I’m not. Im down to send money as long as the Russians want to fight. They did it to us in Vietnam for nearly a decade

and a majority of Americans just keep voting for the same 2 parties and expect something to change.

Not only that, but they also keep voting for the same deadbeat candidate even when there is another option for the same party. At least 90% of Congress needs to be purged but we would be lucky to see a 10% turnover, except for the vacated seats.

You bemoaning the death of conservatism is like Planned Parenthood preaching abstinence.

What party?

Republicans/Conservatives in Washington DC are a mess. And I'm beginning to believe it is actually by design.

It took 15 ballots to get Johnson, because the GOP has no clue that no one will be perfect, and it actually does take comprimise to run a country such as ours.

But, all you have to do is read this board on a daily basis to see why the 15 ballots were necessary.

Stellar track records with his endorsements.


He can only go by what actions are in front of him. Johnson completely voided his integrity the very moment he decided to go against the word he gave to the American public, especially those in his own party,

It sure didn't from 2009-2016. Emperor Barack pretty much did what he wanted even without Congress.

Have you considered that a big majority of citizens are OVER throwing money at the AWATALAD crowd, and that defunding this scam would GAIN Johnson seats?

This isn’t R v D, it’s citizens v MIC/Pols wanting the handout

How about Mike "Sneaker" Johnson pledging no Ukraine Bill before Border Bill is passed !

Somebody has got some big time dirt on him and he needs to come clean and keep his pledges.

If not he needs to be removed.


Realistically, what are his options for passing a border bill. He sent one to the Senate last year that was a non-starter. The bipartisan one in the Senate was still in the negotiation phase when it got a staunch Republican censured by his state party for trying to get it off the ground. Trump may or may not have told Republicans to not touch the issue so that he could run on it.

What does Johnson do with all of that in the way of passing legislation?

Let's blame the man that actually isn't doing what he said he would do. That would be a good start. Can you put aside your TDS to acknowledge that?

Well shite, they been trying the to get a bill passed for over 6 months now. I’d say that if your goal for him is to stagnate Ukraine and Israel funding bills then he’s done just that.

If you think that allowing 35,000 illegal entries a week (1.8 million/year) is "securing the border", then you're even more of a retard than Lankford is.

Y’all are still on this talking point huh? As if 90% of the money doesn’t go drieectly into the US economy. I know we don’t like democrats but I wish that some of you can understand the basics. We aren’t giving them the vast majority of that money. It’s being allocated to US defense contractors, they are being paid and then the weapons/supplies are sent to Ukraine. The money flows through our economy. I don’t get how most of you don’t understand this concept yet.

I'm sure you think this acronym is exceedingly cool as you use it often but most have no idea what it stands for.

How about Johnson does nothing, other than border security. Let it be known, nothing leaves the House before a legitimate border bill passes. Of course a bill won’t be passed, but at least we won’t spend money THAT WE DONT EVEN HAVE!!
