Misinformation

Jan Psaki said that since Biden came to office the US has sent billions in military aid to Ukraine. While this is true what she didn't say is this aid was sent after the invasion. Before that non military aid was sent. Today Biden said he sent aid to Ukraine before the invasion. What he did not say is that the aid he sent was non military. In addition he canceled the last shipment of military aid that Trump approved. These are two factual statements that could be construed as misinformation. This happens frequently when only part of a story is told. People must be willing to take the time to check out any news that is important to them.
