U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered a suspension of all military aid to Ukraine, escalating pressure on President Volodymyr Zelensky mere days after a heated exchange in the Oval Office cast doubt on U.S. support for Kyiv.

A senior Defense Department official told Bloomberg that all U.S. military assistance to Ukraine is on hold until Trump determines that Ukrainian leaders are making a genuine effort toward peace.

The pause affects not only future aid but also weapons already in transit, including shipments on aircraft and ships, as well as equipment awaiting transfer in Poland.

    When are we going to stop this?

    When congress starts impeachment proceedings. Call your representatives. Listening you complain is their job.

            It sounded like you were saying “You already impeached him, and he’s still president (so impeaching him again is a waste of time)”, but I could’ve misread you.

              That is also my point. Don’t worry though, you keep impeaching him until he dissolves congress.

              You’re response being ‘yeah but you can be impeached multiple times’ exactly demonstrates the weakness of that action.

                What do you think “impeachment” is? That’s like saying “You can’t sue him a third time. You already sued him twice, and nothing happened.”
