>Russia resumed its cruise missile attack on Kyiv after an 80-day hiatus early Friday morning, an action that critics say is the direct result of Republicans blocking a foreign aid package to help Ukraine.
Shouldn’t Democrats be supporting this? This is their stance with Hamas. Cut off Israel so that hamas can continue rocket barrages on Israel
“Republicans Blocking Aid to Ukraine celebrate Russian Missile Barrage”
Sigh… I want Ukraine to win. Really and truly. But this is getting stupid. We pushed them into doing a thing we’d never do ourselves; an assault against a fortified line with inferior numbers and no air cover. The results were predictable, and the most amazing thing is all the so-called military experts who seemed shocked that Russia spent last winter preparing instead of swilling vodka and holding circle-jerks. To judge by their public statements, they fully expected the Russian line to just collapse the moment the first Leopard tank rolled forward. I’m NOT a military expert, and even I called it better than they did.
Bottom line: unless NATO intervenes or Russia collapses internally, Ukraine will never retake the Donbas. It’s time to re-align policy to reflect that reality.
The incessant Chinese, Russian, North Korean, and Iranian social media disinformation campaign has worked yet again on the GOP and their MAGA faithful. Blocking aid to Ukraine slows Europe’s ability to retool its military defense industry leaving us years behind the Chinese in missile and artillery stockpiles, while also denying Ukraine the tools needed to win or stalemate the war with Russia.
It won’t be funny the minute Taiwan is attacked and we are kept at arms length from defending our friends because of lack of foresight and effective missile systems!
At what point do Republicans just start admitting that they are on Putin’s side and want to help him as much as possible?
Wonder what America would be like if Congress sided with the Nazis and voted to stay out of that war.
Republicans hate America. They are traitors.
That’s unsurprising since both Russians and Republicans hate America.
Europe needs to step up aid or get ready to fight the Soviets alone.
Republicans are pro Russia
Any legal experts out there? At what point can we move to dissolve the GOP? It’s not even conservatism at this point(I used to be one of them). They’re no longer our fellow Americans that just happens to be on the other political aisle. The GOP is actively working towards the destruction of America from within. How has this not triggered a state of emergency? Legitimate question.
Russublicans are an embarrassment and why anyone would line up to vote for them is beyond me.
This is exactly how we continue to make people hate us. Isn’t that exactly what happened with Osama Bin Laden? We helped him and armed him in his battle with Russia in Afghanistan then pulled support and left him high and dry. Fast forward 15 years and he’s attacking us. Political tides change and we walk away leaving people who were dependent on us in the lurch. And unfortunately it’s happened enough our enemies know that all they need to do is outlast our fleeting attention, and we’ll walk away like we always do.
Why is it up to America to subsidize a non-NATO European nation?
Don’t get me wrong, the military aid to Ukraine is an absolute steal when it comes to weakening Russia. Bad political move to not do it.
But the comments here are absolutely unhinged. Republicans are traitors because we don’t continue giving billions to a country that isn’t obligated to it?? How about you righteous Biden voters go on over there and volunteer for the Ukrainian military.
Make the EU pay for this support. THEY LIVE RIGHT NEXT IT.
Why does AMERICA have to financially support this? Fk off. We got thousands of homeless and struggling Americans who need this financial support more.
Germany you pay for it. France You pay for it.
It’s a good return on investment to weaken Russia in their own backyard. Likely a ton of military and political intelligence coming out of there as well that will benefit the US.
The US is the largest single contributor but other EU countries are catching up. It’s not like we’re the only one.
I can kind of see the argument of not throwing more money at it and spending it on our own needs, but the GOP keeps voting against spending bills that help Americans. They really can’t be considered serious people if they constantly undermine their own positions.
So next year could be. Putin wins the war by Spring because Republicans cut off funding. Trump stands trial on national TV for trying to take the Presidency by force on Jan 6th. He is proven guilty and gets, let’s say, put on house arrest. Meanwhile Republicans are going to the polls and confirming that they want a potential felon to be President. In summer, Republicans officially nominate a convicted felon for President. The Supreme Court confirms that he can run, losing all their credibility as an institution and freeing him from house arrest. The stock market crashes because America looks like it could turn fascist. The right wing convinces voters that the market crash is because of Biden policies. Trump wins in November, Putin stands in a fully conquered Ukraine waiting for Trump to come in and pull out of NATO so he can invade the rest of Europe.
Yeah, no, I’m good. I’m gonna sit this year out. I’ll vote blue down the line in November, but I can’t deal with this shit.
Republicans providing aid and comfort to Americas enemies.
Nothing makes Russia happier than Republicans supporting the Kremlin’s agenda. They really should spend some time studying Russian State media. China is watching. Iran is watching. North Korea is watching. In this war not only does Ukraine’s existence hang in the balance, so to does the very idea of democracy. For it to survive Putin must be defeated.
>”I am for Trump. I was always for Trump. He is the destroyer. If he gets elected, everything we said about civil war will be on their agenda, in reality!”
>”Trump can really get it to the point where our geopolitical adversary will fall apart….. It could totally destroy that nation – without any missiles!”

Another great accomplishment by the MAGA congress. Putin is slowly but surely getting what he wants .
Obama didn’t do much for Ukrainian during his 8 years in office. If anyone could have slowed up the attack from Russia Obama could have when Russia first started attacking the counties in and around Ukrainian.
