    This is great, I hope it will help a lot to Ukraine to make them Russian soldiers to run back to their country.

  2. Can’t believe we need to wait for this long with such a big margin of majority. Still better late than never, now is the time to get to full speed and take back what Ukraine lost in the last few months. Justice will prevail, democracy will prevail no matter how hard evils try to dismantle them.

    Fighting for half a year, to then pass with a majority vote.

    What a waste of time, this should have been passed back in October.

    Well deserved aid. Look at everything they’ve done with little. The more help we give, the faster they get the invaders out of their country.

    Literally best news all year. I’m so damn happy right now!

    Now let’s send that aid ASAP

    It’s for the best we can’t let dictators like Putin divide and conquer, it sends a bad message across the world to those who want to do the same.

  7. About time. But how many Ukrainian lives have been lost due to Republican political games?

    Love it! Let’s get those boys some guns (and missiles and and and)..

    Fuck Putin.

  9. Someone told trump that russia is not our friend, and he finally let his little bitches in congress help out our friends.

    I hope all you people who were duped into supporting them are asking why the story suddenly changed.

  10. 3:1 vote.

    Ridiculous that this was blocked because a politician wanted to keep his job. This version of democracy kind of sucks.

    Could someone clarify, does this have to pass in the senate as well or only house approval is required for foreign aid?

    Look closely at everyone who voted against this bill.

    Those are the compromised members.

    I bet you those weapons are already at the border. Let’s get back to pushing those Russians back to Moscow!

  14. Oh… I’m betting there is someone on the house floor getting ready to take a list of people to sent to the Ukrainian army. I’ll bet she is mad that threat did not work

  15. I aint religious, but thank fucking god….. Things were starting to look bleak for a while on all fronts, now with basically 120 bn from both US and EU over the next few years, I hope Ukraine will be able to gear itself up for what it needs and make Moscow rethink its imperialism.

  16. Idiots. Republicans could have had everything they wanted on the border if they had passed it months ago.

    MTG was pissed, and said she will not push forJohnson ouster, dumb bitch was bluffing.

    Government just giving away all our 155mm shells while kids go hungry? Do you know how many American families could be fed with those 155mm shells. I don’t. Also there are homeless veterans and maybe they could have lived in the shells. I don’t know. I’m just asking questions. The point is that Moscow has the best bread.

  19. I think it’s important to keep in mind that the US isn’t writing a check. They’re sending supplies we already have. It’s a bit of a grisly way to go about it, but we will need more Americans to work in the factories that produce these supplies. We, basically, just created more jobs as we will need to restock what we send.

    Glass half full view, I suppose. I hope that the needless loss of life in Ukraine ends soon. Putin’s mad obsession has led to butchery.

  20. People need to realize even though our soldiers aren’t being killed this is just as much our war too as well as the western world, because if we don’t deal with Russia now we will have to eventually and they will be stronger the longer this goes on because of how wartime economy works, might as well help take care of it now while were not losing lives

  21. Now the dems can support Johnson, against potato head.

    Support people who do the right thing.

  22. The GOP finally realized Americans weren’t really buying their whole “Putin is a good guy and this is NATOs fault” messaging huh?
