President Joe Biden is asking Congress to provide more than $37 billion in emergency aid to Ukraine, despite Republican warnings there won't be a 'blank check' for Kyiv when they are in the majority.
The administration's funding request, which comes as lawmakers begin their post-election session, also seeks $9.25 billion in COVID-19 funding to prepare for a possible winter surge and help combat the virus nationwide.

At all cost cry baby!
Nobody told them FTX is down at the moment.
Republicans have taken the House. If this $37 billion isn’t passed by new congress it won’t get passed. Biden has no plan with Ukraine and Russia to negotiate. Now he will be forced too.
I hope.
yep gotta spread the wealth
Republicans have convinced themselves that DeSantis's electoral margins just cleansed the party of Trump's taint and will definitely vote for this bill.

The Ukraine trolls here certainly do seem to be outnumbered these days by actual americans concerned with our own interests. Gives me the warm fuzzies.
The truth is hard to find these days. its even harder when you have idiot ideologies who cannot make a coherent presentation of thier thoughts. Mr Skoda tank works comes to mind. That guy is getting screwed by supporting the very people he hates... go figure. with that kind of warped world view what can you do?
