House Intelligence Chair: Russian Propaganda Reaching US Congress, Hampering Ukraine Support

House Intelligence Chair Mike Turner says Russian propaganda has reached the US Congress, with some members repeating inaccurate pro-Russia talking points about Ukraine.

Turner agrees with Rep. Michael McCaul that Russian propaganda has infected a chunk of the Republican party's base.

Turner says propaganda makes it harder to pass Ukraine aid and present the conflict as a battle between democracy and authoritarianism.

Turner argues the US must stand up for democracy and help Ukraine at this critical time when aggressive authoritarian regimes will never stop on their own.

Turner calls on Congress to step up and provide vital aid to Ukraine.
