“The grim toll comes as a reminder that President Vladimir Putin of Russia enters the new year with the same old objective: to crush Ukraine’s sovereignty along with the country’s hopes to become a democracy affiliated closely with the European Union and, eventually, NATO.”
“Through the terms he understands best — violence — Mr. Putin is expressing his confidence that he has weathered Ukrainian military resistance and Western economic sanctions, and his belief that Western attention and resolve are bound to waver.”
“Russia’s onslaught included cruise missiles that it has been hoarding in apparent preparation for just such a renewed air offensive.”
“While Ukraine was able to shoot down 114 of the 158 drones and missiles fired on Friday, all the S-300 and hypersonic missiles got through.”
“The best answer to Mr. Putin’s latest destructive salvo is for Congress and the White House to buckle down and strike a compromise that will allow aid to Ukraine and Israel, and a package for the southern border.”
Wake up, Congress!! Do freedom right and arm Ukraine finally to total victory!
It’s time for Putler to lose, and lose bigger than he ever imagined.
Key takeaway from the Washington Post Editorial Board:
“The best answer to Mr. Putin’s latest destructive salvo is for Congress and the White House to buckle down and strike a compromise that will allow aid to Ukraine and Israel, and a package for the southern border.”
IT’S ABOUT FUCKIN TIME!
Give Ukraine all of the tools so they can finish the job of winning for freedom everywhere!
Wake up, Congress!!
Do freedom right! Arm Ukraine to total victory!
It’s time for Putler to lose, and lose bigger than he ever imagined.
Trumpublicans are such a shame!
