In Huge Reversal, GOP Poised To Kill The Border-Ukraine Package It Demanded
huffpost.com
Republican Sen. James Lankford, who spent months negotiating the border provisions the GOP demanded, said he may vote against his own bill this week.
Senate Republicans on Monday signaled their plan to filibuster bipartisan legislation that paired tougher border policy with more U.S. aid to Ukraine, a stunning reversal less than 24 hours after the legislation had been unveiled.
With ex-president Donald Trump urging them to kill it, and many on the right up in arms about the proposal, top Senate Republicans emerged from a heated closed-door meeting and said they needed more time to review the agreement, suggesting that a scheduled Wednesday vote to advance the bill is all but doomed to fail.

I just don't get it. Growing up in the 80s and 90s if you had anything even mentioning against Russia it would pass with flying colors. Now it seems that just doesn't exist anymore.
That's because 80s/90s Russia was Woke Sinister Communists Who Hate Us while neighboring insurgents were Based Chad Freedom Fighters.
The 2020s Russia is Based Chad White Nationalists while the Ukrainians are Woke Gay Antifa Terrorists.
The conservative media narrative has entirely inverted.
Oh man, I wonder why ₽epublicans would do such a thing?
