We fund one third of Ukraine's government, which includes salaries for teachers, janitors, and everyone else, not just the military. Meanwhile, people in our country are struggling to afford basic necessities like food and medicine. We need to focus on our own problems instead of paying for their government. Our priority should be to stop the killing and provide American leadership, rather than giving more money without any conditions.

We have an abundance of money for funding war machinery and foreign aid, like $8 billion to Ukraine. We also support Ukrainian businesses and banks with taxpayer funds. Humanitarian aid often ends up in corrupt hands due to lack of oversight.

President Zelensky of Ukraine has gained control of the media, banned political opposition parties, and cancelled the upcoming presidential elections. This move is seen as an attempt to silence critics of corruption in Ukraine and the ongoing war. Comparisons are drawn to past instances, such as South Vietnam holding elections during the Vietnam War and Iraq conducting democratic elections during a period of violence. The speaker questions President Biden's support for Ukraine, suggesting that it undermines democracy while taking money from American taxpayers. The concern is raised that if our government supports canceling elections in Ukraine, they may justify doing the same in the United States during times of war.

Zelensky was an actor and comedian. He was never involved in politics, never involved in governance, government, nothing. Not one of those things. In 2014, when Ukraine's government was overthrown in a coup, Zelenskyy was placed there, his only experience being playing the role on TV and in movies. Ukraine has always been known to be one of the top 10 most corrupt countries in our entire world. This war started in 2014, and although Russia made the first move, the question you guys need to start asking yourselves is, was Russia actually the aggressor? Zelenskyy has banned all opposing media. Zelenskyy has single handedly banned any oppositional party. There have been documented cases of Zelensky's military showing neo Nazi strategy called the Azov battalion. Liberals, who was laundering money with Russia and Ukraine? Hunter Biden.

Speaker 0 describes Zelensky as an American hero and contrasts his public image with the underlying narrative. He explains Zelensky was totally apolitical, an outsider with no government experience, a comedian, and the star of a planned TV show called Servant of the People. In the show, the main character creates a YouTube video that calls out oligarchs and corruption, becomes popular, and is drafted as a protest candidate who eventually becomes president. In real life, the TV show is supported by oligarch Kolomoisky, who owned the channel and did a large, nonstop promotional push to make it the number one show, including primetime slots, ads, and crossovers with the news. In 2018, a year before the show ended, Zelensky formed a political party named Servant of the People, the same title as the show, and secretly produced another season of the show. In April 2019, he announced his candidacy on Instagram, with no campaign, no rallies, no real platform, and he skipped presidential debates; his few early press conferences were poor. Kolomoisky’s channel provided Zelensky with endless airtime and favorable polls while attacking his enemies. Speaker 0 continues that US intelligence agencies, CIA and NSA, helped by funding democracy campaigns in Ukraine—reportedly around $5 billion—funneled through NGOs, with USAID embedding advisers in Zelensky’s organization to assist the campaign. On election day, Zelensky wins with 73% of the vote. Afterward, the war with Russia occurs, he declares martial law, and elections are ended. An election in 2024 is anticipated as the result of democracy money. He asserts Zelensky is an actor in a carefully designed television show—“a construct,” akin to Epstein—an created entity that works, and asks what Americans think about his popularity. Speaker 1 responds that Americans are disappointed by the ongoing war and deaths, noting that the war’s human cost is a major failure of promises from the Trump administration, who claimed he would resolve it in 24 hours. He adds that conscripting 60-year-old men and Americans and others going to fight are part of the situation. He states that the Ukraine narrative, and wars in general, are not organic: wars like this are driven by demands for primacy, control, and wealth, rather than being spontaneous. He reflects that Putin didn’t suddenly decide to invade; similarly, the broader pattern of power is not organic. He notes the Russian soldiers were told they would be welcomed and that they had dress uniforms, and compares to expectations in Iraq, where it was promised that Iraqis would welcome forces. He asks what the Ukraine situation is really about, and comments that human war reduces to a few centers of power like NATO, China, the Soviet bloc, and oil-producing countries, ultimately converging to two leaders in a room who must kill each other, as part of the decay of empire, with the U.S. maintaining about 760 overseas military bases.

