Funding both sides of war

“Funding both sides of war,” Monterey Herald – April 12, 2022

How asinine! Biden is funding both sides of the war and we are talking about billions of dollars. Russia, with $200 billion over the last year in oil and gas purchases, including the European carve-out for Russia’s fossil fuel purchase. And of course our “help” to Ukraine. Only an idiot would fund both sides of this conflict, which is essentially a civilian slaughter. Time to wake up! This is not about political parties, this is about … well I’m at a loss for reasonable words here! But we need leaders who represent more than one party, who are fiscally responsible, some intelligence would be nice, and who would actually represent we the people! This is crazy stuff.
