Got it

Hillary Rodham Clinton:

I think Putin is not only thrilled by the divide over whether we continue, and at what levels, to fund Ukraine. I think he is fomenting it as

well. Putin and his team that does the kind of interventions, covert and overt, aiming to undermine democracy and to suborn political leaders, is a big part of how he sees his role. So, when I see people parroting Russian talking points that first showed up on Russia Today or first showed up in a speech from a Russian official, that's a big point scored for Putin.

When I see Americans in positions of responsibility talking about how we shouldn't support the people of Ukraine, they're corrupt, yes, they are working very hard to be transparent and accountable. And talk about corruption. There is the master of corruption living in the Kremlin.

So there's an ideological and, sadly, partisan political divide. And I know that the majority of Congress is still in favor of supporting Ukraine. So we have got to get through this period. We have to pass legislation and continue to support.

And, Geoff, this fight is our fight. Honestly, I don't understand any American siding with Putin, but we have seen it, and we have heard it, and we have to fight against it.
