In a tense game of chicken, remarkable for its mix of petulance and audacity, congressional Republicans are threatening to halt U.S. aid to Ukraine—guaranteeing a Russian breakthrough and possible victory in that war—unless Democrats help pass a bill that all but locks down America’s Southern border.
If the impasse isn’t resolved by the end of next week, when Congress goes on recess until the new year, the Ukrainian army could run out of ammunition. President Joe Biden could resupply the arsenal from U.S. stockpiles without legislative approval, but the move would be temporary, and the signal sent—that Ukraine, and by implication other allies, can no longer count on U.S. support in a pinch—could be a holiday cork-popper for Russian President Vladimir Putin and all of our other adversaries.

Thanks for the constructive criticism. It won’t be dismissed. It’s sometimes difficult to temper a response after another user calls you “ dickcheese.” I’ll try do better.
You triggered, Captain Dick Cheese? What are you gonna do about it? Shoot up a school?
He posted a spicy worthless hot-take on an irrelevant corner of the internet! take that, libcucks!
Did you just imply that you’re irrelevant? Lol. Why are you even commenting if my “takes” are worthless? By taking the time to address my “take,” you validate them, thus cucking yourself. The choice to ignore me is always available.
