Hello, everybody, and thank you for tuning in to the weekly report. As Maui Burns, Biden demands another

0:09.0

24 billion dollars for Ukraine.

0:13.0

I'm not a big fan of federal government disaster relief.

0:17.0

Too much of the time the money never gets to those who need it most, and too often Washington's armies of disaster experts

0:25.0

are more interested in pushing people around than helping them.

0:31.0

Nevertheless, it's hard to look at recent footage of the devastation in Maui and then hear President Biden tell Congress that he needs another 24 billion dollars for Ukraine.

0:44.0

How can this administration continue to justify tens of billions of dollars for this losing war that is not in our interests

0:53.0

while the rest of the United States disintegrates?

0:58.0

Biden's new 24 billion dollar request comes on top of well over 120 billion dollars spent to fight the US proxy war on Russia in Ukraine.

1:10.0

Heritage Foundation, budget expert, Richard Stern, has done the math and determined that Biden's spending on the Ukraine war thus far will cost each and every American household $900.

1:26.0

How many Americans would rather have those $900 back in their pocket rather than in the pockets of Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Ukraine's oligarchs?

2:20.0

Corruption scandals continue to break in Ukraine.

2:23.0

Just last week Zelensky fired the heads of all local draft boards for corruption. Some press reports suggest that sales of luxury cars in Ukraine had broken all previous records.

2:40.0

I wonder why. No wonder the tide of US public opinion is turning against further involvement in the war.

2:48.0

Recently CNN found that among all Americans more than 55% are opposed to continued aid to Ukraine.

2:59.0

Among Republicans, the number of opposing more aid to Ukraine rises to three out of four. That is why we are finally starting to see more Republican members raising concerns.

3:13.0

I'd like to think they have seen the light that an aggressive and interventionist foreign policy is not in America's interests, but most likely they are worried about losing elections.

3:28.0

Whatever their motivation, this turning tide should be welcomed. Yet the Biden administration persists in backing Ukraine even as the US mainstream media is increasingly pointing out.

3:43.0

The obvious Ukraine is not winning and cannot win and continue to pour money into a losing cause will just result in bankruptcy at home and more dead Ukrainians overseas.
