(CNN) Illinois Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger is sick and tired of what he is hearing -- and not hearing -- from some of his Republican colleagues when it comes to Russia and authoritarian ruler Vladimir Putin.
In a posted to Twitter on Tuesday -- which had already garnered more than 400,000 views by midafternoon -- Kinzinger sharply criticizes members of his party for what he sees as their unwillingness to speak out against the crisis in Ukraine.
"We are being governed by a bunch of children," says Kinzinger. "By a bunch of people that are not serious about running the United States of America and truly don't understand the threat that's out there from Vladimir Putin, from China and from some of these actors in the world that want to destroy our place here."
Kinzinger mentions only House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Fox host Tucker Carlson by name in the video.
