Your tax dollars at work — making corrupt Ukrainian politicians rich. The US Senate passed a bipartisan $1.5 trillion bill on March 10th that included $13.6 billion in aid to Ukraine.
Chuck Schumer touted the aid to Ukraine and pointed to it as a pressing reason for the Senate to quickly pass the massive $1.5 trillion spending bill. This was the same week that inflation hit 7.9% in the US — the highest inflation rate in 40 years.
So where is the money going? Does anyone know? Does anyone care?
Here’s one answer. The corrupt Ukrainian officials, like the corrupt Afghan government officials before, are fleeing the country stuffed with cash, some of that cash is taken from your pocket and from the mouths of your family and kids!
