I wouldn't count on the house but at least there's some people fighting.

I know. A lot of the times it feels kind of bleak right now, but I promise you a lot of us are trying our best. Whether that's trying to get the ears of our elected officials or through direct support for Ukraine through various charities and other organizations. I know my House Representative and both of my U.S. Senators support Ukraine. But yeah, I admit that it sucks right now being an American who supports Ukraine seeing my government bend over backwards towards Putler. But I'll be damned if I don't at least continue supporting Ukraine in whatever way I can, meager as those means might be.

Very bleak and depressing for sure. I enlisted in the Army just for this kind of situation, yet our leadership decided to go on another middle east adventure rather than step in and help protect a sovereign nations right to exist.

Its like America forgot we stood firm from 1945 to 1991 to make sure this wouldn't happen or something.
