The Trump administration is slow-walking $250 million in military assistance to Ukraine, annoying lawmakers and advocates who argue the funding is critical to keeping Russia at bay.

President Donald Trump asked his national security team to review the funding program, known as the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, in order to ensure the money is being used in the best interest of the United States, a senior administration official told POLITICO on Wednesday.
But the delays come amid questions over Trump’s approach to Russia, after a weekend in which the president repeatedly seemed to downplay Moscow’s military intervention in Ukraine and pushed for Russia to be reinstated into the Group of Seven, an annual gathering of the world’s largest advanced economies. The review is also occurring amid a broader internal debate over whether to try and halt or cut billions of dollars in foreign aid.

United States military aid to Ukraine has long been seen as a litmus test for how strongly the American government is pushing back against Moscow.

Trump is withholding vital military aid to Ukraine, while his personal lawyer seeks help from the Ukraine government to investigate his political opponent.

It doesn’t take a stable genius to see the magnitude of this conflict.

I see you believe everything lawrence o’donnell says....after getting panned by everyone for running with an unverified story, o’donnell went on the air last night and retracted that story, saying he never should have run with it.

pete, whet else are they lying about? it’s a fair question. has o’donnell lost any credibility in your view?

they are completely detanged.

Just waiting for discovery in the lawsuit The Citrus Caligula threatened him with.
All Trump has to do is show the things he won’t disclose and that puts all the rumors to rest.
Kinda like a birth certificate.

Here is the Russian State TV reaction to the Anti American Russian tool at work.

“Russian efforts either to recruit somebody as an asset or effectively coerce them into becoming an asset historically typically rely on compromise of either a financial nature or a sexual nature,” said David Kris, a former assistant attorney general in charge of the Justice Department’s National Security Division. “Or some other nature by which they can gain leverage. Either induce somebody voluntarily to cooperate or blackmail them.” Kris added that “there is long history of that kind of activity, including in the context of presidential elections,” going back to Soviet efforts to offer money to Hubert Humphrey in the 1968 election.

Great Propaganda Job by the Citrus Caligula, payment for his funding?

He's playing you for a fool, Enjoy!

so according to pete, anyone who says anything complimentary about russia, must be suspected of being a russian mole. you say this, even after o’donnell retracted his story.

when romney said russia was a threat and obama mocked him for it, were you equally suspicious that obama was a russian agent?

when o’donnell says trump got loans thanks to russia, you gleefully posted it, saying trump was influenced by russia.

o’donnell retracted his story, said he never should have run with it. that doesn’t deter you one bit.

welcome to tds.

O'donnell didn't retract the story because it wasn't true, he retracted it because he didn't adhere to journalistic standards and Trump was threatening to sue NBC.

The idea that Russia has kept the Trump org afloat is no crazy secret, even Jr has admitted as much.

So you didn't complain about Obama's executive actions? How many did Obama have compared to Bush and now Trump?

Should we point out all your hypocrisy on this site w/Trump?

i’d love for you to point out my hypocrisy with trump!!

for the record, i didn’t have an issue with obama’s executive orders. i had many issues, not with when he chose to issue executive orders.

is that a direct enough answer?

go ahead, tell us all about what a hypocrite i am. please be specific.

i’m kind of opposed to all rape, i don’t qualify it depending on the victim. apparently you do, at least when there’s a political reason to do so.

the wall will reduce rapes. if that’s not a good enough reason to build
it, it will also reduce the number of people coming here, who we don’t track. I see that as an improvement. Do you?

Where is the wall? It does not exist. As president, Donald Trump has replaced a couple hundred miles of existing fencing. That’s it.

NOT ONE SINGLE MILE of new wall has been built.

He rejected Paul Ryan’s plan to get the wall funded and built.

He rejected the Dems plan in which Trump gives Democrats a path to citizenship for 1.8 million Dreamers; Democrats give Trump his full $25 billion wall funding request.

Trump had chances to get the wall built and he chose NO.

Nobody knew politics could be so complicated.

Certainly not someone with no political experience, that's none, zero, not one (adjective of your choice) bit.

Trump will end up on this list of presidents, Buchanan, Pierce, Wilson, G. W. Bush and Fillmore and I think the grifter has a good chance to take the bottom spot.

Since we are quoting useless statistics

Total times Obama played golf during his eight year Presidency:306

Total times Trump tweeted about how bad it is that Obama's golfing 24

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Can you believe that,with all of the problems and difficulties facing the U.S., President Obama spent the day playing golf.Worse than Carter
8:03 PM · Oct 13, 2014·Twitter for Android

Trump's golf to date and he has the rest of this term to beat Obama.
Days at Trump properties 289
Golf outings, all but one at Trump properties 227
Cost to date for golf alone: $109,000,000 and remember, that doesn't count taking his royal family to meet the Queen.
And while Obama played at service base courses 226 times, to date Trump has not played at a base course once.
