To those Republicans who now want to pull support from the Ukrainian Fighters and their allies ....

.... I say I stand with these Ukrainian women. The republicans have sunk to the level of blaming inflation
on US support of the Ukrainians fighting for their freedom, land, and family. I think McCarthy is on the record
of saying after the Republicans win the mid terms he is going to pull funding from Ukraine and JD Vance is
on the record as saying that Zelenskyy should give up some land to Putin to stop WW III.

British PM Neville Chamberlain appeased Hitler regarding Czhechoslovakia in order to "sue for peace". The rest is history.

Republicans for Putin. They would rather Russia reformulate the Soviet Union than see Ukraine as a FREE country. DEPLORABLE!

2016 RNC Delegate: Trump Directed Change To Party Platform On Ukraine Support

President Trump may have been involved with a change to the Republican Party campaign platform last year that watered down support for U.S. assistance to Ukraine, according to new information from someone who was involved.

Diana Denman, a Republican delegate who supported arming U.S. allies in Ukraine, has told people that Trump aide J.D. Gordon said at the Republican Convention in 2016 that Trump directed him to support weakening that position in the official platform.


Ultimately, the softer position was adopted.

And remember Trump's 1st impeachment was about weakening the Ukraine in order to help Putin and to
blackmail Zelenskyy to make up dirt on the Bidens.
