Patriot,

It's a presidential election season, and in an ordinary
presidential election year, Congress avoids passing controversial
legislation to avoid upsetting voters before they go to the
polls.

But this is no ordinary election year.

As I discuss in my newest column - read it below - even though
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) just pushed through a massive
foreign welfare package, already the Washington establishment is
talking about passing another proposal, one that would
unconstitutionally bind down a potential Trump administration,
and the next president in 2029 and beyond.

This is extraordinarily reckless, as the war in Ukraine is
already going disastrously. But it will take great public outcry
to prevent this legislation from gaining momentum as the
situation in Ukraine gets bleaker and bleaker.

The Great Ukraine Robbery Is Not Over Yet

The ink was barely dry on President Biden's signature
transferring another $61 billion to the black hole called
Ukraine, when the mainstream media broke the news that this was
not the parting shot in a failed U.S. policy. The elites have no
intention of shutting down this gravy train, which transports
wealth from the middle and working class to the wealthy and
connected class.

Reuters wrote right after the aid bill was passed that,
"Ukraine's $61 billion lifeline is not enough." Senate Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell went on the Sunday shows after the bill
was passed to say that $61 billion is "not a whole lot of money
for us&hellip;"

Well, that's easy for him to say - after all it's always easier
to spend someone else's money!

Ukraine's foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, was far from grateful
for the $170 billion we have shipped thus far to his country. In
an interview with Foreign Policy magazine as the aid package was
passed, Kuleba had the nerve to criticize the US for not
producing weapons fast enough.

"If you cannot produce enough interceptors to help Ukraine win
the war against the country that wants to destroy the world
order, then how are you going to win in the war against perhaps
an enemy who is stronger than Russia?"

How's that for a "thank you"?

It may be understandable why the Ukrainians are frustrated. Most
of this money is not going to help them fight Russia. US military
aid to Ukraine has left our own stockpiles of weapons depleted,
so the money is going to create new production lines to replace
weapons already sent to Ukraine. It's all about the U.S. weapons
industry.

President Biden admitted as much when he said, "we are helping
Ukraine while at the same time investing in our own industrial
base."

This is why Washington is desperate to make sure that if Donald
Trump returns to the White House, the "Ukraine" gravy train
cannot be shut down by his - or future - administrations. Last
week news broke that the Ukrainian government was in negotiations
with the Biden Administration to sign a ten-year security
agreement that would lock in U.S. funding for Ukraine for the
next two and a half U.S. Administrations.

That would unconstitutionally tie future presidents' hands when
it comes to foreign policy and would leave Americans on the hook
for untold billions more dollars taken from them and sent to the
weapons industry and to a corrupt foreign government.

The U.S. weapons industry and its cheerleaders in Washington DC
are determined to keep Ukraine money flowing&hellip;until they
can figure out a way to gin up a war with China after losing the
current war with Russia. That, of course, depends on whether
there is anything left of us when the smoke clears.

When President Biden signed the $95 billion bill to keep wars
going in Ukraine and Gaza and to provoke a future war with China,
he called it "a good day for world peace."

Yes, and "War is peace." Debt is good. Freedom is slavery.

We are living in a post-truth society where billions spent on
pointless wars are "not a whole lot of money." But the piper will
be paid and the debt will be cleared.
