On Wednesday, Joe Biden, the alleged president, announced another $500 million in military aid for Ukraine as Los Angeles burns to the ground.

The U.S. is set to provide Ukraine an additional $500 million in weapons quickly pulled from its existing stockpiles as the Biden administration works to get Kyiv in a stronger negotiating position before President-elect Donald Trump takes office, two U.S. officials said.

The announcement is expected during Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s final trip to meet with the Ukraine Defense Contact Group, a consortium of about 50 partner nations that Austin brought together months after Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022 to coordinate weapons support.

The meeting on Thursday is the 25th and potentially last gathering of the U.S.-led group, as the participating countries wait to see whether it will be continued under Trump.

Joe Biden sent Ukraine a $1.25 billion weapons package late last month while he was on a taxpayer-funded vacation in sunny St. Croix until New Year’s.

Biden is sending Ukraine as much money and military aid as possible in his last few weeks in office.

In September, the Biden Regime announced an eye-watering $8 billion in military aid for Ukraine during Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to Washington.

This massive giveaway comes as Americans continue to face economic hardships, skyrocketing inflation, and an unprecedented crisis at the southern border.

Since the onset of Russia’s full-scale invasion, Congress has approved nearly $175 billion in aid and military assistance for Ukraine.

According to the Council on Foreign Relations:

Since the war began, the U.S. Congress has voted through five bills that have provided Ukraine with ongoing aid, doing so most recently in April 2024. The total budget authority under these bills—the “headline” figure often cited by news media—is $175 billion.

The historic sums are helping a broad set of Ukrainian people and institutions, including refugees, law enforcement, and independent radio broadcasters, though most of the aid has been military-related. Dozens of other countries, including most members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the European Union (EU), are also providing large aid packages to Ukraine.

Meanwhile, more than 70,000 residents in Los Angeles have evacuated after wildfires erupted.

More than 1,000 homes burned to the ground.


Total destruction.

But don’t worry because Joe Biden said he has been briefed on the fires.

Only in the fantasy world of the west could those billions of dollars of
Ukraine aid pass as money well spent. Only by comparison with pumping
billions into Syria to aid ISIS and Al-Qaeda-linked rebels is financing the
Ukraine proxy war to get Russians and Ukrainians killed innocuous if not
serving a noble cause.

"If this fire continues to grow it could hop the Pacific Ocean, span across Asia, and cause immediate damage to our allies. With these weapons, they will be able to bomb the fire, and engage in tactical strikes in order to make sure the wildfire does not reach their border.”
