    You think they are venmoing Ukraine?

    The aid is for weapons delivery via 2 paths:

    1. Write off appropriation and backfill of mothballed stock we already needed to rotate out or destroy, due to shelf life

    2. Net new construction of weapons for immediate delivery to Ukraine. That construction happens in the US and us partner nations, and provides the US valuable use Intel as a cherry on top.

    It’s valuable spending either way.
