It’s important to specifically
address the Congress: if the
Congress doesn’t help Ukraine,
Ukraine will lose the war, Volodymyr Zelensky, president of Ukraine,
via video meeting with UNITED24.
If Ukraine loses this war, other

Ukraine has entered a
"transitional phase" of the war.
Russia is conducting probing
attacks along the front line.
It is
trying to advance where it can.
And
it is preparing what seems to be a
future offensive down the road, Franz-Stefan Gady, an associate fellow at the
International Institute for Strategic Studies, to CNN.
This year, Ukraine really needs U.S.
support.
There’s certain weapons
systems, certain logistical support
which the European countries
simply cannot provide to Ukraine, Franz-Stefan Gady, an associate fellow at the
International Institute for Strategic Studies, to CNN

Warnock Calls GOP’s Criticism , of Trans Visibility Day , ‘Opposite of Christian Faith’.
This year, Trans Day of Visibility
coincidentally fell on Easter Sunday.

One of Biden's critics, Speaker Mike Johnson, called Biden's declaration an "outrageous
and abhorrent" attack on the religion. .

Senator Raphael Warnock, a reverend,
has denounced GOP criticism, calling it the
"opposite of the Christian faith," 'The Hill' reports. .
Apparently, the Speaker finds trans
people abhorrent, and I think he
ought to think about that, Sen. Warnock, via interview with CNN's Dana Bash.
This is just one more instance
of folks who do not know how
to lead us trying to divide us, Sen. Warnock, via interview with CNN's Dana Bash.
This is the opposite of the
Christian faith. Jesus centered the
marginalized. He centered the poor, Sen. Warnock, via interview with CNN's Dana Bash.
And in a moment like this, we need
voices, particularly voices of faith,
who would use our faith not as a
weapon to beat other people down but
as a bridge to bring all of us together, Sen. Warnock, via interview with CNN's Dana Bash.
The White House also issued a statement.
As a Christian who celebrates
Easter with Family, President
Biden stands for bringing people
together and upholding the dignity
and freedoms of every American, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates, via statement.
Sadly, it’s unsurprising politicians
are seeking to divide and weaken
our country with cruel, hateful,
and dishonest rhetoric. President
Biden will never abuse his faith for
political purposes or for profit, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates, via statement
