Staff Reports
Well, well, well, it seems like the Biden Administration just can’t get anything right! Not only are they sending millions of dollars worth of weapons to Ukraine, but now we find out that these weapons are ending up in the hands of criminal gangs. I mean, seriously, can’t the Biden team do anything without messing it up?
Criminal Gangs Are Taking U.S. Shipments of Weapons Meant for Ukraine

According to a report from the U.S. Defense Department’s inspector general, there is a shocking lack of accountability when it comes to maintaining the equipment sent to Ukraine. It’s like they’re just throwing these weapons out into the wild and hoping for the best. But surprise, surprise, criminal gangs are getting their grubby little hands on them instead.

The report details how a group of Ukrainian criminals posed as humanitarian aid workers to obtain a stash of U.S.-provided bulletproof vests. Instead of helping the Ukrainian forces, these criminals decided to sell the vests for their own profit. And get this, one of the group members was found with vests worth a whopping $17,000! That’s a lot of money that could have been better spent elsewhere, like on securing our own borders.
But wait, there’s more! The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) had to step in and disrupt another group of arms traffickers who were selling weapons and ammunition stolen from the front lines. These criminals were taking advantage of the chaos and using it to line their own pockets. It’s almost as if the Biden Administration’s incompetence is creating a breeding ground for criminal activity.
Now, you might be thinking, what is the solution to this mess? Well, thank goodness for the GOP-controlled House of Representatives. They have passed a version of the National Defense Authorization Act that calls for a special inspector general to oversee spending in Ukraine. Finally, someone who will hold the Biden Administration accountable and prevent them from throwing our hard-earned tax dollars down the drain.
But of course, the Biden Administration is opposing this act because they just don’t want anyone poking around in their mess. It’s clear that they are more concerned with saving face than with actually addressing the issue at hand. But fear not, my fellow conservatives, because the Republicans are vowing to put a stop to all this nonsense. No more millions of dollars wasted on Ukraine. It’s time to focus on what really matters, like taking care of our own country.
So, let this serve as a reminder of the incompetence and lack of accountability that we can expect from the Biden Administration. They are not fit to handle our national security or foreign policy. It’s time for a change, and it’s up to us to make it happen.
