President Biden on Thursday said he’s concerned about the fate of aid for Ukraine if Republicans win control of Congress after House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) signaled the party would not provide a “blank check” for Ukrainians.
“I am worried about it because they said they would cut it,” Biden told reporters during a stop in Pittsburgh. McCarthy told Punchbowl News earlier this week that House Republicans will not write “a blank check” to Ukraine if they take control of the lower chamber next year.
“I think people are gonna be sitting in a recession and they’re not going to write a blank check to Ukraine. They just won’t do it,” McCarthy, who is likely to become Speaker if Republicans win the House, said Tuesday.

You mean Congress might stop signing blank checks with no accountability?
That would really be a shame
We have given far too much money and equipment already for a conflict that isn’t our business. The fact we are in a recession just makes it worse.
What? No more 10% for the Big Guy?!
Never underestimate the GOP’s ability to snatch defeat in the face of certain victory.
Thanks McCarthy for giving the Democrats a talking poing. Only 1/3 of Republicans think aid to Ukraine is too much. But you had to give comfort to Russia and threaten to scale back support.
Biden can KMA.
Straw meet grasp.
10% of nothing is still nothing, right Joe?
Is there any hope of a successful challenge to McCarthy, assuming the GOP takes the House? I just get no sign of life from this guy.
Stop the unaccountable funding that is likely being funneled to the WEF to fund their Global Reset plans (that Russia is resisting BTW).
Joe worrying about his family’s money laundering venue. Probably his deal with China and Iran’s money laundering schemes too.
I always hope.
Given that Trump has denounced McCarthy in the past, you would think someone would rise to challenge him.
We’ll see.
You can thank that idiot McCarthy for giving the rats the “The Republicans are going to abandon The Ukraine” narrative 3 weeks before the election.
Big guy side deals in jeopardy.
Worried about Ukraine money but not a thought flows across his addled brain about the American people.
Big Guy has no worries. It’s a lie. Go back and watch how fast the Republicans ran to the microphone to brag about all the spending they approved for Ukraine. Every single SOB had a turn.
LOL! Once the hush money stops to Zellie, lugout!!
Accountability.
He should be more worried about staying out of prison. /s
Yeah... it might stop his "money laundering" scheme that's already lined the pockets of Biden and several other crooked politicians.
