Busy crafting legislation to give away 18 billion dollars, its OK we are being invaded by criminals.

quote:

Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., is putting legislation on the House floor next week to give Israel $17.6 billion in emergency funding.
The timing is notable given that Senate and White House negotiators are expected to release legislative text this weekend for a border security compromise in addition to President Biden's $106 billion supplemental funding request for Ukraine, Israel, humanitarian causes and other issues.

The House just passed a tax bill this week too. The bullshite and ineffective Senate immigration bill isn’t before the House yet.

What exactly is your complaint?

Oh wow, you got him! This proves he is not one of your ilk of knuckledragging isolationists. And thank God he’s not.

Sad to say but happy to see he might be a GOP who learned how to play the “gotcha game” the Dems play. Force them to vote no for Aid to Israel and piss off American Jews while providing cover for the GOP to vote down the dem immigration sham.

Oh, well I guess we should just constantly attack Republicans then. Democrats will definitely do better.

The House already passed a bill to fund Israel after the 10/7/2023 terrorist attack, to be funded by cutbacks in funding for additional IRS agents.

WTF is Johnson doing this for? Make the GD senate pass Israeli support as a standalone bill or have them mark up what the House already passed, and then go to a conference committee to work out the differences.

This is the way it is supposed to work.

The government SHOULD have been shut down already. It's beyond dysfunctional and corrupt. ZERO additional spending should be approved. Including ZERO for the border. Border security doesn't need more money, existing laws need to be enforced.
Johnson says all the right things, but brings no action, which is true for 95% of the House. The Rep cowards in this House have the ability to do more but are as corrupt as the Dems.

Nope. But the political reality is that money is going to Israel and I’m in the minority.

Unlike you though, I don’t have a compulsion to obnoxiously attack people I agree with more often than not over political realities.

Are you a 40 year old with the maturity of a pubescent 13 year old or do you just pretend to be one online?
