Biden Unveils Latest $400M Package For Ukraine, But US Artillery Shells Already Depleted, by Tyler Durden

The U.S. has depleted its stockpile of artillery shells and it will take 5 years to replenish. But don’t worry, we’re going to pick a fight with China pretty soon. From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:

The Biden administration on Friday announced its third tranche of new aid for Ukraine since President Biden signed into effect Congress’ $95 billion foreign aid package, which includes $60 billion total funding for Ukraine.

This newest authorized package is for $400 million and is to include High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems, Patriot missiles, and various munitions including anti-aircraft and anti-tank ammo, and armored vehicles like Bradleys.

“It will also provide a number of coastal and riverine patrol boats, trailers, demolition munitions, high-speed anti-radiation missiles, protective gear, spare parts and other weapons and equipment,” according to further details in the Associated Press. “The weapons are being sent through presidential drawdown authority, which pulls systems and munitions from existing U.S. stockpiles so they can go quickly to the war front.”

    Sorry there won’t be any vote on that.

    Is it all kabuki to burn it all down for the banksters so that they can reset and really have it all?

    Some just can’t f’in be happy or content.
