"Sadly, what I didn't hear tonight was a clear explanation of where the first $50 billion we sent to support their efforts went," she continued. "Until Congress receives a full audit on where our money has already gone, I will not support sending additional money to this war. President Zelensky is working to protect his country, his border and his people. I get it. I really just wish our commander-in-chief would do the same right here at home and secure our southern border and protect our people."
