McCarthy on Saturday said he will keep Ukraine aid in the Pentagon appropriations bill just one day after vowing to strip the funding.

In another article, the Hill said:

“McCarthy told reporters that he expects Greene to oppose the procedural vote to advance the four spending bills because of the inclusion of Ukraine aid.”

Congressman Byron Donalds:

“A lot of my colleagues, Freedom Caucus members, etc., need to be very concerned about the fact that we do have some Republican members who are willing to sign on to a clean [continuing resolution] with the Democrats, and basically eliminates out leverage to do anything,” Donalds told reporters on Tuesday, according to Fox News.

“I don’t take that lightly. There’s multiple games afoot in this town,” Donalds said.

According to Fox News, Congressman Byron Donalds’ proposal would fund the government for 30 days with an 8% cut and includes the border security bill.

It all depends upon how much bribe money Zelynskyy is willing to send back. That is his business model, and everyone claiming to “support UK” knows it.

Think on that. Russia is being demonized by folks taking bribes, supporting money laundering on massive scale, and encouraging if not participating in sex trafficking.

Yeah, Russia is a cesspit. But, this is not six of one and half dozen of another. Ukraine is far worse.
