Full title:
Zelensky and His Generals Embezzled ‘At Least’ $400M from U.S. Aid Last Year, According to Intel.



he Ukrainian authorities in Kiev have embezzled “$400 million last year, at least,” of U.S. taxpayers money, according to veteran American journalist, Seymour Hersh, who recently grabbed headlines for his long-read article describing how it was the government of the United States that blew up the Nord Stream pipeline.

Now, a new Substack by Hersh reveals explosive details of how U.S., UK, and European tax payer cash is being used to line the pockets of Ukranian politicians, including President Zelensky and his allies.

The money, according to Hersh and his sources, has been used to buy luxury cars and fund ostentatious lifestyles. Allegedly, the director of America’s Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), William Burns, went so far as to present Zelensky personally with a list of “thirty-five generals and senior officials whose corruption was known to the CIA and others in the American government.”


When you back one of the most corrupt nations on Earth, one would expect this sort of fallout. That corruption has been no secret and those who may not have known have been cautioned. However, here we have Sy Hersh with another bombshell of a story that goes into how Ukraine and the US are buying cheaper Russian oil amidst the sanctions to fund their war....with Russia.

Link

According to Rasmussen Reports at the end of March this year, 50 percent of Americans believe the war has made America’s national security situation worse – up from 42% last September.”


Imagine that, it's political, just like everything else.

Direct Seymour Hersh substack.

Well to be fair, most was probably sent back to Russia in lead form.

But, lets not forget that we also funded the Zelensky gov'ts pensions and salaries.....

My thought exactly but it likely goes to a lot of members of congress too.

Remember when Ukraine was sending campaign donations to the democrats? Ukraine didn't have any money to send.

So the US taxpayers are paying Ukraine, to turn around and pay US Democrats and republicans. Clown world.

FTX, the defunct cryptocurrency exchange, has now recovered a total of $7.3 billion of its customer’s funds and could restart its operations as soon as next year, according to the company’s lawyers.

FTX has seen the recovery of more than $800 million in cash and crypto assets since January 2023, Reuters reported.

Well, who could have even suspected that? Except some "tinfoil hats" of course, who still can remember that there was a time before 2019/2020.

And the "at least $400M" probably describes only the tip of the iceberg.

Play stupid games like knowingly and against the will of the majority of the people pumping flows of money into a fascistic and corrupt barrel without a bottom, win stupid prices. But unfortunately we, the people, are forced to win the stupid prices for those corrupt criminals who threw around our, the peoples tax money. In EUrope, in the UK, in the USA. The epicenter of Great Reset and Green New Deal, the epicenter of the targeted NWO.

Just a reminder of how reliable Reuters is.

“Fact Check-No evidence Ukrainian President Zelenskiy is a billionaire”

Link

Then the 3rd paragraph down

“Reuters has not independently verified Zelenskiy’s wealth.”

Thank goodness we can rely on them really digging into things for us, and giving us factual information. What a joke.

Agreed, I don't trust Reuters, or any other MSM, legacy media publication.


I do however give Mr. Hersh strong credence and that is the underlying source.

Zelensky and His Generals Embezzled ‘At Least’ $400M from U.S. Aid Last Year

Imagine that, no one could have seen that coming from the beginning.

Now, how much of that money circled back around and ended up in our so-called representatives pockets.

It's funny how my left leaning contacts suddenly discount Pulitzer Prize winning Hersh, bc he is going against the narrative. IE real journalism.
Sickening and saddening really.
