So, let me get this straight.
Mike Johnson has delayed Ukraine aid from late 2023 to March/April at the earliest thanks to his disgusting politics.
"Behind the scenes, Johnson has met privately with House Republicans who have been trying to build support for a new bipartisan foreign aid package that includes restrictions on the US border with Mexico."
The Republicans (Mike Johnson included) originally demanded that Ukraine aid be attached to a border bill, the Democrats made a right wing border bill and attached it to Ukraine aid, then all of sudden (thanks to Trump telling them not to), Mike Johnson suddenly said "no no, I don't want the border bill attached to Ukraine aid anymore" and Mike Johnson opposed the border deal.
So after all that time wasted, Democrats went "fine, okay, here's the foreign aid bill on its own" which passed Senate and would pass House, then Mike Johnson refused to even put that bill to a vote and now all of sudden, he once again wants Ukraine aid attached to the border bill! After saying he did, then saying he didn't, now he does again!
Not only does this new foreign aid bill decrease the amount from $95bn to $66bn, it removes humanitarian aid, these Republicans are fucking sick.
Ukrainians spend months dying due to lack of ammunition because Mike Johnson can't do his job, can't govern and is a piece of shit taking all his orders from Donald Trump, even Republican voters know Mike Johnson is the reason for the border bill originally collapsing and blame him for it, now he wants to fuck around even further, let more Ukrainians die for his political games.
Disgusting little man.
