@rbreich let me take a guess: Putin's war chest, #DefenseIndustry, and the American #OilAndGasIndustry? With a side effect of taking focus off the #epsteinfiles, helping out a fellow fascist to stay in power, and weakening European democracies... So yes spending $1B per day for as long as it takes is well worth it. On top they can then again point at the huge deficit to justify stopping more woke programs as there's no money for school lunches, national parks, science, USAID, or education. It all makes sense and there won't be any real consequences as the #UnAmericanVoters still keep voting for #Republican sycophants to #MAGA ...
