House Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Michael McCaul (R-TX) tried to say that House Democrats who have unanimously supported aid to Ukraine didn’t and was immediately corrected on Face The Nation.
Video:
McCaul said, “We have factions on the left and right that do not support Ukraine.”
Face The Nation’s Margaret Brennan stopped him and said, “This is a Republican bill.”
McCaul’s only response was to say, “right,” and then try to move on.
The truth is that Democrats have unanimously supported aid to Ukraine.
McCaul’s lie was triggered by at least ten House Republicans introducing a bill called the Ukraine Fatigue Resolution, which would cut off aid to Ukraine. There are no Democratic bills calling for aid to be cut off to Ukraine. There was an old letter from the House Progressive Caucus that was accidentally released and withdrawn that called for more diplomacy, but House Democrats have consistently supported Ukraine.
