re: #134 Belafon

I’m not seeing a whole lot of waning enthusiasm for supporting Ukraine. There might be less TV images, but with Sweden and Norway trying to join NATO, and the funding we’re sending, the West is staying pretty engaged. And part of that is because a number of countries think now is the time for Russia, Putin in particular, to lose its military power as it’s currently constructed.

There has been increasing opposition in the America First wing of the GOP. If the GOP wins control of Congress in the midterms, next year they will cut off Ukrainian aid by demanding dollar for dollar cuts in domestic spending to pay for it. So we need to get as much aid to Ukraine as we can ASAP so they can defeat Russia this year.
