Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and other European leaders have applauded the US for passing a vital €89 billion aid bill which has been struggling to make it through the House of Representatives for months.

The House swiftly approved roughly €89 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and other US allies in a rare Saturday session as Democrats and Republicans banded together after months of hard-right resistance over renewed American support for repelling Russia’s invasion.

With an overwhelming vote, €57 billion in aid for Ukraine passed in a matter of minutes, a strong showing as American lawmakers race to deliver a fresh round of US support to the war-torn ally. Many Democrats cheered on the House floor and waved blue-and-yellow flags of Ukraine.

Ah, so you’re just not inclined to see reason, and toss in a little bit of whataboutism with your replies that minimalize a full scale invasion of a sovereign country as a “turf war.”

It’s my mistake for engaging with an obviously disingenuous poster. You can go fuck yourself.

If you think its reasonable to amp up the war machine and then hand it over to Cheeto Mussolini, I guess we're working with different definitions of the phrase.

You can go fuck yourself.

My man, try touching some grass. You're way to invested with this thread.

"My man, try touching some grass. You're way to invested with this thread."

Says the "person" with at least 15 replies in this thread... See, I may sound high, but at least I can admit when I'm wrong or crazy... You can't even see how sad you are anymore.
