Either Mike Rogers doesn’t know what his committee’s bill actually does, or worse, he’s just lying to the American people. The NDAA *does* authorize $300 MILLION of your tax dollars to fuel Ukraine’s war. It’s in the text, but they tried to hide it. My amendment will strip that... show more

I think we oughta be doing an audit before we give them any more money. That’s what the American people been asking for.

Marjorie and Trump are the only good Republicans left… #TRUMP2024🇺🇸

.@RepMTG Putin couldn't have said it better. It's you who doesn't know what the bill does. As for The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and the $300 million allocated for Ukraine your assertion that either Mike Rogers doesn’t know what his committee’s bill does, or worse, that he’s lying to the American people, is both unfounded and inflammatory. As Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, Representative Rogers is fully aware of the bill's contents, which undergo extensive review and debate before finalization. Accusing a senior member of Congress of ignorance or deceit without evidence undermines the integrity of our legislative process. You claim that the NDAA authorizes $300 million to "fuel Ukraine’s war." This is a lie. The funding supports Ukraine in its defense against Russian aggression, providing critical munitions, material support, and logistical aid. This assistance is crucial for maintaining Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity and aligns with U.S. national security interests. Furthermore, your statement that the funding was hidden in the text is simply not true. The allocation for Ukraine is explicitly mentioned in the NDAA and has been publicly discussed in congressional debates and media reports. The NDAA is a public document, and its contents are accessible to anyone interested in reviewing them. Lastly, your amendment to strip the $300 million in funding for Ukraine was proposed but overwhelmingly rejected by the House of Representatives, with a vote of 89 in favor and 341 against. This demonstrates strong bipartisan support for continuing assistance to Ukraine and standing up to the Putin's caucus in the House. Characterizing the conflict as "another endless war" ignores the reality of Ukraine's defensive struggle against an unprovoked invasion by Russia. U.S. support for Ukraine is aimed at promoting peace and stability, not perpetuating conflict. Shall we dig deeper into your past statements? Anyone 👆 who doesn't vote to fund Ukraine is doing great💯 harm to our national security and, in effect, doing Putin a favor. Assisting Ukraine with only 5% of our defense budget is not only about saving their nation but also about destroying our greatest adversary's army, which is a no-brainer. Only Putin would want us to stop aiding Ukraine. Let’s cut through the noise: 1. US Aid to Ukraine🇺🇦: Hey, let’s get one thing straight. Our aid to Ukraine isn’t just a charitable donation; it's a countermeasure against the ever-looming Russian threat🇷🇺. It’s about stamping out autocracy and having Europe's back. 2. Beyond Ukraine: Did you know we’re also supporting Moldova with a cool $300 million, to help them break free from Russia’s energy stranglehold? Yep, it's not just about Ukraine; it's about regional stability. 3. Budget Talk: To the critics who scoff at our aid to Ukraine, here’s some math. Our defense budget for 2023? 5% of our entire military defense fund going to Ukraine isn’t derailing our defense game. It's called strategy, folks. We are helping them defend their nation while they are destroying the Russians army by holding them to a draw. 4. A Walk Down Memory Lane: Remember 1994? When Ukraine did the unimaginable? They handed over 2000+ nuclear-armed ICBMs, choosing peace over power. The “Budapest Memorandum of 1994” wasn’t just a pact; it was a monumental leap of faith. 5. Standing Tall: It’s our turn, patriots🇺🇸. Ukraine went out on a limb for global peace. We can’t, and won’t, turn our backs now. We made a pledge. Promises aren’t just words; they're our bond. So, to all naysayers, here’s a thought: let's honor commitments, not belittle them. After all, it’s about our word as a nation, not just politics. Now as to your support for Putin: 👇 The Russian investigation was far from a hoax His personal attorney, Attorney General Barr, saved Trump. In 2014, Trump's golden boy, Eric Trump, boldly stated their financial independence from US banks, instead relying on Russian support. Just the tip of the iceberg. Junior canoodling with a Russian agent to mine dirt on Clinton while Trump publicly beseeches Russian help to uncover her elusive emails? No surprise, Russia backed them with a robust misinformation crusade. Consider this, his campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, was caught blatantly sharing election intel with a Russian agent, which necessitated a pardon. Can you imagine the extent of manipulation? And let's talk about the deceit. The Russian investigation led to 199 criminal charges, 37 indictments, and 5 prison sentences. Even your Trump's National Security Advisor was caught secretly promising to lessen sanctions. Yet, nothing tops your his deferential display at the Helsinki summit. The world looked on as he blatantly disregarded our intelligence in favor of Putin. A secretive meeting with Putin, attended only by a translator? Sounds suspicious. His brazen confession to the Russian ambassador about firing the FBI Director to ease the pressure of the Russian investigation? Astounding. When Russia assaulted our energy sector, his response was radio silence. Absolute non-action. Wake up and smell the corruption, folks. This is a textbook case. November election can't come soon enough. STOP helping Putin. #ukrainewar #UkraineRussianWar #ukrainecounteroffensive

They hide money in every single thing they draft, then make it so long to read in hopes it’s gets missed.

You told President Trump you would be nice a little while ago. I'm glad you are back to your old self. They hide it and then lie about the fact the 300 will go to Ukraine. Glad you brought that to their attention.

It’s very concerning we should elect people who actually read bills Before deciding on them

All of that money going to Ukraine. My son is in the marines basic school and has had to buy all his uniforms, his sword and has to pay for all his meals. Let’s take care of our on.

Ukraine is a looting medium for American politicians. That's why the war won't end.

I wish to God someone could track down where some of the prior money has gone… This will help our argument.
