Who won America's Biggest Mega Millions jackpot? Check your tickets. Plenty of others won money, too... The U.S. has spent $100 billion on the Ukraine war effort.
Tuesday's record $1.602 billion Mega Millions jackpot drawing produced one winning ticket from Neptune Beach, Florida, that matched all six numbers in the Aug. 8 drawing: 13, 19, 20, 32 and 33 plus the gold Mega Ball 14.
But there were other winners in the big game, too.
According to Mega Millions, Tuesday’s drawing had 7,056,452 other winning tickets at various prize levels. But that fails in comparison to what Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has won for his failed counter offensive against Russia.
While some U.S. officials are frustrated at the pace of Ukraine’s counteroffensive, which has gained less than 100 square miles of territory. I plan to ask Congress for at least $25 billion in supplemental spending for defense and disaster relief — funding that would sidestep recently enacted budget caps and set up a potential clash with Republicans over more aid for the war in Ukraine.
The supplemental request will include $12 billion for disaster relief and $13 billion for defense, with roughly $10 billion of that for Ukraine, according to multiple reports.
Congress approved $45 billion in extra funding for Ukraine last December, an aid package that was meant to last until the fiscal year ends on Sept. 30.
