hello. i m jake tapper in washington where the state of our union is deadlocked. ukraine is digging in for a drawn-out war with russia, asking allies for more weapons to support their ongoing fight as vladimir putin declares the ukraine counteroffensive a failure. president biden is just home from a summit with nato allies, where biden promised to keep supporting ukraine for quote, as long as it takes. but biden returned to washington to find congress at odds over the pentagon spending authorization bill. traditionally bipartisan legislation that traditionally passes overwhelmingly. and that s how the bill looked as it came out of the house armed services committee and passed 58-1. but this bill might not even get to president biden s desk for the first time in 60 years, because on the house floor, republicans added amendments relating to controversial social issues in the military. and for some, over ongoing support for ukraine as well, making the bill likely doa, as is in the u.s. se
