“We have issued the last package that we had withdrawn and for which we had funding,” John Kirby said. White House National Security Council strategic communications coordinator John Kirby said at a briefing Thursday that “the assistance we were providing has come to a halt.”

The White House official also said it is very important that Congress continues to approve the allocation of money to Ukraine. He stressed that Kiev needs help more urgently during the winter period.

    I love how we can’t get anything done about our borders from the Democrats, yet, when THEY ask for more funds for Ukraine, the Republicans are just supposed to say “sure!”

      Border states are turning down billions in federal aid to try and make Democrats look bad. I guess they’re convincing some dumber people.

        Spoken like a true Democrat. Sincerely, someone who lives near the border.

      My guy, the border is a boogeyman issue republicans push to win elections and try to make democrats look bad. For all the bloviating they do, republicans don’t do anything about the border either.
