Why Ukraine’s Fight Must Continue

My friend, a writer, texted last night from his trench to say a gentle goodbye. His unit is expecting an attack anytime, but they do not have the heavy artillery they need to repel the assault. I am thousands of miles away from Ukraine, on a six-city lecture tour across the United States, addressing public meetings and briefing members of Congress. 

While MAGA Republicans continue to delay aid & cause chaos, President Zelenskyy has made it clear, unless we send aid to Ukraine now, nothing will stop Putin from annexing them or invading other European countries.
Ukraine's holding the line against Putin so that WE DON'T HAVE TO. #AidUkraineNOW.
I believe in #Democracy! Do you? DYK that #Ukraine is a democracy?
They're also an ally. It's our duty as a nation to aid our allies in their fight to hold tyranny at bay. They've got our backs, but Ukraine needs us now more than ever. #AidUkraineNOW #DemCast
We can't abandon democracy. Ukraine is the front line. If we let them fall, the fight will come to us. CONGRESS: #AidUkraineNOW

This might seem like hyperbole, but it isn't.

The fight in Ukraine is 100% about the fight between #democracy and #authoritarianism. They fight so we don't have to.

Sending aid to #Ukraine is an investment in our own future.
