White House asks Congress for $106 billion for Ukraine and Israel wars
The White House on Friday asked Congress for nearly $106 billion to fund ambitious plans for Ukraine, Israel and U.S. border security, but offered no strategy for securing the money from a broken Congress.

I wonder what a poll in the US would look like if they let the people vote on this. But its an all or nothing vote. Like we vote to give both countries aid or neither.
Why?
Why do we need to fund a genocide to stop a genocide?
Just why?
The worst part about being pro Ukraine and pro Palestine is realising Ukraine supports Israel.
Ukraine's funding disappeared as one of the concessions for the 45 day funding bill while republicans pick a new speaker.
I think Zelensky is trying to play this smart because it ties something he needs (military funding) to something republicans need to support (Israel)
Whether or not he agrees with it doesn't matter, because as a leader this is the best move for him to get funding back.
100% this… words are cheap, and he needs to do everything he can for his country… supporting palestine or staying silent gets him nothing, and potentially loses quite a bit in retaliation
it really doesn’t matter what he thinks is fair or just
It should open some eyes on who stands where but alas it isn't.
I say let them all deal with their own shit and the US can deal with it's own problems (which are piling up sky fuckin high). America has completely gone to shit while meddling with every other part of the globe.
Then you vote against it.
So I need to vote against supporting Ukraine?
I feel like you get it, you're just trolling.
