Joe Biden met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House on Tuesday, as Biden has asked Congress to approve even more money to go to Ukraine in their war with Russia.
Biden made a weird face and gesture to the sky to someone as the reporters were trying to position themselves for the brief photo-op briefing with Zelensky.
Biden then showed that his priority was giving money to Ukraine, not protecting the American southern border. He scolded the Republicans, saying they had to pass "supplemental funding" of $110 billion more. He had to read from notes, even for just these brief, perfunctory remarks, which shows how far gone he is.

Right now, border security is tied to the newly proposed Ukraine funding. Biden doesn't want to pass the proposed funding for the border, he wants unfettered money for Ukraine. He said if Republicans don't drop their push for border security, it'd be "the greatest Christmas gift they could possibly give" Putin. He's previously attacked Republicans, calling them "extreme" for their proposals to protect our border. That's "extreme" to him. And he wants to be reelected in 2024 while he throws away money and doesn't protect our border.
Then he said he was taking more money and weapons already in Pentagon stores to give to Ukraine.

"I just signed another $200 million drawdown for the Department of Defense for Ukraine, and that’ll be coming," Biden told reporters during an on-camera meeting in the Oval Office with Zelensky."
The roughly $200 million in weapons and equipment will be taken from Pentagon stockpiles and include additional ammunition for the High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS), high-speed anti-radiation missiles, anti-armor systems, artillery rounds, missiles, demolition munitions, 4 million rounds of small arms ammunition, generators and other equipment and spare parts, one official said.
Instead of saving it for us, for our needs for threats that we might face to America, it's going out the door to Ukraine. So again, priority not America, priority Ukraine. Um, Biden? You're taking our money and weapons, weakening our stores, and giving them as a Christmas gift to another country. And not just a Christmas gift — you're asking for still more, which will then be followed by more, with no end in sight. He's just going to keep giving more and more as Americans are being crushed by Bidenflation. Where is all this money going, and what are the guidelines for the success/end point for it? Or are we just going on like this forever?
