Mitch McConell says the quiet part out loud.

Exact full quote from CNN:

“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

Ex-soviet countries fucking hate Russia for a good reason

No, they really don't have a good reason bugs-stalin

Like for once the US military is not doing something completely morally reprehensible and is actually opposing imperialism for once, that's a good thing.

doubt are you really that gullible?
