GOP critics vow NO MORE U.S. aid for Ukraine
The Hill ^ | 04/25/24 6:00 AM ET | BY ALEXANDER BOLTON AND AL WEAVER

Conservative skeptics of funding the war in Ukraine predict the bill signed into law this week will be the last major U.S. aid package for Kyiv that passes.

The GOP critics of the package acknowledge that Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) won this round of the debate by pushing $61 billion for Ukraine through Congress.

But they argue that if President Biden comes back with another request, he’ll go away empty-handed.

“If Ukraine thinks that it’s getting another $60 billion supplemental out of the United States Congress, there’s no way,” said Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), who led the opposition among Senate Republicans to pouring tens of billions of more dollars into the war effort.

National security adviser Jake Sullivan said Wednesday the new military aid package for Ukraine will last through the end of the year, raising the prospect that a new infusion of weapons and funding may be needed quickly in 2025.

That could make Ukraine’s war with Russia, and U.S. support for Kyiv, a major issue in the presidential race between Biden and former President Trump and in the battles for the House and Senate.

The presidential and House races are both considered toss-ups, while Republicans are widely seen as favorites to win the Senate majority, given a highly favorable map.

“So much of what happens next depends on the outcome of the November election,” said Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.).

Sullivan said Wednesday there’s a “deep reservoir” of support for Ukraine in both parties

It is a charade.

Democrats have colluded with Russian communists for decades.

Ted Kennedy wrote a letter to the Soviet leader asking for help to defeat Reagan.

Obama told “Vlad” he would have more flexibility over Russian matters after his re-election.

Hillary “reset” relations with Russia.

These people are working WITH Putin, not against him.

Biden’s “toughest sanctions ever” allow Russia to have a higher GDP growth rate than the US.

Don’t fall for it.
