Our elected leaders are prepared to put our country into more debt over the interests of a foreign one.
On Tuesday, RINO and Senate Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell announced that lawmakers came to an agreement on a $14 BILLION aid package for Ukraine.
Democrats meanwhile have stalled passage of the bill in order to cram it full of their own far-left agenda.
McConnell slammed democrats for stalling, and then said he wants to pass the bill ASAP:
“It needs to be passed, and it needs to be passed quickly.”
Some conservatives are rightfully critical of the enormous bill, which they say doesn’t have the interests of the American people in mind.
Senate Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday that lawmakers will consider $14 billion in aid to Ukraine as part of sweeping omnibus legislation that would also fund the federal government and address the COVID-19 pandemic.https://t.co/X5fYQXqOKt

Here are more details from Newsmax:
Senate Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday that lawmakers will consider $14 billion in aid to Ukraine as part of sweeping omnibus legislation that would also fund the federal government and address the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It’s been like pulling teeth to get out of House Democrats what the Ukrainians obviously need at this particular time,” McConnell said.

Democrats have delayed passage of the bipartisan bill:
Dems could pass aid to Ukraine with overwhelming bipartisan support.
Instead, they’re delaying aid so they can package it with their far-left Omnibus bill.

Many conservatives have called out the hypocrisy of a bill that would send $14 billion to Ukraine, while ignoring America’s interests:
Republicans negotiated an omnibus bill that sends $14 billion to Zelensky, grows HHS's budget by 12%, and hands out another $10.6 billion in ADDITIONAL funding for the poison shots. Nothing on mandates, border, or energy. They hate you. Vote independent.

$14 Billion to protect the border of Ukraine
But Republican refused to pass $4B for Trump’s wall to protect the border of America because it was “too expensive”
Call your GOP rep now and ask why they care more about Ukrainians than you and your childrenpic.twitter.com/7fTD9AA8vu

McConnell was on the floor today explaining what he fought for in the budget. Ending the mandates? Boosting energy? Ending the border invasion? Nope – more spending for Ukraine than even Biden asked for!

This $14 billion should be spent on Americans if it is to be spent. A giant red flag: “it must be done quickly” means it’s an awful bill and it should never pass. Good bills can be discussed. Bad bills “must pass quickly” https://t.co/OJSVFO667D
