  1. So it was the government that won the 1.25b mega millions jacket!

  2. Money! Money! Money!…well, everyone, baby boomers are still walking on this planet… I just look forward to the 2040 elections. Hopefully, we will all still be here.

  3. Good. The people of Ukraine needs this support to repel the brutal invasion of their country.
    Ukraine has bravely stood up to the brutality of the Russian government for years and we absolutely should stand by them. It makes me proud as an American that we can send them this aid.

    There was a horrible missile and drone attack ON CHRISTMAS. Remember **this is who Putin is and what he does – he terrorizes people** even and especially on their holidays. He has attacked Ukraine on Christmas almost EVERY year since the Maidan revolution in 2014. Ukraine should get our support. Слава Україні, слава Героям!! 🇺🇦💙💛

  4. Donald Trump withheld military aid to Ukraine to pressure Zelensky to go on CNN and announce that Joe Biden was under investigation, and that it was Ukraine, not Russia, that interfered in the 2016 election to try to help Hillary Clinton.

    He withheld military aid just to cheat in the 2020 election.

  7. It’s about time. The west built huge military stockpiles for the possibility of Russian tanks in Europe, but now we can’t manage to get old surplus to Ukraine when Russian tanks are actually invading Europe.

    There is another 5 billion in surplus equipment already approved by congress that just needs to get there.

  8. Misleading title.. correct one is: US made 1.25bln contract with US companies to resupply us mil.stocks.

  9. What about sending $1.25 billion to the homeless people in America?

  11. Why not send more of those frozen Russian $600bill assets to Ukraine beforehand?

  13. Why not make it a 100 trillion? It’s not like these gigantic numbers even matter anymore.

  16. Yeah the US has never cared about helping others, always another agenda

  18. 1 we have plenty of time to get 3 billion more than this in Ukraine before Trump takes office. Or send cash
    2 Europe needs to get off their asses too
    3 send them everything
    100 Apache
    1000 hellfire
    50 f 16
    A million shells
    100 Abrams

    I know they can’t take it all but they need most of it and Poland can hold it for them in a depot

    There is no way Russia will make it another 3 years. But Ukraine can

  19. > Earlier this month, senior defense officials acknowledged that that the Defense Department may not be able to send all of the remaining $5.6 billion in Pentagon weapons and equipment stocks passed by Congress for Ukraine before President-elect Donald Trump is sworn in.

    I don’t understand why they can’t make this work!

  20. So the warmongers are trying to make a quick buck at the last moment. Nasty.
