This seems to be the reason why Zelenskiy decided to (was advised to) cancel his appearance.

@LeaderMcConnell (R-KY) on Ukraine supplemental funding: “I’m advocating and I hope all of our members vote no on the motion to proceed to the shell to make the point — hopefully, for the final time — that we insist on meaningful changes to the border.”

Rs in Congress won’t support assistance for Ukraine unless Ds support “draconian” actions at border, Biden says at fundraiser. “I don’t think they want to solve it,” Biden says of immigration. “I think they want to keep it as a problem without the tools to make it any better.”

Speaker Johnson reiterates the House’s demand that the Senate pass HR2, the bill so toxic that it didn’t even got 100% GOP support (and got 0% Dem support). HR2 is such a non-starter that Johnson’s statement is arguably saying that Ukraine funding will not happen, period.

Mike Johnson is a paid servant of Russian interests. Just follow the money.
As a Canadian Ukrainian this makes me physically sick.
Who are we as a country anymore? We forsake sending minimal aid to a nation forced to bear the brunt of an expansion dictator?
