What if I were to tell you they could spend the money on other things too?
What else would they use federal disaster funds for? Because that’s all we can send them
Literally anything. This whole place is a disaster.
Oh? You’ve been there?
The United States? Yes. Maryland specifically? Also yes.
But not Baltimore?
Baltimore also yes. They need to pour some money into the impoverished areas around the harbor, near the aquarium. Maybe spend a billion to get people houses and jobs so I'm not asked to buy handmade woven branch things and flowers every five minutes.
If they can send it to Israel, why not Ukraine?
Because Congress didn’t appropriate the funds that way?
Ah, when it said “Biden Administration” and “quietly funded”, I thought it meant they could skip those assholes that are leaving Ukraine to die because their good-emperor is so far up Putin’s ass that he can see tonsil.
