‘Hey! All of you shut up so I can tell you about how I’m going to use your money! What? No, not for you. For people halfway around the world that we’ve already given over $130 billion of your money to.’
That was essentially what President Joe Biden told reporters while sitting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House on Tuesday.
As reporters attempted to shout over one another in an effort to actually get a question through to Puppet — I mean, President — Biden, the octogenarian literally hushed them so he could make an announcement.
“Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Hush up a second!” Biden exclaimed. “I got one more thing to say. I’ve just signed another $200 million drawdown from the Department of Defense for Ukraine, and that’ll be coming quickly.”

For context, you might be asking, ‘What exactly does a drawdown mean in these situations?’

According to the U.S. Department of State, a drawdown “allows for the speedy delivery of defense articles and services from Department of Defense stocks to foreign countries and international organizations to respond to unforeseen emergencies. Such assistance can begin arriving within days—or even hours—of approval.”
So basically, a drawdown is a depleting of our own military resources in order to aid another country in a conflict that we’re supposedly not involved in.
But, this isn’t the first drawdown of the Biden regime’s tenure.
Since December 23, 2021, as reported by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), the Biden regime — using Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA) — has enacted 50 drawdowns.
Now, while that might seem like a lot, it’s nothing in comparison to the amount of money those 50 actions have totaled. All in all, those 50 actions alone, for PDAs only, have totaled $25,250,000,000. That’s “B”illion with a “B.”
Following the announcement, and Zelensky giving Biden a “thank you,” reporters attempted once again to yell over one another in a failed attempt to get any answers from the president. The reporters then left the room, with one reporter even thanking Biden for his time.
Imagine someone coming to your house, telling you to cook dinner, then silencing you so they can tell you they’re going to eat all of it, and then you thank them for the “privilege.”
It would be laughable if it weren’t true and just as sad.
