This absolute traitorous scumbag.
Specifically, Karine Jean-Pierre refused to say that the White House would allow aid to Florida and Hawaii to be “decoupled” from a bill to send more billions to Ukraine. In other words, they have to all pass together, or all fail together.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre refused to say whether the administration will decouple hurricane relief funds to Florida from Ukraine aid during a Wednesday briefing.“[Republican Florida] Sen. Rubio, whose state is recovering from [Hurricane] Idalia, says the $16 billion in additional disaster relief should be decoupled from the additional funding [sic] for Ukraine. Of course, that’s part of their request which seems to be opposed by many Republicans. Is the administration willing to separate these requests and seek the FEMA disaster aid independently to ensure it gets to the hurricane victims [and] Hawaii wildfire victims as quickly as possible or do you see that these things have to be grouped together for the request?” a reporter asked Jean-Pierre.
“We are not going to get into hypotheticals here about decoupling anything at this time,” Jean-Pierre said. “What we believe is that these are vital, important government programs that need to be funded, that Congress should act on, that has been done in a bipartisan way, and so that is what we are going to continue to do.”
…”Look, we see them both as incredibly important,” Jean-Pierre said. “I just laid out at the top what we saw happen in Ukraine. 16 civilians died.”
There are still 400 people missing in Hawaii, but yeah, let’s focus on the 16 Ukrainians.
…”It is important,” Jean-Pierre continued. “It is important to help a country continue to fight for their democracy. And so we believe as the United States, the president believes as a leader that this is part of our job, part of our duty to make sure that Ukraine continues to fight again for sovereignty, for their democracy.”
Absolute monsters.
Blackmail/Extortion is a Felony Biden should be in Prison for Life over this the same with all those involved
This is how we continue to go broke. Necessary and important spending always gets some bloated boondoggle that politicians intend to steal from attacked to it so that no one dares to oppose it. Democrats politicize and bastardize everything.
Ukraine = The Kickback Kingdom
Like I said, he’s a f**king a$$hole
FLA is red so joe doesn’t want to help it at all.
Hawaii is deep blue so joe isn’t worried that its voters will go anywhere else.
Ukraine is joe’s conduit for his crime family’s slush fund of taxpayers’ money into his family’s bank accounts.
If Congress forgets that they are a CO-EQUAL branch of gov’t and not a dictator’s rubber stamp, he will get his way.
UKRAINE IS RUNNING OUT OF MEN AS HOPE OF VICTORY FADES
