Sen. Lisa Murkowski said she feels “cheated” after she won a concession in the recently passed tax and spending law to protect wind and solar projects, only to see the president and his administration issue recent orders that she said seem designed to quickly quash such projects.

“I feel cheated,” she said in an interview Friday. “I feel like we made a deal and then hours later, a deal was made to somebody else.”

I found their family channel on YouTube. The wife complains that she does not speak Russian, has no friends, and is a recovering alcoholic. The husband has not sent them any money so she's trying to fund raise on social media. As far as I can see, their three pre-teen daughters do all the housekeeping. The youngest daughter badly needs speech therapy which would be free in a U.S. public school. I'm really worried about the girls. If something happens to the mother, they may end up in the orphanage system. https://www.youtube.com/@HuffmanTime/videos

Why would they end up in an orphanage. The girls are American, so why would they not be sent back home. They have three older brothers who refused to go with the family to Russia. The underage girls, presumably, did not have a choice.

The mother can be locked up and her children institutionalized if she is deemed alcoholic. That is Russian law. Who is paying for the girls to return to the U.S.? The three brothers are from an earlier marriage. Putin is obsessed with gaining population so much that they have kidnapped thousands of Ukrainian children. These girls are prime meat for trafficking. A responsible mother would not risk this.

Because of the reckless decisions she’s already made, I’m not sure she can even do the responsible thing now and get her daughters back to the US. Their family is stranded in a country where they can’t speak the language, know no one, and currently have no income stream. Her husband belongs to Russia’s military now. And she and her husband literally signed up for this.

It looks like her mother is coming to visit soon, so maybe she'll swoop in and pay the 10K to get everyone on a plane back to the States. Since her husband has basically abandoned them, I'm not sure what other choice she has since she doesn't seem to have the survival skills to learn how to navigate the public bus system in Russia, to make friends who can help her figure out how to survive, or to listen to Russians who can tell her how to make her life work in Russia.
