Gee….how about doing the right thing the last three months while thousands of Ukrainians have died because you refused to do this?

 

 

This is so weird... Good. But really weird. What change? Is he trying to appeal to a more moderate base now that he's got a taste of the crazy train?

Oh please.   Thousands of Ukrainians would have died with or without more aid and ammo.   Thousands will die in the future most likely after getting aid.

Happy five-year anniversary of the release of the Mueller report, and this ringing endorsement of Orange Man Bad's virtue:

 

"As set forth in our report, after that investigation, if we had confidence that the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said that. We did not, however, make a determination as to whether the President did commit a crime."

Oh please... you might want to do a little research on what has happened to their air defense since our assistance dried up and how they are bombing complete villages.  

Sorry to disappoint you about your party of Putin.

Also, without supplemental funding, Ukraine will not have adequate air defense interceptors to defend its cities, critical infrastructure, and forward line of troops against the continual barrage of Russian missiles, the official said. 

Russia has been bombing the crap out of cities and villages ever since.

Analysis: Russia is exploiting Ukraine's lack of air defences

Sky News military analyst Sean Bell says that yesterday's attack on Chernihiv shows Russia is exploiting Ukraine's lack of air defence weapons.

He said: "Last night was the latest wave of Russian attacks hitting the town of Chenihiv. Three missiles, 18 people killed, and 78 injured when an eight-storey residential building collapsed.

"Last week, President Zelenskyy highlighted the fact that there were a limited number of air defence missiles available.

"He talked about one Russian attack on a thermal power plant where 11 missiles were fired with only seven shot down because they ran out of air defence missiles, leaving four to get through.

"What is almost certainly happening here is that Russia are taking advantage of the shortage of weapons."

He added that the attack on Chernihiv was also interesting due to its proximity to Kyiv (about 90 miles) and the fact that it was previously taken by Russia when they attempted to lay siege to the Ukrainian capital.

Bell said this raised the question: is another assault in Kyiv is being considered by Moscow?

For 3 months, he has been playing a game of bait and switch with border security being tied to it....then he didn't want border security tied to it.  Then he didn't want a stand alone border security bill because Trump told him not to....bla bla bla....

 

He's been pressured by people like Trump, MTG and Gaetz to not pass Ukraine aid and he's been obviously listening to them.  Now....all of a sudden he's singing an different tune.

I Read that entire article word for word and I did not see anywhere that Johnson claimed the three amigos WERE NOT and axis of evil or good fit the US etc… So your article had nothing to do with my questioning your point on what changed when Johnson said those countries were an axis of evil.

Well, he obviously doesn't think they are evil enough to pass a bill helping a country they actively are attacking and destroying.....for over three months while he plays his bait and switch games.
