  2. While we are at it, why don’t we give Ukraine any weapons seized by law enforcement that is no longer needed as evidence?

  5. This is why I love President Joe Biden. There’s a wit to his actions, giving the finger to both pro-Russia Republicans and Iran. 😉

  7. It’s a start but by no means a game changer.

    The west needs to give Ukraine the Russian funds they’ve seized to purchase whatever they think they need. Let’s get this over with.

  8. Well since nobody has said it yet, Modern problems require modern solutions.

  11. WHOA! Lets see Congress try to stop this from happening.

    I suspect they will quote the 8th Commandment Thou Shall Not Steal

    And demand the troops deliver the weapons to their intended destination, the Houthis.

  14. Couldn’t agree more. Let’s use what they’ve seized. Russian funds for Ukrainian freedom! #ModernSolution

  15. Stop reporting that US lawmakers are blocking aid and report that Trump is doing it. If Trump thinks he’s catching the blame Johnson will have a change of heart over night.

  16. Ukraine: air defense plz

    USA: here are some looted Kalashnikovs

  17. Biden, be very careful here. Part of what the right strategists are doing. Is trying to push you into an Iran/Contra, type of scandal. This is dangerously close. Between Netanyahu and the right, they are looking to screw you over.

  18. I hope Israel transfers whatever it seized from hamas to Ukraine as well.

  19. Now it’s time to do the right thing in US Congress – vote support for Ukraine, Taiwan. Israel as appropriate

  20. This is a great idea we should just start a war to get war trophies to give to Ukraine, I heard Belarus has a lot of surplus at the moment.

  21. > “The US government transferred over 5,000 AK-47s, machine guns, sniper rifles, RPG-7s and over 500,000 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition to the Ukrainian armed forces” on Thursday, the US Central Command said on social media.

    > “These weapons will help Ukraine defend against Russia’s invasion” and **are enough material to equip a brigade**, it said,

    Not bad! We can do more but I was expecting a handful of second hand guns in various shapes, but it looks like some quality stuff that’s ready to go.

  22. This is unfortunately starting to sound vaguely Iran-Contra-y

  24. US gives Ukraine some old junk it found.

    Where are the 155mm artillery shells, the F-16s, the 300KM ATACMS, the tanks?

    edit. Downvotes for pointing out that second hand small arms junk is not what Ukraine needs or asked for.

  25. Can’t wait to see republicans attempt to compare this to Iran-Contra… after all the word Iran is in the headline

  27. hoping we have the same news article regarding south korea and the boat they seazed.
