congress continues to approve the allocation of money to Ukraine. He stressed that Kiev needs help more urgently during the winter period.
The headline is a bit misleading, as you can see in the 2nd paragraph of the submission text, it's the current round of assistance that has halted, and they're pushing for Congress to continue their support of Ukraine.
Yeah, the site is suspect. The article uses the Russian spelling "Kiev" instead of the Ukranian "Kyiv," which is a giveaway that the site might be spreading Russian propaganda. Also:
Argentina seems to show a particularly interesting trend. The country has the regionās highest number of RT online readers, and, in 2014, it was one of the first countries in the region to allow RT to broadcast on public television. Current Argentine President Alberto Fernandez has since added Telesur, the Venezuelan television network, to his countryās basic national television service. Telesur now streams Russian propaganda and disinformation to 83% of the Argentine population. Given the reach of these outlets, it is an unlikely coincidence that 67.4% of Argentinian residents said in 2020 that they view Russia favorably.
It's clear that Ukraine is of "National Security Interests". So I vote we just take a lil bit of the budget allocated for military spending and use it where it would be best served.
I say we send volunteers from the US military directly, and all their equipment too. Iām sure we can find plenty of right wing dumbasses in the ranks to chew up. Solves three problems at once!
I say that if we're volunteering other people's lives we start with yours. You can't simultaneously say that the Russian military threat is real and also that people in the military have disposable lives. That's precisely how Republicans view the military.
The Kurds welcome Ukraine in joining the long list of groups abandoned and left in ruins by the US after being promised support to fight their enemy as long as needed.
Biden needs to focus on committing Genocide now. He has no time for Ukrainians beating an invasion. Surely Zeloonsky understands, he unconditionally supports israel's genocide himself.
Except this is Biden's Whitehouse continuing to tell Congress to approve aid and the GOP blocking that. This was the last package the US could provide without further congressional action. That's not likely as long as GOP runs the house. Biden and the Democratic party have been pretty lock step in providing aid.
Take the Israel weapon donations, ship them through a sketchy ukranian subcontractor in Ukraine, "lose them" in such a way the ukraine government "aquires" them. Two problems solved.
They're only achieving nothing when you take the "war on drugs" at face value.
The USA has for-profit prisons, inmates that are functionally slave labor and an incarceration rate well beyond that of comparable countries.
Psychopathic neoliberals profit from the "war on drugs". It's not a byproduct of the war on drugs, it's one of the goals.
You don't have to politely accept it when they claim "it's not about that". Make them prove it by putting an end to the exploitation of prisoners and their families and investing in harm minimization strategies that actually work.
š¤£šš¤£ Wait wait hol'up. You got me with "Psychopathic neoliberals". š¤£ I gotta take a breath here, but: tell me how they're the ones "profit from the 'war on drugs'". I'm all ears! Bahahaha!
