Republican Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s speech before Congress a “photo op” Thursday.

“I didn’t go to the speech, because I didn’t want to be part of a photo op asking for more money from the United States government when they have not given us a single piece of accounting on anything they spent,” Hawley said.

But of course it was, and all the left can get outraged about is the affronts by the taliban against women.

The question everyone is asking:

Will his name have 3 ‘Y’s by the end of the year?

Or 4?

We know one thing which Ukraine spent American taxpayer gifts on. Ukraine bought FTX crypto-bucks. Bankman-Fried contributed the proceeds to leftist congressional election campaigns.
