Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said on the Senate floor he “looks forward” to hearing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s demands before Congress on Wednesday evening.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is scheduled to speak and claim the $45 billion worth of aid designated for Ukraine in the $1.7 trillion omnibus bill is not enough support. Congress is weighing whether to pass the massive spending bill in addition to the $66 billion lawmakers have already approved of taxpayers’ money for Ukraine.

Mitch McComical might as well put a big “D” after his name now that his true allegiance has come out.
Here's what McConnell actually said:
“I look forward to welcoming President Zelenskyy to the Capitol and to hearing from the Ukrainian people’s elected leader at a critical moment in their struggle for their safety and sovereignty against Russia’s unhinged aggression,” McConnell said.
Obviously never used the word "demands", which was added by whomever wrote that article just to piss people off, and of course it succeeded.
Zelensky has no power to "demand" anything from us. I'm sure he will ask us for certain support, and make the best case he can for why he believes it is in the US national interest to continue supporting Ukraine. I'm sure Ben Franklin made many similar requests to the French and Spanish during our Revolution. People are free to agree or disagree with what he's saying, and then it will be up to us to decide the extent to which we fulfill -or don't fulfill - those requests.
But the use of the word "demands" was just a transparent in attempt to shape a particular narrative.
Trump was right on about McConnell .
GOP is just as corrupt as the rats Im sick of them all
This.
“Russia’s Unhinged aggression”
This is Joe’s Vietnam. Wake up everyone before the nukes start flying.
$100k gift cards for his wife?
How much did Mitch, the Beotch, get thru FTX?
How much has he given back?
That will give ya an idea why this corrupt UniParty hack loves it.
Demands? Trump would have told him to FOAD
The only way this is worthwhile is get that money laundering prick over here — and tell Putin: “We got him! Go ahead and implement the Minsk agreement.”
Everything was settled until BeijingBiden told Zelynskyy to reneg on the agreement — and the war started.
I had the tv on, as always, when I walked and saw Biden and Velenski I almost puked.
Ooops Zelenski.
Are you OK man? Is this a moment of clarity or a head fake?
What is your problem?
What Mitch is looking forward too is how much Zelensky will kick back to him, if he helps champion the additional $66 billion through the Senate.
You guys always get this backwards. It is Putin's Vietnam.
I don't have a problem. You were one of the first to kneel before Zelensky. In fact you were one of the first to start tossing out putinpuffer. When I saw you say you wanted to puke after seeing the dynamic duo (Biden/ZMan) on your television I figured you may have fell and hit your head or something. The something being a moment of clarity. You know, a clear cogent thought. Maybe you figured out what a scam all of this is? The other something I left open to you was that you may just be head faking. You know what head fake is, right?
Every country leader knows why Putin entered Ukraine...and so does Zelensky as he continued to stall and refused to comply with Minsk.
I read his posts. He is a Charter Member of the Worship Lying Joe Biden Church. And also one of the preachers.
