Biden uses Russian propaganda to shame Republicans for questioning more Ukraine aid: 'That's a Russian speaking'

President Joe Biden is using Russian propaganda to shame Republicans for not backing down and sending $61 billion more in taxpayer money to Ukraine.

At a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Biden parroted Russian state TV news anchors who have allegedly celebrated Republicans not authorizing the money no questions asked.

"It's stunning that we've gotten to this point. You know, we need to fully appreciate — fully appreciate — how this is being viewed around the world and being used by Russia," Biden said.

"Russian loyalists in Moscow celebrated when Republicans voted to block Ukraine's aid last week," he continued. "The host of a Kremlin-run show literally said, 'Well done, Republicans That's good for us.' Let me say that again: The host of a Kremlin-run show said 'Well done, Republicans. That's good for us.' That's a Russian speaking. If you're being celebrated by Russian propagandists, it might be time to rethink what you're doing."

The inverse, of course, is also true: If you're using Russian propagandists to shame your own countrymen, perhaps it's time to rethink what you're doing.

Biden went on to declare that "history will judge harshly those who turn their back on freedom's cause," suggesting Republicans have done just that. But it's not clear how Republicans have turned their back on freedom.

It also remains to be seen how Biden will be judged for prioritizing Ukraine over domestic issues that directly impact Americans, like the border crisis.

Biden, Zelenskyy, and Democrats frame Ukraine funding as an existential problem that, if left ignored, will inaugurate the second coming of the Soviet Union. It's total fearmongering, of course, but Biden's crusade against Republicans ignores the reasons why Republicans are skeptical of sending more money to Ukraine.

Not only have U.S. taxpayers already sent $111 billion to Ukraine — only for Ukraine to end up in a stalemate — but Biden is refusing to give Americans a clear strategy for a Ukrainian victory, which is more important than ever as American support for Ukraine wanes.

The lack of clearly defined strategy allows Biden to dodge accountability. Clearly, throwing money at the problem hasn't worked thus far. Why should Americans believe that more of their hard-earned dollars will make a difference now? That Biden will not answer the question without fearmongering is telling.
