Jeffries Accuses Trump and Carlson of Fueling Anti-Ukraine Sentiment Among House Republicans
- Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries blamed Trump and Tucker Carlson for rise in anti-Ukrainian sentiment among House Republicans, calling them "pro-Putin faction"
- Ukraine aid has stalled in House because Republicans demand border security reforms before approving foreign spending
- Jeffries said Trump told Republicans to oppose bipartisan Senate bill that included both Ukraine aid and border security
- Carlson recently visited Russia, interviewed Putin, and published videos praising Russia and criticizing Biden
- Jeffries believes some Democrats would not vote to vacate Speakership if Johnson passes foreign spending bill with Ukraine aid
