- Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) on Wednesday expressed support for President Trump's recent push for an energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine
- Crenshaw slammed Russian President Vladimir Putin over Russia's apparent betrayal of the claimed ceasefire, telling Trump "President Trump did the right thing"
Why it matters: Crenshaw's dual message — backing Trump's diplomatic push while publicly pinning blame on Putin — gives the White House a sitting GOP lawmaker framing Russia as the ceasefire's violator, amplifying Trump's framing of Moscow as the obstacle.
