Memo LEAKED and Democrats FREAKING OUT

A group of progressives penned a letter in June to ask Joe Biden to negotiate peace in Ukraine.

They worried that too much money was being spent on the war.

That memo has been leaked, and now the Dems are trying to cover their tracks.

Too Conservative

Almost three dozen Democrats had signed the memo.

The effort was led by Rep. Jayapal (D-WA).

It encouraged Joe Biden to “engage in direct talks with Russia, explore prospects for a new European security arrangement acceptable to all parties that will allow for a sovereign and independent Ukraine, and, in coordination with our Ukrainian partners, seek a rapid end to the conflict and reiterate this goal as America’s chief priority.”

The problem for the group is that the letter was leaked only days after House Minority Leader McCarthy (R-CA) stated that the faucet was about to get turned off.

If the GOP wins the House, McCarthy stated that Biden’s blank check for Ukraine is done.

Now members of the group are trying to figure out how to distance themselves from the letter.

For instance, Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-CA) stated, “Timing in diplomacy is everything.

“I signed this letter on June 30, but a lot has changed since then.

“I wouldn’t sign it today.”

Jayapal withdrew her letter on Tuesday.

She stated, “The Congressional Progressive Caucus hereby withdraws its recent letter to the White House regarding Ukraine.”

She added, “The letter was drafted several months ago, but unfortunately was released by staff without vetting.

“As Chair of the Caucus, I accept responsibility for this.

“Every war ends with diplomacy, and this one will too after Ukrainian victory.

“The letter sent yesterday, although restating that basic principle, has been conflated with GOP opposition to support for the Ukrainians’ just defense of their national sovereignty.

“As such, it is a distraction at this time and we withdraw the letter.”

Think about that… she withdrew the letter simply because it was too close to what Republicans were saying.

That should give you a very good idea of the resistance of Democrats to work with the GOP in today’s political environment.
