President Joe Biden, in a call Saturday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, directly tied Ukraine’s withdrawal from the key town of Avdiivka to Congress’ inability to pass further aid for the country’s effort to fend off Russia’s invasion.
“This morning, Ukraine’s military was forced to withdraw from Avdiivka after Ukrainian soldiers had to ration ammunition due to dwindling supplies as a result of congressional inaction, resulting in Russia’s first notable gains in months. President Biden emphasized the need for Congress to urgently pass the national security supplemental funding bill to resupply Ukrainian forces,” according to a White House readout of the call.
The call bookended a week defined by US attempts to reassert leadership on the world stage. It also highlighted renewed urgency to pass additional funds for Ukraine amid the withdrawal from Avdiivka, a key town that in recent months became one of the most fiercely contested battles on the eastern front, and the news of Kremlin critic Alexey Navalny’s death.
Trump is still a useful idiot to Putin, and here’s the evidence. How do his fans not see what’s going on here? It’s been obvious since well before the original election.
Intentionally robbing the school systems in GOP-dominated states of all critical thinking and reducing the necessity of teaching historical events that were the fault of conservative governments in the past.
Because Trump’s genius is in selling himself to morons so they aren’t smart enough to see it.
They don’t care. They just wanna win. It’s like a sporting event. Doesn’t matter how the team plays all long as they win and your team loses. Being a loser is the worst possible outcome in the US for the current crop of Trump supporters. They had to buy “don’t blame us we voted for Trump” flags last election just to let you know they abdicate all responsibility because their team lost.
