The Russian-Ukraine War has seen instances where militias and terrorists have operated with Russian government support, committing war crimes. As a result, Representative Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) has introduced a bipartisan bill to designate Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism. Last April, Human Rights Watch detailed war crimes committed by Russian troops occupying Ukraine, including rape, looting, […]
Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, countries including the United States and western Europe made efforts – and paid the price – enacting sanctions on the Russian government and their oil industry, which, in turn, hiked up gas and oil prices for Americans to unfathomable levels. At one point, gas prices were over five dollars […]
The collision of an American MQ-9 drone and a Russian fighter jet has sparked concerns about an escalation between the United States and Russia as we continue aiding Ukraine. Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) expresses this troubling sentiment in a recent statement, saying this is precisely why the U.S. must seek to end the conflict and […]
In a viral video making the rounds on Twitter, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said if his country loses, Russia will push further west, and the United States will need to put boots on the ground. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) responded to the video with a tweet of her own, saying, "Zelensky’s comments have gone […]
With the war in Ukraine officially eclipsing the one-year anniversary, Republicans continue to hold President Biden's funding of Ukraine under scrutiny. Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) reiterates in a recent appearance on Real America's Voice that "We've given over $100B to Ukraine. But we have NO ACCOUNTING of how the money has been spent. What has […]
Since the accusations of Russian collusion were levied against former President Donald Trump (R), some have tried to link other Republicans to the former superpower as sympathizers or even supporters of the nation and their president Vladimir Putin. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) was recently included in that mix. Moreover, with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, […]
The soon-to-be Republican majority in the House of Representatives is on the warpath. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has introduced a bill demanding an audit of the funds sent to aid Ukraine in its ongoing conflict with Russia. In a press conference introducing the bill, Rep. Greene introduced Congressman-elect Cory Mills (R-FL-7), who has extensive […]
In a recent Op-Ed with the Washington Times, Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) has a standard for the United States to renew and to continue to uphold: the idea of “never again.” America has dedicated itself to teaching young students about the horrors of the Second World War and all that it produced, especially the Holocaust. […]
In what appears to be an effort of “reciprocity,” Russian leader Vladimir Putin and the Russian government have officially sanctioned President Joe Biden (D) and other high-ranking U.S. officials. Perhaps this is in direct response to the United States sanctioning Putin and Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov in late February. Russian Foreign Ministry Lavrov said […]
By Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart Buying blood oil from Russia, Iran, and Venezuela is reckless, irresponsible, and outright dangerous for U.S. national security. The Biden Administration must not appease ruthless dictators hoping that the next one might be slightly less reprehensible than the other. I am deeply alarmed by reports that high-level U.S. representatives met in […]