Since Biden took office, the U.S. has spent $100 billion in an undeclared war against Russia, primarily funding Ukraine with $75 billion. Despite claims of Ukrainian victories, many believe Ukraine cannot win against Russia's superior resources. Most Americans oppose further funding, yet Congress continues to push for more aid. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson plans to prioritize a $60 billion aid package for Ukraine, despite a lack of support from Republican voters. Critics argue that this funding diverts attention from pressing domestic issues, like illegal immigration and national debt. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene emphasizes the disconnect between lawmakers and their constituents, urging Americans to hold their government accountable and prioritize domestic needs over foreign wars.

I can't stand Putin, but Zelenskyy rubs me the wrong way too. The idea that support from the U.S. is never-ending is a pervasive problem with entities like NATO, the UN, Europe, and Canada. Without the U.S., Ukraine would be Russia. These modern comforts are supported by the U.S. and our military, which emboldens people like Putin. There's no winning without the U.S., so don't be a jerk in the Oval Office. Zelenskyy always wants a photo op, walks around like cartoon Steve Jobs, and is probably working on a book deal. He says they've been alone since day one, which isn't true. They've received hundreds of billions of dollars, largely from the U.S. A little gratitude would be nice when you visit our Oval Office.

The focus is on the exploitation of Ukraine's fertile land, with foreign corporations eyeing agricultural opportunities. Despite promises of a referendum on land sales, the moratorium was lifted in 2021, allowing foreign-controlled companies to buy land through loopholes. The U.S. has heavily invested in Ukraine, providing over $46 billion in military aid since early 2022. Concerns arise that once peace is established, Ukraine will face immense debt repayment demands, with current debts exceeding its GDP. The country is experiencing severe inflation and rising poverty, while many citizens are sent to the front lines, leading to significant casualties. Zelensky's actions appear to align with foreign interests, raising questions about the future of Ukrainian sovereignty and the well-being of its people.

President Zelensky of Ukraine has gained complete control of the media, banned political opposition parties, and even outlawed the second largest orthodox Christian church. Now, he has canceled the upcoming presidential elections. This is concerning because even during times of conflict, countries like South Vietnam and Iraq still managed to hold elections. President Biden claims to defend democracies, yet he continues to financially support Ukraine in their conflict against Russia, which is seen as a corrupt autocracy. Zelensky's motive for canceling elections is to silence critics of corruption and the war. Those in our government who support him may believe that canceling elections is justified during times of war.

It's absurd to claim one person is worse than another. We oppose the war for various reasons: it's a form of money laundering, it's harming Christians, and it's unnecessary. Even the New York Times previously described Zelensky as corrupt. Now, he's suspended elections, shut down churches, and is conscripting young Christian men to die. I view Zelensky as equally corrupt and criminal. I've seen videos of him dragging Christian men to their deaths, which is appalling. He is responsible for misappropriating billions of dollars, with no accountability for where the money is going. I find him utterly despicable.

We don't have any extra money to send to Ukraine, considering our massive deficit of over $1.5 trillion. Borrowing money from China to support Ukraine doesn't make sense. We don't have a rainy day fund with trillions of dollars just sitting around. Instead, we would have to borrow the money, which leads to inflation. Since Russia's war in Ukraine began, American taxpayers have already provided $113 billion to Ukraine. We have many issues in our own country that need attention before we borrow more money to fuel a war in another nation.

Ukraine cannot win its war against Russia, even with extensive Western support. The situation is dire, with a significant loss of life among Ukrainians. Recently, the U.S. Senate proposed sending an additional $60 billion to Ukraine, despite its corrupt government and ongoing issues. There's a chance to stop this legislation in the Senate, but if it passes, the House could potentially improve or reject it. This funding not only supports Ukraine for 2024 but also ties future presidents' hands, limiting their diplomatic options. Many senators seem to believe prolonging the war serves Ukraine's interests, ignoring the reality that it leads to further destruction and suffering. Ultimately, the motivations appear to align more with military contractors than the well-being of Ukrainians.

