This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

Sen. Warnock: 'We gotta have a handful of Republicans who understand that they work for the people of America and not for someone who wants to be a king.

The Commander in Chief is politicizing the deaths of not only 67 lives, but three Servicemembers.

His hatred for those who serve knows no bounds. His disdain for women knows no limits. His empathy for those left behind is nonexistent.

Absolutely DISGRACEFUL.

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week.
