Summary

When Congress returns this week, they face a long to-do list that includes the debate over approving more additional military aid for Ukraine The American people's support for funding Ukraine's efforts against Russia has waned significantly since the war began nearly three years ago. Further complicating things, many Republicans say they will not vote for any additional foreign aid until the U.S.'s southern border is addressed. Earlier this week, Congressman Michael Waltz (R-FL) joined host Dave Anthony to discuss why he thought backing Ukraine remains in America's interest, but also laid out why the war-torn country cannot simply receive a blank check. Rep. Waltz also discussed the ongoing crisis in the Red Sea and how the Houthi rebels continue to attack ships and disrupt global trade. We made edits for time and thought you might like to hear our entire conversation with Congressman Michael Waltz. On today's FOX News Rundown Extra, you'll hear even more about his take on the debate over Ukraine funding, and what he believes the Biden Administration should be doing to protect America's interests in Europe and the Middle East.