I've asked Congress to investigate where the money sent to Ukraine has gone. The American people deserve to know, as it's our taxpayer money. There's reason to be concerned because Ukraine has been known for corruption and money laundering. It's not just a billion dollars; it's a hundred times that amount sent to one country. Zelenskyy claimed Russia fired a rocket into Poland, which would be an act of war, but it turned out the rocket came from Ukraine. If Zelenskyy is going to beg the world for more money and demand more from the US, he needs to be more careful about making global statements that could bring us to the brink of war. We can't have full faith and trust by giving a leader a hundred billion dollars when he says, "I'm not telling you where the money went."

We're being pimped by Zelensky and the US government. Our hard-earned money is being sent to Ukraine, and when Zelensky gets it, he says it's not enough. We can't even afford basic necessities here, yet we're sending billions to Ukraine. Zelensky is having steak dinners with celebrities while our veterans sleep on the streets and children go hungry. It's infuriating and makes no sense. If people want Ukraine to have money, they should send their own. We need to take care of our own problems first.

We're spending $350 billion, and Europe gets their money back as a loan, while we're just giving it away. Why didn't Biden demand equalization? Zelensky, a dictator without elections, better move fast or he won't have a country left. If he asks Biden for money, Biden says yes. What about the foreign bank accounts and the woman the FBI didn't interview? What if we started opening those bank accounts? He's compromised. I'm not saying that's happening, but it could happen.

President Zelensky was initially willing to sign a deal, but delayed it, even after being urged to do so in person at the White House. An agreement was prepared for signing, but Zelensky never signed it. An unelected president of a client state, whose bureaucrats' retirement accounts are funded by American taxpayers, has a retirement age of 60, while France is 62 and Italy is 67. Zelensky, a performer and ordinary person, rose to the occasion heroically but is now stuck and under pressure. Some of his government officials are good, but he's not getting the best advice. The proposed agreement ensures money benefits both American and Ukrainian people, unlike rapacious Chinese deals or loans to own. It's a genuine economic partnership where both parties profit. This agreement regulates the flow of money, which is why some people don't like it.

We're also wondering about the money situation in Ukraine. The U.S. has given over $174 billion and has inspectors on the ground to track it. Some of that money is spent here to build weapons systems that we send over, so it's not all sitting in a bank in Ukraine. Regarding elections, every democratic state has them, even during wars. The Ukrainian constitution currently prevents them until the war ends, but they will eventually need to hold them. That doesn't mean Zelensky should leave, but the willingness to have elections, even during wartime, is a sign of a healthy democracy. Next week, we're going to the Munich Security Conference, but reports that we're presenting a peace plan are false. I did not speak with that news network. If there is a peace plan, it will be presented by the President of the United States, not myself.

Ukraine cannot win its war against Russia, even with extensive Western support. The ongoing conflict is leading to significant loss of life and economic degradation. Recently, the U.S. Senate proposed sending another $60 billion to Ukraine, despite its corrupt government and ongoing issues. There is a critical procedural vote that could potentially kill this legislation, and efforts are being made to sway Republican senators against it. This funding not only supports Ukraine in 2024 but also ties future presidential decisions, limiting diplomatic options. Many senators seem to believe prolonging the war serves Ukraine's interests, but this perspective overlooks the devastating impact on the Ukrainian population and distracts from pressing domestic issues.

Giving two-thirds of the funding as debt creates a trap for Ukraine, which already struggles to repay existing debts. This situation effectively leads to the colonization of Ukraine, as foreign corporations, particularly from Europe and America, are now allowed to purchase large tracts of land. Since the IMF's 2021 loan, these corporations have acquired more land in Western Ukraine than the Russians have in the east. This debt burden undermines Ukraine's sovereignty and raises questions about the commitment to the welfare of ordinary Ukrainians. Politicians supporting the ongoing conflict have not shown personal sacrifice, as none have fought or sent their children to the front lines.

