Mitch McConell says the quiet part out loud.

Exact full quote from CNN:

“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

what do you expect will happen if you stop funding Ukraine defense against war crimes? You think Russians just go home?

The Russian Ukrainians will be able to stay in their homes without fear of genocide by the NATO backed government.
