Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has announced that the U.S. will provide nearly $1 billion more in longer-term weapons support to Ukraine.

The United States will provide nearly $1 billion more in longer-term weapons support to Ukraine, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said Saturday as the Biden administration rushes to spend all the congressionally approved money it has left to bolster Kyiv before President-elect Donald takes office next month.

    “Longer-term”

    So it’s not going to reach them with Putin’s puppet coming into office in the short-fucking-term.

        It may not reach them

        it can not be stopped.

        These statements confuse me. Where will it go?

            Your starting premise and final conclusion do not agree. There is a reason I left the middle of the sentence out: because it is irrelevant to that fact.

            Maybe… read what you wrote again? And stop using offense as your first defense.

                Holy shit dude. I read context fine. Let me spell it out for you with crayons:

                • [In the future] “It may not reach them” (This implies a possibility of failure)

                • [in the future] “it can not be stopped” (This implies an absolute probability of success)

                These don’t fucking match.

                • “but it will be committed to a point where” can be replaced with “in the future”

                Unless you actually meant “can not” instead of the proper “cannot”. I assumed it was a typo, but could have been a very idiotic and convoluted way to say it can [possibly] not be done… in which case I guess you got me.

                Edit: I reviewed your comment history. You’re an obvious troll or idiot. The problem is, you wouldn’t be perceptive enough to know the truth.

      When Trump steps in, first he will have phone sex with Vladimir, then the only help they will get is Don the con telling them to stop this nonsense and go home.

      Optimistic of you to think that Trump’s admin won’t do whatever they want, precedent or law be damned. Boom, official act.
