Rep. Mast grills Blinken over 'lies' on Ukraine: 'He gave no answers'

There's a video at the link. Not surprised at the names involved nor the answers. Clumsy liars and/or just stupid. Either way, unqualified for their jobs.

Rep. Brian Mast said the Biden administration is "trying to overwhelm and cover things up" on a variety of issues. Mast, R-Fla., joined "Fox & Friends" Friday to address how Secretary of State Antony Blinken provided no answers on the administration's plans for the Ukraine war.

REP. BRIAN MAST: We had Secretary Blinken come before the Foreign Affairs Committee, and I think this shows that the administration was really trying to do a garbage dump on Capitol Hill because they also sent Mayorkas and the CDC and they did the Disinformation Governance Board, all in one day, they're just trying to overwhelm and cover things up. But Blinken specifically, he came to Capitol Hill and gave basically no answers to Republicans or Democrats. And even at one point, as he was speaking to me, went so far as to say that Ukraine would be making decisions about U.S. sanctions, U.S. commerce and what we choose to regain with Russia, basically saying United States of America, who Ukraine is coming to for assistance, we're not in the driver's seat, we're not determining red lines, we're not even determining our own commerce. That's all going to be figured out by another nation over in Europe. That's not the United States of America.

And we're sending billions of taxpayer dollars over without any evidence of how it's being spent.

Technically, it has cost nothing. We are sending inventory already bought and paid for. Replacing it will cost. I promise you there are beancounting supply pogues all over the military and Fed sewer that know exactly what is going where.


I haven't heard yet of any US hardware making any significant impact anywhere. The only real, identified weapons I have heard of since this started have come mostly from Turkey and Eastern Europe. Whatever Western Europe and the US are promising is all on the slow boat somewhere.

If the money turned up in Hunter Biden's bank account I wouldn't be a bit surprised at this point.
