Total sent to Ukraine since February, 2022:
$150,000,000,000.00
Population of the US:
330,000,000
Population of the 17th CD of New York:
775,000
OUR SHARE OF UKRAINE SPENDING THUS FAR:
$352,272,727.27
Number of Ukrainians killed:
Between 120,000 (per US) and 400,000 (ind.)
Land area seized by Ukraine from Russia:
NONE
The obvious purpose of this war that you have been hired to prosecute - by interests from outside our district - is not to "liberate" Ukraine" or help the Ukrainian people. It is to weaken Russia so it can be looted by the people who hired you.
Thus, every death that has occurred since this began during your term is blood on your hands.
Certainly, after the obvious failure of all this blood and money to change the status of Ukraine's former Donbass region (except to destroy it over a 9 year campaign of bombing and terror), every death that follows from here is clearly blood on your hands, and at a cost thus far to the people of this district of more than THREE HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS.
How many evictions could you have prevented among the people of the 17th?
How much food could have been bought and delivered?
How many roads fixed?
How many schools repaired? Etc.
Enough already! Cut the damned strings and start to represent us.
Or make plans for your return to the private sector.
