Still nothing to stop illegal immigration, the number one domestic issue.

This Republican conference is the most embarrassing, dysfunctional ever.

It’d be better to turn the Congress over to the Democrats so as to position Republican congressmen as insurgents come November!

I have nothing wrong with individual defense aid bills. It gives each rep the ability to vote on an individual thing, and that is better than “omnibus” bills that want to lump all sorts of things together.

I think yes, aid to Ukraine and Israel should be individual bills, on their own. And a U.S. border bill should be on its own. Let everyone see how each rep stands on each individual issue.

However, on any Ukraine bill, I would like to see an amendment that calls for the cost of it to come out of the trillions in domestic spending that has already been handed to Biden. Biden already has the money, it just needs to be reallocated with no additional spending needed.

Massie is right to be moving in this direction. And he’s smarter this time to demand a resignation rather than just oust Johnson without a replacement ready.

I am mistrustful of Marjorie Taylor Greene though since she is still Kevin McCarthy’s puppet and she looks like a man. Having Massie on board makes the idea seem somewhat better.

All American citizens should be in DC protesting any foreign aid to any nation. Especially Israel. WE’RE DONE.

If we actually had a right wing, things would be a lot different.

I have been saying dont toss Johnson bc RINOS will vote with the communists to put Jefferies in speaker position but it’s despicable what Johnson is doing. At this point, screw it, burn it down. What is wrong with these people???????

*******************************

And since Johnson agreed to those terms he’d have no basis to complain. Hey, Johnson, I’ve got an idea… DO WHAT YOU SAID YOU’D DO!

At this point, the House having no Speaker and doing nothing is preferable to what it is doing. As Gideon J. Tucker wrote, “No man’s life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session.” (Often wrongfully attributed to Will Rodgers.)

Good for Massie.
I wouldn’t count on MTG.
.
If true that speaker Johnson is calling for a Uke aid vote, then there’s no choice but to vacate the chair.
I hope and pray that the votes to do so will be there.
I just wrote to my rep..all have same email format
.
(first).(last)@mail.house.gov
example - jane.doe@mail.house.gov
.
my email ended with God Bless the patriots who caused RINO McCarthy to leave.

Johnson’s complex plan to advance billions of dollars in foreign aid to Ukraine, Israel and TaiwanYet the U.S. Border is the number one concern of taxpayers that they are putting on the hook for this overseas funneling of money. I just don't get it.
