  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Pennsylvania, touring an ammunition factory and meeting with Democratic officials.
  • House Republicans, led by Rep. Lance Gooden, are demanding an investigation into the use of U.S. military assets and federal resources for the visit.
  • GOP lawmakers accuse Zelensky of making politically charged comments against the Trump-Vance ticket, potentially violating U.S. laws like the Hatch Act.
  • Zelensky's visit included flying on a U.S. Air Force C-17 and receiving Secret Service protection, raising concerns about the use of taxpayer funds.
  • Critics argue the visit was a diplomatic effort to thank American workers and seek continued support for Ukraine, while some Republicans see it as foreign election interference.
