It is completely unfathomable to me that while Russia continues its brutal war against Ukraine, this Administration is choosing to buy Russian diesel and send billions of American dollars into Putin’s economy. Make no mistake, this is a lifeline for Russia’s war machine.

nytimes.comTrump Gives Putin a Hand in Russia’s Economic War With UkrainePresident Trump is moving to buy Russian diesel while also pressuring Ukraine to halt attacks on refineries, a lifeblood of Moscow’s war machine.

The NYTimes’ estimates around $4 billion of American money could flow into Russia’s economy. And what does Ukraine get in return? Nothing. On top of that, Russia continues to target Ukrainian civilians while Trump touts a ceasefire that apparently doesn’t actually exist.

Russia has inflicted extraordinary pain and suffering on the Ukrainian people. Now, instead of squeezing Putin’s ability to keep waging this war, the United States is preparing to hand him billions with no strings attached. How does that make any sense?

It makes sense because President Epstein works for Putin. He’s a Russian puppet. He doesn’t care about America, its citizens, or interests, only himself. Worse Congressional Republicans rubber stamp everything. They are the problem. Vote them all out. House & Senate. All of them. No exceptions.

Congressman, thank you for highlighting the illogical nature of the situation. It makes no sense absent treachery and/or undue foreign influence on the current US administration.
