WASHINGTON (AP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will address U.S. military officers at the National Defense University on Monday as part of a last-minute push to convince Congress to provide more money for weapons before funding runs out.
President Joe Biden has asked Congress for $61.4 billion for wartime funding for Ukraine as part of a $110 billion package that also includes money for Israel and other national security priorities. But the request is caught up in a debate over U.S. immigration policy and border security. The U.S. has already provided Ukraine $111 billion for its fight against Russia’s 2022 invasion.
On Tuesday, Zelenskyy is expected to go to Capitol Hill and to meet with Biden at the White House.

Why is a foreign politician speaking to our military?
Close the borders.
I’m sick of this little creep!
We’re broke!
Next year our deficit will be $51 trillion thanks to Biden-Obama and the Democrats and the RINOs. And, too, we’ll have tax increases amounting to almost $4 trillion.
Zelenskyy— “I will flying home in 6 hours. I will get my money or I expose the whole mess.— and what do you know.”
Probably because Biden doesn’t really want to talk to or be seen with him directly (neither would Congress, really)....so the captive military is the next best thing.
The only logical explanation is massive fraud and corruption.
The Ukraine has lost the conflict and we are now in the end game of the Biden engineered NATO proxy war against Russia.
Our feckless political and military leaders are panicking because their lies and malfeasance are about to be exposed by a military and economic collapse of the Ukraine. .
Will he have his platform dancing shoes on? 🕺
Did he iron his olive-drab Castro-wear?
The $110 billion package of your tax dollars includes a-n-o-t-h-e-r $65 billion for Ukraine, money for Israel, and $14 billion for Biden’s immigration policy and border security.......NOT to stop illegals but to facilitate their entry into our communities.
The U.S. has already provided Ukraine w/ $111 billion tax dollars to pay its bills......it is not known how much reaches its fight against Russia.....what with the corruptness prevalent in Ukraine.
Zeepers
Is he going to show up in his power sweat suit again? 🙄
Yep! Son of a B!
How many bags of cash did he bring?
Is there a prize for the cutest snark posted by...say...3:00 PM?
He's begging for money, yet he can't save American taxpayer money by doing these meetings via zoom?
the reason we pulled out of afganistan so fast was because they knew this was scheduled and they could not fund war on 2 fronts.
(But it was all totally the fault of that Trump guy)
Pathetic
Chad, can you give us the Neocon take on this?
