Massie:

“The supplemental (Ukraine aid bill) which added up to about $100 billion was a betrayal again because the majority of Republicans voted against it and yet Mike Johnson voted for it and he figured out a way through the Rules committee of snookering everyone and packaging it in such a way that Rand Paul, Mike Lee and others like JD Vance etc. were limited in their options to fight it.”

“We’re in a shared power structure in the House of Representatives and many of my colleagues don’t want to admit it”

“Why are the Democrats saving Mike Johnson? Because he gives them everything they want.

“He gives Jeffries and Schumer everything they want. They dont want to deal with the border or cut spending there’s a long list of things they want and Mike Johnson gives it to them”

Don’t buy into the silly political theater you see from the GOP. If the vote for that Ukraine aid bill had been held behind closed doors, it would have passed with nearly unanimous Republican support.

I at least give the Republican Party credit for being politically astute. When they want to get a GOP bill passed that would raise all kinds of opposition among Democrats — like a Ukraine aid bill that is basically a massive welfare bill for white people and defense contractors — just let the Democrats be the ones who are corrupt and stupid enough to push it.
