Josh Hawley’s U-Turn on Military Aid to Ukraine

On February 24, the one-year anniversary of Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, Senator Josh Hawley (R., Mo.) appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight to scold Republicans for voting for military aid to Ukraine.

“The truth is that Joe Biden, and, let’s face it, congressional Republicans, have spent over $100 billion and counting on the Ukraine war, and meanwhile the folks in East Palestine, Ohio, have poison in the water, poison in the air,” Hawley said. “I would just say to Republicans: You can either be the party of Ukraine and the globalists or you can be the party of East Palestine and the working people of this country.”
