2023-11-23 21:59:01 Ukraine Can't Survive Beyond February - Sen. Chris Murphy

US Democrats are running out of ideas and hope over how to push through enough financial support to prop up Kiev, and fear Ukraine may not be able to hold out much longer, according to a report by Politico.

Current stopgap funding bills run out at the end of January, but Democrat Senator Chris Murphy fears that will be too long to wait to push through more aid. “My sense is they start to run short on ammunition in the next several weeks,” he said.

Strickland claims one of the reasons given for his dismissal was his refusal to implement Francis’ 2021 restrictions on celebrating the old Latin Mass.

IDF officials said Sunday they are prepared to evacuate babies from Gaza’s largest hospital where power has run out, leaving two newborns to die and dozens more at severe risk.
