Mike Johnson should tell the Dems that the house will write a clean bill that:
1) Gives some money to Ukraine but it must come out of current spending authorizations outside of the Pentagon and DHS.
2) Requires the cancellation and reversal of every Biden executive order concerning the US Border in 2021 or 2022.
Even if you could magically get the Senate to agree, Biden won't. So what are you accomplishing?

It's called leverage. Those who utilize it well can attain wondrous things. Johnson has all the leverage. He already wants to cut spending so shutting down the government isn't a problem for him. He already wants border security and he knows the quickest way to do that is the remove executive orders and allow the border patrol to do their jobs and deport illegal immigrants. He already wants single appropriation. It's a win-win for Johnson here and I doubt he will blink if/when the government shuts down.

So what are you accomplishing if you fold? It takes all 3 to pass for BOTH SIDES. The SOTH has the power here.
