Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) on Monday accused War Secretary Pete Hegseth of throttling controversial Ukrainian military action against Russia that the congressman said is backed by President Donald Trump. “The White House authorized long-range Ukrainian strikes into Russia,” Bacon wrote in a post to X. Weeks after the plan was announced, the Wall Street Journal reported that Hegseth was blocking Ukraine’s use of U.S.-made long-range missiles to strike inside Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has asked Trump to supply Kyiv with valuable U.S.-made long-range Tomahawk missiles to use against Russia. The Tomahawk missile’s range of roughly 1,500 miles would place Moscow well within the range of Kyiv.
