"SNIP.......

White House press secretary Jen Psaki accused Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) and other conservatives of “parroting Russian talking points” amid the looming threat of conflict between Russia and Ukraine, The Hill reports.

Said Psaki: “If you are digesting Russian misinformation and parroting Russian talking points you are not aligned with longstanding bipartisan American values, which is to stand up for the sovereignty of countries like Ukraine, but others.”

"SNIP......

Politico: “The disconnect between the GOP foreign policy establishment and the pro-Donald Trump base of the party on the value of intervening in foreign quagmires isn’t new.”

“But the crisis in Ukraine is exposing the widening gulf between the two camps when it comes to committing U.S. resources in support of fledgling democracies under siege by authoritarian regimes.”

1. and we can all infer the meaning of "but others"...

Thank you Jen! Very savvy way to imply treasonous intentions by the likes of Hawley.

well played.

2. I wanted to say something about Josh Hawley...

...but fuck it.

12. +1000

15. Republican Adam Kinsinger just called him "one of the worst human beings and a con artist."

3. Kick and rec

[monkeyman1]

4. follow the money - typically gop-pee ?

[rockfordfile]

5. I agree

[lagomorph777]

6. How many Roubles does Hawley suck in?

And how many Rubes does he sucker?

[Gore1FL]

13. Amazingly not enough to own an actual residence in the state he represents. nt

7. The leader of their party and the propaganda arm, fox, want the US to be like russia

Trump said something about using a tank to take out NATO headquarters. They're not being subtle.

8. R stands for Russia

R also stands for Racism, of course

[calimary]

9. Divide and CONQUER.

I hope the Dems GAIN seats in November, thus at least proverbially/figuratively kicking the pundits in the teeth.

10. I think that is really a BFD

For the President's press secretary to acknowledge it. Says to me the political schism is widely known and is fair game going forward, almost like it's the topic of our times. ID and separate those traitors!

[Sherman A1]

11. Well,

What would one expect from Josh "The Soviet" Hawley?

[jaxexpat]

14. This is very strange indeed.

Always saw Hawley as more a wood stork or, perhaps, a plover, with those mincing little steps. But, I suppose if one were to split his tongue he may speak more parrotesian. That's what I've heard is done with crows.

[Evolve Dammit]

16. Bravo Jen. And subpoena his ass and investigate these connections. Please. This runs deep.

[JustAnotherGen]

17. So the gop is in disarray

Excellent - let's see if the media runs with it.

[SouthernDem4ever]

18. Don't hold yer breath

I am sick of the both siderism game they still play today. I am also sick of them discussing treasonous bastards like they have something of value to say or offer.

19. Antiwar Liberals Have been silent on this site

Remember ..Biden was Senate Foreign Relations chairs and sided with Bush on the Gulf War against the majority of the House Dems and Wellstone etal.. I am old enough to remember the lead up to a couple other Foreign Policy Misadventures.. I have been going over to Antiwar.com, Consortium News, and Counterpunch to check out non-Trumpian critiques of Biden's Ukraine misrepresentations. Obama/Biden letting Nuland and the neocons go ahead with first sponsoring a coup in the Ukraine in 2014, and than promoting NATO Membership of this rump CIA client state is the most reckless act by the MIC in my lifetime.

Eisenhower once opined that he would consider NATO a failure if it were still around ten years after it was formed He must be rolling over in his grave
