Hey, @mollyjongfast.bsky.social This has *got * to be Mr. Wilson's doing. Great stuff, using Q (and Qish) buzzwords to go after the orange low-life this way... purely by photographic association, with no words so it neatly evades FEC oversight. Bravo!

Analysis | The GOP’s march away from Ukraine has halted
Many Republicans remain skeptical of funding for Ukraine. But the party's move away from support largely ceased earlier this year, with indications that some support might even have been restored.

Why? Per the BBC, "...he believed they sent too welcoming a message."
