House Speaker Mike Johnson on Wednesday morning shut down the Senate’s foreign aid bill and blasted Joe Biden in a fiery press conference.
Last week Republican Senators voted against advancing a compromised ‘border security bill’ that would have allocated more money to foreign countries while largely ignoring the US border.
The Senate’s $118.28 billion national security supplemental package allocated $60 billion in military aid to Ukraine.
Only $20.23 billion was allocated to secure the US border amid an unprecedented invasion of military-age males from Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and China.
After this bill failed to pass the Senate last week, Schumer rolled out another supplemental aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
The Senate early Tuesday passed Schumer’s supplemental aid package and allocated $95 billion to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. 22 Republicans voted in favor of giving foreign countries money while ignoring the crisis at the US border.
The $95 billion package died in the House. Speaker Johnson shut it down.
.... Snip....
Speaker Johnson blasted Joe Biden
“A man too incapable of being held accountable for mishandling classified information is certainly unfit for the Oval Office,” Johnson said.

Now he must not bring this senate foreign aid spending bill to a vote in the house.
Boom! (I know a lot of FReepers like that word). :D
That's about as bold as you can get. Schumer must be going nuts. He thought Mike was a rug.....someone you could walk all over. The Dems will likely try to get someone to oust him...
Hang tough speaker, don’t become a waffle or a flip-flop.
Where has he been? About time he showed some balls
Indignant speech from Liz Cheney in 3...2...1...
Yes, it is getting close.
Finally!
when it comes to republicans, that is always on the table. cowards and capitulators.
It's not incompetence...it's planning.
Not so fast.
Let's see if he has the cajones to keep his caucus in line to shut down the Dem's threatened Discharge Petition.
Too many RINOs in the Senate voted for this bill, and it would only take a couple of House RINOs to side with the DemocRATs to put this bill up for a vote.
So, IMPEACH HIM!!!!
I predicted the Democrat win but am still disappointed that I was not wrong. I don’t think the GOP had the best candidate available, but we would have likely lost no matter what.
Hold it, did he say Mayorkas was impeached??? Is that useful idiot really gone???
If so can someone pinch me??
Continue to impress me, Mr. Speaker.
Ukraine is the DNC’s largest laundry and they have an election coming up. Stealing takes cash.
Good for him. It’s about time Republicans stopped playing patty-cake with this guy.
Translation: Everyone who hates America sign the discharge petition.
