Mike Johnson’s Spending Bill Includes $300M for Border Patrol — in Ukraine
Breitbart ^

Posted on 04/20/2024 5:32:29 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

A spending bill backed by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) includes hundreds of millions of dollars in American taxpayer money for border patrol agents in Ukraine as illegal immigration at the United States-Mexico border remains at record levels.

The spending bill, which 151 House Republicans helped 165 House Democrats advance on Friday, would see more than $95 billion sent to foreign countries — including about $61 billion to Ukraine amid its ongoing war with Russia.

Slipped into the funding package’s Ukraine spending is $300 million for “the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine 20 and National Police of Ukraine, including units supporting 21 or under the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.”

You have no idea of how much I despise that little weasel. Something about that guy has always given me the creeps. I wouldn’t be surprised if he engaged in some sexual indiscretion and is now being blackmailed by the deep state. In any event he’s a traitor to the people.

he has been a disaster = saying one thing and doing another. i don’t think he should be ousted at this point because we might end up with Jefferies - but he definitely should be gone at the end of this session. he folded like a cheap suit.

I can’t decide which is more harmful to us. leftists or RINOs, I think the later:

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. “ Cicero

Substitute “party” for nation and he described our current situation perfectly.

Well now, let’s see. Hakeem Jeffries is pretty intelligent. And as far as his spine goes, he never backs down from that Marxist agenda push. How about him as the “next speaker”?

This is a case of the opposite of Hanlon’s Razor. It really is intentional and deliberate sabotage of the US via legislation. Johnson is in on it. But the idiotic move to replace him now is just going to hand the control of the House to the Democrats. If that’s what you want, carry on.

Paul Ryan Rino clone. Nothing for sure these two faced bozos are being exposed for what they are. Only interested in themselves and other nations so they can set their beaks of contracts etc related to these deals.

It’s hard to see in what sense the U.S. is still a nation anymore. It’s more of a cash-pot the rest of the world dips into.

I was pretty unhappy after reading FR concerning aid to Ukraine and the funding bill before the House.

I was convinced that Johnson was going against the will of a majority of House Republicans and was going to try to pass the bill anyway.

Turns out a solid majority, nearly an overwhelming number, of House Republicans supported the bill, which included Ukraine aid.

So, is it our position that we want a Speaker who works against the majority of House Republicans?

$300M for Border Patrol — in Ukraine

$300 M doesn't do shit for border patrol anywhere. It's a payoff to someone disguised as a good deed. Cui bono? Is Mike getting his 10%. Is the $30M taxed?

Mike Johnson is nothing more then a D.C. Maoist party member.
