He a leader in the Congressional PUT UKRAINE FIRST CAUCUS. He certainly has no interest in putting America first.

Product placement. Nobody does it for free.

Texas should rename itself to “Ukraine” and get some of that border protection.

At the very least, Kentucky should rename. Then Mitch McConnell (R-Ukraine) would be truth in advertising.

I’m surprised the the Zeepers aren’t here supporting RINO Mitch, Biden, CIA and the Military Industrial Complex.

Are they just going to ignore this, or am I just too early?

"Are they just going to ignore this, or am I just too early?"

Probably a little of both.

If McCarthy cannot focus on the US and defend and promote our interests, which do not include Ukraine, then he should resign!

I’m not a fan of McConnell’s, but I hate this sort of sniper attack. There is no Put Ukraine First caucus. It’s simply the Congressional Ukraine Caucus. I believe it’s absurd to suggest that wearing a Ukrainian-flag-colored tie means he’s not looking out for America, but I do hope that he’s truly looking out for what’s good for Ukraine (peace, even if it’s at the 2014-2020 borders) rather than what’s harmful to Russia (revanchism over Crimea, etc.)

Its not just a tie:

Mitch McConnell: Aiding Ukraine ‘Number One Priority’ for Republicans amid Inflation, Border Crisis

His words, not mine.
Said after he, along with 17 other republicans in the Senate, passed a 1.7 trillion omnibus bill hobbling the power of the purse for the incoming House for most of 2023, an incoming House that vowed 'no more blank checks for Ukraine'. The omnibus also gave almost 10 billion more of money we don't have beyond what Biden was asking for.

The only thing missing off off Mitch's tie was a "With love, Vladimir" signature.

...”A naive person has less wisdom of the world. His knowledge of the world in general and of the people is limited. He believes that people are good at heart and says what they think. He does not realize that people can have hidden agendas. His view of things is very simple and can be compared to that of a child.”

Jus’ sayin’ ..........