Putin knew that Ukraine was stealing money we sent them when Biden was in office. Trump will stop that, and the fighting will stop. I stand by my statement that Trump will stop us from throwing money down the drain in a war we have nothing to do with. Their own president said they don't know where half the money went. You're paying off the war machine to prolong this war, and men are dying because of it. That's wrong and Trump will stop it. At the beginning of the war, we were on both sides with gas contracts with Russia and giving money to Ukraine. Putin is responsible for the war. But why isn't there outrage about China's mistreatment of people? Because everything is made in China, and it's all about the dollars.

Zelensky got the U.S. to spend $350 billion on a war that was unwinnable and unnecessary, a war that wouldn't have started under my presidency. Without U.S. involvement, this war will never end. The U.S. has spent far more than Europe, who will get their money back as a loan, unlike us. Why didn't Biden demand equalization, especially since this war affects Europe more? Zelensky admits half the money we sent is missing and refuses to hold elections. He played Biden, a dictator without elections needs to act fast. We will negotiate an end to the war with Russia because Biden and Europe have failed. Zelensky is upset he wasn't invited to Saudi Arabia. The losses are staggering, and Zelensky has done a terrible job. To end the war, you must talk to both sides, which hasn't happened for three years. We aim for a ceasefire and stability in Europe and the Middle East.

Putin was dealing with Biden, and he knew Ukraine was stealing money we sent. Under Trump, that stops, ending the fighting and our wasted money in a war we shouldn't be in. Ukraine's president admitted not knowing where half the money went, which has been widely reported. The money sent to Ukraine is paying off "war pimps" at the Pentagon, prolonging the war for profit while young men die. We were on both sides at the start of the war with gas contracts with Russia and giving money to Ukraine. Missile defense systems went to Ukraine and members of Congress had stock in the missile defense company. Putin is responsible, but why isn't there outrage about China? Because everything is made there and it's all about the dollars.

Since Joe Biden became president, the US government has spent billions of dollars on an undeclared war against Russia without explaining its purpose or benefits. The war has resulted in Ukraine receiving billions of dollars in aid, but it has not been successful in ending the conflict. Ukraine is unable to defeat Russia, and the rest of the world is aware of this. However, US media continues to falsely claim that Ukraine is winning. Republican leaders like Mitch McConnell are pushing for more funding to Ukraine, despite opposition from the majority of American voters. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene criticizes the funding, highlighting the country's own issues and the lack of support from the American people.

Zelensky's actions in Ukraine reveal a troubling authoritarianism, as he has banned opposition parties, shut down critical media, and arrested political opponents. Recently, he announced plans to ban the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, claiming it poses a threat due to its ties to Russia, despite its denunciation of the invasion. This move has been largely ignored or excused by U.S. leaders and media, who continue to support Zelensky as a defender of freedom. However, the reality is that Ukrainians face severe restrictions on their rights, including worship and political expression. The Ukrainian government is prioritizing its power over democratic principles, raising questions about the true nature of the support being given to them by the West.

I recently attended a meeting in an expensive Alpine town, overwhelmingly populated by wealthy Ukrainians spending lavishly. This is a pattern across Europe; the richest people are Ukrainian. This money, I believe, should belong to American taxpayers. Furthermore, I know that a significant portion, possibly half, of the arms we send to Ukraine are being sold, some ending up with drug cartels on our border. Our intelligence agencies are aware of this. The media reports Zelensky's denials, but the New York Times could easily order Ukrainian weapons online—this is a fact. The official death toll is likely a lie; the entire situation is a deception. Sending billions in aid without tracking its use is irresponsible, and the possibility of these weapons being used against us is terrifying. This situation mirrors the issues we faced with the Mujahideen in the 80s. The lack of transparency and accountability is appalling.
