Понятно, почему хуйло вдруг стал таким "миролюбивым":
— А дальше осенью 2024 года нас ждет серьезная развилка. Или действительно военные действия закончатся либо будут заморожены — и тогда можно будет сократить расходы в 2025–2026 годах, как и запланировано, либо придется повышать налоги.

FORT WASHINGTON, Md.—Billions in potential American aid to Ukraine is stuck in monthslong limbo on Capitol Hill , and to the Trump-loving partisans attending this year's Conservative Political Action Conference, that's exactly as it should be.

Many attendees argued that Putin was provoked by NATO's push to add Ukraine to the alliance. "Mitch McConnell is not a real Republican. He needs to go. He's too old, he's compromised, he does not represent the ideology of most Republicans," said Pat O'Brien of Fairfax, Va., a 67-year-old retiree. "The war is the fault of the U.S. We have no business encouraging Ukraine to join NATO. That's what triggered this whole thing."

In recent weeks, Trump has declined to condemn Russian President Vladimir Putin for the Feb. 16 death of Alexei Navalny, instead comparing his own multifarious legal issues to the plight of the imprisoned opposition leader. He has said he wouldn't defend NATO countries that don't meet their financial commitments to the alliance but would instead encourage Russia "to do whatever the hell they want." In a CNN town hall in May, he refused to say which side he hoped would win the war.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) has said the chamber won't take up the Senate bill, which he acknowledges would likely pass if put on the House floor because most Democrats and many Republicans support it. But opposition from Trump and a growing share of the grassroots GOP base has made the issue toxic and divisive within the party. House Democrats are working to force the bill to the floor through a rarely used procedural gambit called a discharge petition, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.

A group called Republicans for Ukraine this week launched a six-figure digital ad campaign in the districts of 10 House Republicans it hopes would support such an effort. A 60-second ad features rank and file GOP voters who argue that not doing so puts American national security at risk. The group's executive director, the anti-Trump GOP consultant Sarah Longwell, said the ad aims to show that not all the party's voters are in Trump's camp on the issue.

"Trump's always been in love with Putin, but now a big chunk of the Republican Party is as well," Longwell lamented in an interview. "If you grew up with the Cold War as a backdrop, to watch what's happening to the Republican Party right now is absolutely staggering. Ronald Reagan would be spinning in his grave."
