Republican lawmakers threaten to block Trump's $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget unless he halts concessions to Russia. Criticism centers on the administration's approach to sanctions and support for Ukraine. Key figures like Don Bacon and Mitch McConnell express concerns over Trump's policies, suggesting a tougher stance on Russia is necessary for budget approval. The upcoming midterm elections add urgency to the situation, complicating the funding process. Trump's reliance on budget reconciliation could be jeopardized by dissent within his party, requiring near-unanimous support from Republicans to secure additional military funding.
