Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

$60 bil for Ukraine?
If the US is serious about helping Ukraine, they need to send them F-35s and deploy M1 Abrams MBTs and actually give Ukraine state-of-the-art technologies, not those already stripped of their best features because they’re afraid of technology falling into the Russian hands. Only then can they start to systematically destroy critical Russian military infrastructures, pushing the Russians back to the point where they could no longer sustain the war effort, and then forcing the Russians into a negotiation. Otherwise they’re just hanging Ukraine out to dry.
They don’t want to end the war, they want to bleed the Russians dry while printing cash for weapons manufactures
God damn this cursed country
Ending a war is a sub-optimal outcome for the capitalists.
It's also probably a huge money and weapons laundering scheme
Its a war of attrition, and the US’ supplies consist of Ukrainian men
I too would love to see Russia shoot down the wunderwaffe plane
Even then it wouldn’t work. USA doesn’t have the quantity of wunderwaffen, they will lost to attrition because Russia has quantity
