Be sure to not have throwable things around you if you haven’t heard about this before. Especially the amount of money that was being reported missing right before 9-11-2000, and suddenly was never brought up again.

Kirby said administration officials “has for many months now been interested in improving accountability over the end use of material that is provided to Ukraine.”
