“Estimates are that #Russia has reaped $6 billion of benefit from this [#Iran] war since it began just two weeks ago.

That’s about $400 million a day from the increase in oil prices and the easing of sanctions, which is somewhat puzzling to me….

I just think the record should show that the real winner so far is Vladimir Putin to the tune of $6 billion in two weeks.” - Sen King (D-ME)

I feel like every time Ukraine starts to get the upper hand, the fucking Dotard Traitor gives Putin a lifeline. ☠️ Infuriated does even touch my level of rage. 🤬

@AnnaAnthro It would have been cheaper for the Americans to just airdrop the money to Moscow.

@AnnaAnthro Of course it's wrong. Trump did it. He may have gone along with Bibbi's wild ride with easing sanctions as a planned side effect. As far as these morons plan anything, anyway.

What fraction of the $6B was crypto’d to the US President and his family? We probably will never know because oligarchs are lawless cretins.
