Rep. Adam Schiff says the International community is united in response to Russia's attack on Ukraine.
RELATED: Russia invades Ukraine, Biden calls out Putin for 'premeditated war'
As Russian tanks rolled into Ukraine, congressional Democrats condemned Vladimir Putin, backed President Joe Biden, and endorsed new economic sanctions on Putin's regime, while Republicans offered a more divided response that included attacks on Biden.
"Putin’s decision to invade is an evil, panicked move of weakness and will be his defining mistake,” tweeted Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn.
Murphy also said "Putin has plans for us too," and the Russian strongman "will use this crisis to try to divide Americans from each other and to separate America from our allies."
He added: "In this, we must remain vigilant and united. This is not a moment for politics to trump security."

Former Democrat Tulsi Gabbard (a veteran) summed it up best: “this war and could have easily been avoided if Biden Admin/NATO had acknowledged Russia’s legitimate security concerns regarding Ukraine’s becoming a member of NATO, which would mean US/NATO forces right on Russia’s border,” Gabbard tweeted late Wednesday night., zz::
