@FoxReports Patience is wearing thin for some lawmakers who think White House isn't acting fast enough. "Everything Congress has asked to do, (the administration) has originally said no. And then later on, they say yes after our allies do it. It's slow. It's excruciating." — PolitiTweet.org

@FoxReports Lawmakers and Hill aides tell CNN they expect the next major round of deliberations in Washington on how to best aid Ukraine's fight against Russia will, in no small part, hinge on what exactly Zelensky asks for when he speaks to Congress. https://t.co/9CcQRT3z0n — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden is confronting a daily deluge of pressure from lawmakers to do more -- and act faster -- to help Ukraine. Those calls are poised to only grow louder after Volodymyr Zelensky addresses Congress tomorrow morning. w/ @FoxReports https://t.co/9CcQRT31aP — PolitiTweet.org

The idea behind this, per official, is to continue hurting Russian oligarchs by depriving them of their creature comforts. It is also aimed at removing ways for these oligarchs to shelter their money, as they are already increasingly closed off from traditional financial avenues. — PolitiTweet.org

He told his wife the night before she died that he was sorry he wasn’t with her. “I told her, ‘Forgive me that I couldn’t defend you,’” he said. “I tried to care for one person, and it meant I cannot protect you.” “She said, ‘Don’t worry, I will get out.’” https://t.co/6938ZzYi2Z — PolitiTweet.org
