The two most important numbers I have read this week:
In Congress, The House is proud that they have finally agreed to send $1 billion in aid to Ukraine.
At the same time, Trump has spent $50 billion on contracts given to his ballroom "sponsors".
In other words, Ukraine surviving Putin's evil invasion has been budgeted one 50th of Trump's ballroom expenses.
Priorities, ladies and gentlemen… Priorities.
@shootingtsar @randahl adjusted for cost per job the number of USian jobs created by the blatant corruption is basically a rounding error, even more so when factoring how short term they'll be.
That military aid on the other hand supports a great many US jobs, and ensures US arms remain fresh and cutting edge, for better or worse.
@randahl have heard something similar myself but should 't it be 'contracts' not 'contacts'?
There are surely contacts, who gets contracts from this... sorry, early over here. 😉😉😉
Well, I certainly dislike this administration, but hey, you didn't even cite the sources.
