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?




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

Exactly. The only pressure the dems can put on Johnson (outside of character attacks from the intelligence community) is the threat of shutting down the government. Well, as Johnson is MAGA through and through, I don't think limiting the federal government is going to be impactful to him at all.

So what leverage does Schumer and crew have? People are already over the Ukraine war, sentiment has shifted (why do you think Navalny was killed?). So what leverage does the other side have exactly?
