Speaker McCarthy rejects Zelensky invitation to visit Ukraine: ‘No blank checks’

JTN:

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has rejected an invitation from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to visit Ukraine.

The California Republican told CNN he felt no need to visit the war-ravaged country to formulate his position on funding the Kyiv regime amid the war effort.

“I will continue to get my briefings and others, but I don’t have to go to Ukraine or Kyiv to see it. And my point has always been, I won’t provide a blank check for anything,” he said. “Let’s be very clear about what I said: no blank checks, OK? So, from that perspective, I don’t have to go to Ukraine to understand where there’s a blank check or not.”

The then-minority leader vowed during the 2022 midterms that a Republican-led Congress would not write a “blank check” to the country amid criticism of the Biden administration’s open-handed approach to providing the nation with aid against Russia. more

  2. The feel-good story of the day is that Mitch McConnell is hospitalized after a fall down some steps last night.
    The rat-bastard was wearing his fucking Ukraine colored tie yesterday when he blasted Tucker for… *checks notes* being transparent.

    You can’t damage a sack of monkey shit by throwing it down the stairs!
    This can’t be factual.
