Trump Joins the Axis. NATO Dead. WW111 Imminent?
The $300 billion is a fiction. its nowhere near that. https://www.state.gov/bureau-of-political-military-affairs/releases/2025/01/u-s-security-cooperation-with-ukraine The US military failed to properly account for stuff that was shipped, and in the end, a lot of stuff wasn't shipped. Much of the kit shipped had zero value, ie old equipment held in long term storage, essentially waiting to be scrapped (and scrapping/storage costs money, about $5-7 billion each year is spent on decommisssioning) or was out of date (minitions have an expiry date, as any one buying bullets knows), It was a sunk cost, relating to a budget spent when Ronnie Reagan was president. Some of the value has been based on replacement costs. Other moneys is not sent to Ukraine; its sent to US factories, and goes into the pockets of C-Level, shareholders, workers. Some is returned to government as tax. A portion is spend on logistics, reimbursing the US Airforce for fuel. But there are extra savings, because now the pilots don't have to spend so long training at 100% taxpayer expense. Its like you have a $1000 car. It runs ok, ok for A to B, but the seats are worn out, the rust is starting to peep through. You want a new car and want to treat yourself to a new $40,000 car, and want to trade your old car in. The dealer isn't all that interested in a $1000 banger, it will go straight to recycling anyhow. He would have given you $1000 discount anyhow, as you are a cash buyer. Your neighbour has spent his life savings treating his youngest for cancer, and had to sell his car to pay the bills. So he can't get to work. So you decide to help him give him your old car. It ain't pretty, but it works, you had looked after it.He's very happy. A few months later, you approach the neighbour asking him for the $39,000 you had to spend on buying a new car. He doesn't have the money, so you suggest taking half his garden, and then you move on to the question of his daughters, and how old they are, as you need a new wife. -

A few friends of mine have made the move to Africa...
Did you write this with a straight face ? So you're telling me in the few short weeks since Trump started stomping around that this has resulted in a sudden aids problem ? -

Weird Al and Weezer did a great remake. Watch out for that air kick from Al. Deadly. Op friends likely went to Nigeria Tanzania and Uganda.
