Russia / Ukraine - Topic

Let me correct you again, lol

I've said dozens of times that Ukraine is still standing because of massive Western aid and everyone here knows that's true

NATO's expansion agenda means Ukraine is getting wrecked, it's undeniable.

Between Slovak elections and this. Two big L's for the neocons.

Quote

Congress on Saturday blocked new aid for Ukraine in its government spending deal, a rebuke to Kyiv with geopolitical reverberations that came despite a concerted lobbying push from senior Biden officials and the highest-ranking GOP senator.

Although the White House said Ukraine needed $20.6 billion in aid to fight Russia’s invasion, Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) stripped all funds for the U.S. ally from the government spending bill, under immense pressure from a GOP caucus that has increasingly turned against Biden’s handling of the war. The Senate had advanced a bipartisan bill to send roughly $6 billion to Ukraine, but Democrats wary of being blamed for a government shutdown approved the House version with only hours to go before federal appropriations expired.

The rejection of the money — nine days after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky flew to Washington and pleaded with lawmakers to maintain their support — reflects hardening GOP opposition to helping Ukraine, and will send immediate shock waves through European capitals and the government in Kyiv.

McCarthy is facing immense pressure from the Freedom Caucus. They probably threaten to get rid of his speaker post.

Not sure they have the power to do that but they could have stopped this temporary funding bill, so he caved.

The pro-war lobby really tried to sneak a cool 20 billion in Ukraine funding in a temporary funding bill. Just shows how captured our politicians are.
