I keep hearing from MSM that Rs are divided over support for Russia

Which R congress people are supporting Russia over Ukraine? I get my 2 R senator's and one 1 R representative's
(Kansas) news letters via email, so far all 3 have been quiet about the war.

So who are these Rs MSM keeps talking about? I'm thinking it's more hyperbole for ratings.

Let us all know if you are aware of one.

Republican pols don't want to distract their voters right in the middle of a very mature Let's Go Brandon chant. That means they can't take Biden's side, and they don't want to take Putin's side, so they waffle and dance around the subject.

Get ready for a distraction.

Or maybe they'll rally around IQ4.5's statement that this war is about "his" stolen election.

at all the ignorant, deplorable, vile, cowardice, uncaring, etc..... people (mostly Republican) here in the United States who refuse to understand what is happening in Ukraine (and here) because of their actions/non-actions...

I'm saddened as well and cry for the good people of Ukraine

...they are in bed with this monster. They own Putin (or should I say he owns them.)

They are quiet because they know the rank and file and the evangelicals worship this fucker. He is saving us from

"the deep state"
"the takeover of the left"
"the feminazis"
"the gays"
"the nigg,,,I mean coloreds "
"the pedophile dems"
"the heathens"
"the jews"
"anyone else we currently want to marginalize, shame, degrade, target, delegitimize, or otherwise erase because they don't believe in a vengeful guy in the clouds waiting to kill us if we don't worship HIM."

They will bide their time, slither out from under their rock, and rinse and repeat with a new motherfucker once this guy has finished his usefulness.
