Biggs says “No more blank checks to Ukraine.”
During a press conference on Wednesday with Presidents Biden and Zelenskyy, Joe reaffirmed America’s commitment to Ukraine —but not all Conservatives are on board with continuing to send piles of cash to the embattled country.
According to a report from Fox News, Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), who is challenging Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) for Speaker of the House, says America can’t afford to continue to write blank checks to Ukraine.
Biggs believes that money could be better spent at home; he’s been hitting Biden & Co. hard on Twitter.

Zelensky says $45 billion in aid from the U.S. is not enough.

Sending tens of billions of funding to Ukraine is NOT the “number one priority” for the United States right now.

But Biggs isn’t the only prominent conservative voice blasting the Biden Admin’s neverending aid to Ukraine.

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., tweeted, “Why is Ukraine funding buried in the bill that averts a shutdown of our own government? Why was previous Ukraine funding linked to hurricane disaster relief for Florida? Why is Zelensky speaking to Congress tonight? Because Americans are growing very weary of funding this war.”

“It’s absurd how our elected officials repeatedly subordinate our interests and the safety of our people to foreign leaders like Zelensky, who has been very clear his goal is to get America’s sons and daughters to fight and die in the war in Ukraine – nuclear Armageddon be damned,” Dan Caldwell, vice president of foreign policy for the group Stand Together, tweeted.
