KremlinTV delighted in playing clips of these treasonous swine. Matt Gaetz and Lauren Boebert in particular received praise, while Josh Hawley and especially Tucker Carlson have made appearances on Russian state television numerous times before.

Russian state-funded media played clips of Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Fox News host Tucker Carlson because the conservative personalities oppose additional U.S. aid for Ukraine.

A Russian correspondent noted that 86 Republicans refused to attend Zelenskyy's speech.

The correspondent referred to Boebert and Gaetz as "brave" for attending the speech despite objections to military aid.

"Gaetz and Boebert didn't chap the palms of their hands [clapping]," the reporter observed. "They demonstrably remained seated and didn't jump up."

Yes, good little foot soldiers for Mother Russia. Ronald Reagan would spit on both of them. Video clipped and translated by Julia Davis of Russian Media Monitor.

Russian state TV relies on Tucker Carlson, Josh Hawley, Matt Gaetz and Lauren Boebert to promote their talking points that America is sick and tired of supporting Ukraine. https://t.co/GNu7y2UTGn

Sear this image into your mind forever. As the rest of Congress applauded President Zelenskyy for his heroism yesterday, Lauren Boebert & Matt Gaetz just sat there smugly looking at their phones. Shameful. A total embarrassment. They don’t belong anywhere near Congress. Period. pic.twitter.com/z5Z9X7mdVA

Gaetz must be feeling some heat for his bullshit, as he tweeted this out this morning. You're not fooling anyone, Matt Gaetz.

I’m not pro Russia. I’ve even been personally sanctioned by Putin.

I’m pro America.

Bathing historically corrupt countries in US weapons and cash typically doesn’t go well for America. (See Afghanistan). https://t.co/IV6V8IDJMk
