The United States has overpromised support to Ukraine.

As Americans continue to sour on further support, and Biden's $60 billion aid package is stalled in the U.S. House, that promise appears more and more impossible. Even House Speaker Mike Johnson's new attempt to move a $43 billion proposal faces harsh backlash from his fellow Republicans that threatens his continued speakership.
