State Dept's Victoria Nuland Tries to Sell Americans on the Upside to Funding Wars

Victoria Nuland, the U.S. Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, had an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour, and during the discussion, Nuland tried to explain the upside for America to support sending an endless amount of money and military hardware to Ukraine.

Nuland pretty much came out and said the quiet part out loud (video via Grabien News' Tom Elliott):

Or secure our border which has been being invaded ever since Biden took office.

This sounds a lot like money laundering for the military industrial complex 🤔 https://t.co/67ZE9fYkks

WAR as a jobs creator is morally repugnant. https://t.co/Oii3cnuIDz

Chuck didn't consider staying in Ukraine, which is unfortunate.
