Funding to Ukraine over the last few years is barely a rounding error in the grand scheme of things with our ridiculous Federal budget. A lot of border wall can be built with that money for sure, but don’t pretend Ukraine funding and recycling mothballed weapons is bankrupting us.

British ANDREW BRIDGEN MP Admits UK, US, & French Troops Are in Ukraine
Contractors received big money to fortify and mine around Kharkiv. Problem: The money was taken but defenses not built.

We are now approaching a staggering $35 Trillion in official federal government debt. Over $1 Trillion per year is now required in order to pay the interest alone on that debt. Add to that another unimaginable $120 Trillion in off-budge obligations. We're just like the Titanic.
And the vast majority of that debt is from our out of control entitlements and domestic spending, not our military budget or funds to Ukraine, Israel or Taiwan.
Trump sounds as bad as big spending Democrats when it comes to reforming things like Medicare and Social Security which are truly responsible for our government debt.

Russia is definitely making a big push for Kharkiv and Ukraine is struggling right now for sure.
Russia is also changing tactics using small squads on dirt bikes and Chinese golf carts because all of Russia's big armored columns were getting wiped out by Ukrainian artillery and cheap drones.
I don't believe Russia has enough troops to occupy a huge city like Kharkiv, so they are just trying to get their lines close enough to set up artillery so they can try to rubble another civilian center.
The latest military package will probably hold Ukraine over through the rest of the year and the US presidential election where everyone will reassess depending on who wins.
While you can quibble about Putin eliding Russia’s part in the conflict, you must admit it’s maddening that no one in the West — certainly none of Biden, Blinken, or Nod — ever mentions a negotiated end to the Ukraine war. It’s almost like all the Western leaders made a secret pact never to suggest diplomacy.
The result is they look like cowards; stinking of fear, they ceaselessly worry they’re outmatched and outwitted by the Russians, and agonise that if they negotiate with Putin, he’ll somehow wind up getting the better deal. Talking won’t work! So fighting is the only option. But they’re even too scared to fight the Russians directly. So it’s the old game, ‘how about you and him fight?’
Let’s just give the Ukrainians some more missiles and let THEM fight the Russians.

Do you think the Russians bought those 'cheap drones' on Amazon? If they did, Commander in Chief Biden should put a stop to it immediately!
