More scrutiny needed of U.S. foreign aid, especially to Ukraine

Fact: Congress wants to borrow $25 billion from China, give that 25 billion to Ukraine and have the American taxpayer repay China. How is that in the best interest of the United States taxpayers?

There is no oversight of how the Ukrainian aid is being spent and no oversight of the war supplies being sent there to Ukraine. How is that fair to the US taxpayers?

Sam Bankman Fried (FTX ) was allegedly laundering money back to US politicians and is indicted for that but no audits or oversight being done by US Congress. Fact: all request for audits and oversight gets voted down. How is that in the best interest of the US taxpayers? Why would the US Congress not found oversight or audits of US money and military supplies unless they are benefiting from no audits and oversight of US resources.

The American taxpayers had better start demanding to know how and where their money and military supplies are going and who is benefiting from American foreign aid.
