White House Says It’s Almost Out of Money for Ukraine War

 What happens when the most powerful nation on earth runs out of money to build missiles, bullets, tanks, bombs and war gear?  We might be really close to finding out. One thing for sure will happen if we can no longer fund a war against Russia...the bad men on earth will sit up and take final notice and say, “now it’s time!  Let’s do this!  Let’s get rid of US dominance once and for all!”

WASHINGTON, Dec 4 (Reuters) - White House budget director Shalanda Young warned in a letter to Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson and other congressional leaders on Monday that the United States was running out of time and money to help Ukraine fight its war with Russia.

President Joe Biden's administration in October asked Congress for nearly $106 billion to fund ambitious plans for Ukraine, Israel and U.S. border security.

Republicans control the House of Representatives with a slim majority, and funding for Ukraine has become politically controversial with some right-leaning lawmakers.

Young said in a letter released by the White House that cutting off funding and a flow of weapons to Ukraine would increase the likelihood of Russian victories.

"I want to be clear: without congressional action, by the end of the year we will run out of resources to procure more weapons and equipment for Ukraine and to provide equipment from U.S. military stocks," she wrote. "There is no magical pot of funding available to meet this moment. We are out of money — and nearly out of time."
