no more money for Ukraine ,Zelenskyy is too much corrupt
Éste tipo es sólo muestra que él trabaja para la agenda del hombre que vendería a los Estados Unidos por unas monedas. Trump.
Parece tonto quien garantizar El resultado de una guerra como Vietnam Agganistan.
El speaker es sólo una marioneta más de Trump terminará en el mismo agujero.
So our children starve while biden and zeliski eat steaks ?? We the people dont think so !
Tell " the NEWEST RINO to tell that to congress !
This is al a PR move for MAGA and M Johnson…we can work on the border problem and help support DEMOCRACY to thrive around the world. MAGA doesn't tell the whole story! You can blame the border problems on the Texas Governor for not working with the ADMIN.
It is too much to ask details, Biden can't process details. Biden just wants $$$$.
It's not Mike Johnson anymore, it's Noah…
If you stand with Ukraine, then you don't hold aid funding up for ransom. Take a straight up or down vote on the aid package with no attachments and we'll see who really supports Ukraine. The border issue is a domestic one and has no place in international crisis like the invasion of a sovereign country by one of our largest adversaries which just happens to threaten all that we have worked for since the end of WWII. STUPID REPUBLICANS! Every last one of you!!!!!!! You are emboldening our enemy's with this stupid political footballing. This is how you lose a superpower.
👍👍👍
Fentanyl overdoses = supply & DEMAND. Americans are killing themselves.
😡
Y'all remember how Canada shut their border down during covid it's not that hard but these old fux are playing games
"Yes, we support Ukraine, but…"
The excuses are endless.
Put your money where is your mouth is! The strategy to win is keep fighting! You should stop pretending that you don't love Fascism.
Johnson and his GOP colleagues should be ashamed of themselves
I don't stand with Naxzies Mr speaker and No more aid to Ukraine period US Supporting Naxzies Ukraine is on the wrong side of History we should be Supporting Russia Federation
So Fentanyl is also the fault of the Ukranians?
The United States mainly transfers weapons to Ukraine which they replace with more modern ones.
These Ukrainians are fighting an enemy that America should have fought. So, America should always stand beside Ukraine. Ukraine should never give up one inch of land to those commies,
Republicans in Congress are Trump's tail, he wags them as he wants.
Johnson is FOS
Did you give him the money you mofo.
Ukraine win?
Spare us this nonsense!
I love this guy,he is smart,strong and brave.compared to other politicians.
Everything they do is always campaigning, complaining, and blaming the Democrats. They never take responsibility for nothing and I mean Nothing!! Sorry GOP at it again.
Good to hear those Christian values are being held to. Blessed are the Greek for they shall inherit the earth. THE Greek? Did anyone get his name? No, no, it's the meek. That's nice, because they have such a hard time. You would have heard that if you weren't talking, big nose! As if Johnson would know anything about war strategy!
Speaker Johnson is clearly supporting Russia instead of Ukraine.
Johnson is not qualified for the job.
He is supporting Russia because Trump told him to support Putin.
People who believe in democracy and decency support Ukraine and President Joe Biden.
Russian apologists don't want to give any more aid to Ukraine.
go find the old movie called the mouse that roared
This guy should have NEVER been in politics.
I would like to write out a plan to Mr Johnson stating that America’s plan is to help Ukraine win, to their 1999 borders, and for Russia and Putin to be defeated, and the more weapons aide we give them the faster we will help them reach that goal. What's so hard for him to understand about this plan? Unless he's lying about his own support
1. Ukraine is a corrupt mafia state with a massive influence from ukro-nazists war criminals in government, army, police and politics
2. Ukraine has no purpose, no project (outside being anti-russia = proxi for deep state), hence no future
3. Ukraine has zero chance to win whatsoever
4. This money will never be reimbursed
5. Zelensky is a clown, puppet of corrupt oligarchs
6. USA has a $33 trillion debt and the country is in dire straits. Many other priorities are waiting for such budgets
7. Even if they get the $61 Bil aid package, they don’t have the manpower anyway. Many brigades have a average > 50 y.o. age; they also start recruiting women snd 18 y.o. kids in the army. It’s a desperate cause.
8. Nato exhausted it’s weapons stockpile already… more money won’t change that quickly
9. If usa refuse to cede to zelensky’s blackmail now, this means that peace talks will start soon
10. Russia is ready for any scenario, so this aid won’t change anything
