Hello Everybody,
Mad Vlad must be smiling wide as right-wing Republicans in US
Congress drop assistance to Ukraine -

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden said Sunday that American aid
to Ukraine will keep flowing for now as he sought to reassure allies
of continued U.S. financial support for the war effort. But time is
running out, the president said in a warning to Congress.
“We cannot under any circumstances allow American for Ukraine to be interrupted," Biden said in remarks from the Roosevelt Room after
Congress averted a government shutdown by passing a short-term funding
package late Saturday that dropped assistance for Ukraine in the battle
against Russia.
"We have time, not much time, and there’s an overwhelming sense of urgency,” he said, noting that the funding bill lasts only until mid November. Biden urged Congress to negotiate an aid package as soon as
possible.
“The vast majority of both parties — Democrats and Republicans, Senate
and House — support helping Ukraine and the brutal aggression that is
being thrust upon them by Russia,” Biden said. "Stop playing games,
get this done.’’
