Sen. Josh Hawley (Mo.) tweeted Monday he was against the bill because it did not serve “American interests.”
“It neglects priorities at home (the border), allows Europe to freeload, short changes critical interests abroad and comes w/ no meaningful oversight,” Hawley said.
Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.) emphasized in his statement that although he supports Ukraine’s efforts against Russia, he can’t support a spending bill this large with issues including “inflation” and “gas prices” in the U.S.
“I can’t support $40 billion of new spending unless it’s offset with cuts or taken from already authorized funds, especially when the European Union isn’t matching what we’re doing to end this conflict in their own backyard,” Braun said.
Eight other GOP senators voted against the package: Marsha Blackburn (Tenn.)
John Boozman (Ark.)
Mike Crapo (Idaho)
Bill Hagerty (Tenn.)
Mike Lee (Utah)
Cynthia Lummis (Wyo.)
Roger Marshall (Kan.)
Tommy Tuberville (Ala.).

McConnell was on Fox interview. the turtle is nauseously Swampish -so a little goes a long way
He reacted to Josh Hawley's Tweet -
McConnell dismissed it as "isolationist" and "beating Russia is the best thing to do to stop China"against the bill because it did not serve “American interests.”
“It neglects priorities at home (the border), allows Europe to freeload, short changes critical interests abroad and comes w/ no meaningful oversight,” Hawley said.
( reacting to the Biden Asian trip)
That's it. no reasoning-just get the bad guys- and if you dont you are "isolationist"
sick fvcks

fighting Russia in Ukraine has no bearing on Russia and and Chinese combined
military in air and sea
China can build up Russian tanks/armor if needed -but the real use of Russia to China is hypersonics and SAM arrays, and short range & ballistic missiles. Russian missiles are best in the world
Russian land military was never going to be much help to Russia except for a contested land wear in Asia-
which aint happening after Afghanistan.
Russian armor cant possible touch any NATO state before or after the invasion
You react like McConnell; without applying any weapons systems thought other then sloganeering
The Chinese see the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a testing ground for their planned invasion of Taiwan, and it is not going as planned. Russia does not have control over the Ukrainian air, and does not have control over Ukrainian waters. For China to invade Taiwan, they would need absolute control over air and sea.
Why would they want to? Why would they need to? Could they really? Chinese tanks are not particularly great, and Russia's bigger problem is losing tank crews. The whole purpose of Chinese tanks has been to compete with Russian tanks. If they have better tanks than we know, they would not want to give them to their most obvious tank opponent.
No, they really do not. Their guidance systems are third rate at best.
All your claimed "expertise" does not change the fact Russia is not winning.

what type of guidance for what missile? Their hypersonic in Ukraine is unmatched by any NATO weaponAll your claimed "expertise" does not change the fact Russia is not winning.
It's accurate and evades ABM system .
Also we can only launch hypersonics by an aircraft lift platform
Russian hypersonics can be launched by ship, submarine, aircraft, and land-based mobile launchers.

the USA will maybe catch up, and this is in development -but Russian missiles including SAM
are the best in the world.
That'sthe real military advantage given to China by their "enduring friendship"
The exception is the USA's Wireless TOW (Javelin)
I dont claim any expertise but i know how to and do the research. link this FYI

The first successful test was of a Northrop Grumman design that took place last Fall, while the second, more recent test leveraged a Lockheed Martin scramjet. This is an important point, as it seems to suggest that the United States now has at least two functional scramjet designs for weapons applications. Although the US is regularly seen as behind in the modern hypersonic arms race, this announcement may suggest that the US now leads the way in the race to field scramjet-powered hypersonic cruise missiles.

scramjet (supersonic-combustion ramjet) is a ramjet engine in which the airflow through the engine remains supersonic, or greater than the speed of sound. Scramjet powered vehicles are envisioned to operate at speeds up to at least Mach 15.Se
Hypersonic missiles are still experimental. Maybe one day, they will be something. What makes you think they are doing great right now? Have they led to any great victories for the Russians?
Meanwhile, the Ukrainians have knocked out several Russian capital ships, using anti-ship missiles, and denied Ukrainian air space to Russian planes using anti-aircraft missiles. Using drones and missiles, they have devastated Russian tanks. I can point to actual successes, not just feeling good about Russian missiles.
The simple fact is that Russia is not impressing anyone right now.

It's not just hypersonics, but they are being used longrange like to hit Lviv and Odesa and munitions
Russian missiles are their most effective airstrikes because their jets can get taken down by American SAM

just think.....if Biden hadn't left $80B in military supplies in Afghanistan he could have just shipped it to Ukraine........

A lot of that were buildings, run ways, and other things that cannot be moved to Ukraine. It would be like trying to move Fort Bliss to Ukraine. Others of it was given to the Afghans by the previous president, so would require a lot of fighting to try to take back. It may have cost more to get it back than it was worth.
