President Biden blasted Congressional Republicans for holding support for Ukraine hostage and jeopardizing nationwide safety.
Biden stated on the White Home:
I’d like to talk to you at this time about an pressing duty that Congress has to uphold the nationwide safety wants of the USA and fairly frankly, of our companions as nicely. This can’t wait. Congress must cross supplemental funding for Ukraine earlier than they break for the vacation. Frankly. I feel it’s gorgeous that we’ve gotten up to now within the first place. Properly, Congress Republicans in Congress had been keen to provide Putin the best reward he might hope for and abandon our international management, not simply Ukraine, however past that. We’ve all seen the brutality that Putin has inflicted on Ukraine, invading one other nation, making an attempt to subjugate his neighbors to his iron rule, committing atrocities, atrocities towards Ukrainian civilians making an attempt to plunge them into the chilly and darkness of winter by bombing their electrical grid. In order that they don’t have any warmth throughout the winter or electrical energy for that matter.
Kidnapping 1000’s of Ukraine, 1000’s of Ukrainian Kids from their dad and mom and households and preserving them in Russia. Russian forces are committing warfare crimes. It’s so simple as that. It’s gorgeous who is ready to stroll away from holding Putin accountable for this habits. Who amongst us is actually ready to try this. You recognize, for the higher a part of two years, the courageous folks of Ukraine have denied Russia a victory on the battlefield. They’ve defeated Vladimir Putin’s ambition to dominate Ukraine and the folks of the USA can and will take satisfaction. They need to take satisfaction and we’ve enabled Ukraine’s success. Due to the regular provide of weapons and ammunition, we offered them along with our companions and our allies. I simply did a gathering with the G7, which was one of many points we mentioned. All of the European leaders. We’re ready to stick with us, stick with Ukraine and our European pals are as nicely who in the USA are ready to stroll away from that. I let you know, I’m not ready to stroll away and I don’t suppose the American persons are both. If Putin takes Ukraine, he gained’t cease there.

Republicans are serving to Putin by making an attempt to carry Ukraine support hostage for what’s a failed border coverage. The border invoice that Home and Senate Republicans try to extort from Democratic members of Congress and the President displays Trump’s border insurance policies that had been an enormous failure throughout his presidency.
President Biden is appropriate. Republicans are serving to Putin and jeopardizing America by blocking Ukraine support. Putin is not going to be appeased. He is not going to cease at Ukraine. The Russian authoritarian will assault a NATO nation, after which the congressional Republican hostage taking will probably be accountable for getting American troops probably concerned in a warfare with Russia.
