House republicans who support Ukraine were alerted after an explosive Oval Office meeting ended with the leader of KYIV who was started from the White House.
“The US is now on the wrong side of this war, against freedom,” said Rep. Don Bacon, R-Ne, to Fox News Digital.
Bacon compared president Donald Trump And vice -president JD Vance to Democrats during the Cold War, a time when Republicans were the considerably more ragged party in Russia.
“Trump and Vance sound like the Democrats from the seventies and eighties. Rolominations. I am still with Reagan,” said Bacon.

Another Gop legislator granted anonymity to freely blame both sides and called the meeting “a missed opportunity for both Ukraine and the United States and a great victory for Vladimir Putin.”
Van Zenskyy was expected to sign a deal with Trump on Friday to give the US access to income from the range of critical minerals in Ukraine.
But that seems after the Exceptional Testy meeting For both parties, where Trump Zenskyy said that he acted “thankless” for the US’s invasion of Russia.
“You don’t have the cards now. At us you have to have your cards,” Trump told him. “You are gambling with the Second World War. And what you do is very disrespectful for the country.”
Vance accused Zenskyy of trying to litigate their problems for the American media and added: “Offer some appreciation for the United States of America and the president trying to save your country, please.”
Zenskyy shot back: “Have you ever been to Ukraine? Have you seen the problems we have? Come.”
Sources that spoke to Fox News Digital said the meeting was astonished and delivered to the future of Ukraine.

“Sane Republicans are pissed off”, a Republican source of foreign policy told FOX News Digital. “(The Russian government) will break every agreement, cheat, lie and come back for everything as soon as we look away. If Trump thinks his report with Putin will change a thousand years of Russian mindset, he will discover the hard way.”
A senior house Gop assistant said: “What happened in the White House today was a shame. We are actively encouraging Putin and rejecting American strength and worldwide leadership by turning Ukraine’s back.”
Rep. Mike Lawler, Rn.y., wrote on X without imply more than the other than the other than the other, “if someone who fundamentally believes that Russia, China and Iran are not our friends or allies and continues to believe that it is important to support Ukraine, it was extremely short -sighted to participate in that type of vs and an international agreement.”
The vast majority of the GOP legislators who are in public statements, however, Praised Trump and Vance.

“Beyond are the days of foreign leaders who walk over us and swallow their noses in the generosity of America. There is a new president and vice-president in the city. World leaders would be wise to humiliate themselves,” written Rep. Andy Biggs, R-AZ, on X.
Huis Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast, R-fl, said in a statement: “America will not be benefited and America will not be taken for granted. Thank you, President Trump and Vice-President Vance for standing up for America.”
A source close to Vance told Fox News Digital after the meeting that the fighting came from Zenskyy during the meeting and that it was “unexpected” by Trump and Vance.

“The vice -president and president did not expect Zenskyy to enter into such disrespectful behavior,” said the source close to Vance.

“We had a very meaningful meeting in the White House today. A lot was learned that could never be understood without conversation under such a fire and pressure,” Trump wrote. “It is amazing what comes out of emotion, and I have established that President Zenskyy is not ready for peace when America is involved, because he feels that our involvement gives him a big advantage of the negotiations. I do not want to take advantage, I responded to the United States of America in the cherished oval office. He can come back.”
But former rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Onl., A Top-Trump critic who recently said he is starting to identify more with Democrats, wrote on X: “Zenskyy showed Trump like a small B —-.”
