A staffer for Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is sharing an op-ed throughout Congress calling on House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) to sacrifice his speakership to advance a Ukraine-first aid bill, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.

In essence, for the sake of alleged national security risks of Russia, Hamas, and China, the radio host calls on Johnson to sacrifice his speakership to help pass the bipartisan, establishment, $95 billion foreign aid packa

But Mitch won’t sacrifice his leadership for the good of America. If Johnson lets this go through, he deserves to be removed.

Apparently they don’t think the optics of a discharge petition would be good.

Just say No! The House as the power of the purse and clear they need to show some leadership here.

No money to Ukraine

Fund the border wall.

Fund deporting illegals.

Defend the US!

Bannon keeps stating there is ‘something else’ going on in the background re: Ukraine.

Republicans would destroy America on behalf of nazi Ukraine.
I despise them and cannot wait to vote for Trump.

Mitch sure seems eager to get this thing shoved down everybody’s throats. What’s going on here, anyway? Is he on the Epstein list or something?

The desperation suggests there is more behind this 61 billion than meets the eye.

Did Mitch and Schumer get threatened with Harry Reid's exercise machine?

“National security is serious stuff, however, the most serious stuff.”

Ukraine is not US national security.

Also, how many years did President Trump BEG, plead and bargain for 18 billion to build a wall? Eff DC straight to hell.

Mitch is incapable of representing his own constituency.

Make those two ‘Rats tell Jao to shut down the border and offset the $100 Bill with cuts elsewhere.

McConnell's SOP is to not work with the House, but to order the House to comply with the Senate.

Meanwhile, Schumer and Pelosi coordinate on everything.

I would be surprised to find Mitch not completely compromised. Schumer doesn’t have to be, because he’s in on it.

This, obviously, has to do with a lot more than money. The killing in Ukraine is about way more than money.

For some reason, what the Democrats were doing needed to be done outside the country. Probably, it’s because if it were done here and could be brought to court, they would hang. Most people find that highly motivating.
