Just getting back on FR... I read that Congress authorized more $$$ for Ukraine, anyone know about this? President Trump would have had to sign it, I’m really surprised. Would like to know if true.

I did a bit of searching and found this:

Shift In Ukraine Support In Congress’s Proposed Pentagon Budget
The measure, if passed, would provide only a small fraction of what Ukraine received in direct military aid under the Biden administration.
The new National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) bill released by Congress Sunday night calls for maintaining funding of arms purchases for Ukraine, though at a rate drastically less than in the past, and support, albeit with caveats, to European allies. The legislation, which still must be approved separately by both the House and Senate, comes days after the White House released its National Security Strategy that distances America from support for Ukraine and Europe. It was also released as U.S President Donald Trump is seeking to end the war and Ukraine continues to lose ground to Russia.
I think it was the EU that did.

BREAKING: IMMINENT WAR IN EUROPE!
The EU aka NATO (minus the United States) desperately wants war with Russia.
@DNIGabbard can speak for herself and does in her typically courageous way (read below).
First, our CIA is in cahoots with MI6 and others in the EU IC community. These and other warmongers in our own administration as well as the Congress want perpetual f’ing war. I’m personally sick of it. It’s been over ten (10) years now! Keep in mind we were in AFG and Iraq for twenty years and it cost us trillions along with a massive loss of prestige.
THIS SH!T HAS TO STOP!
@realDonaldTrump
sir, you need to put your foot down on the situation in Eastern Europe and the total bs you’re being fed by Europe and parts of the USIC.
Russia is pulling resources from the FEMD (Far East Military District) and has been for some time now. Russian’s ambitions (and conventional capabilities) are the complete opposite of what is being presented in the media that is salivating for expanding the war. Russia has neither the A$$ nor the desire to go any further. If they did, it would be over by now.
We the People of the United States NO LONGER want this war. We don’t want to spend another penny on a tin pot dictator who arrests opposition voices to include in his own Rada (Congress) and the media.
[Rada is the Ukrainian legislative body]
