America last!
The U.S. Senate has cast a contentious vote, advancing a massive $95 billion foreign aid package that supports Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and Taiwan, but notably omits any provisions for bolstering U.S. border infrastructure.
In a 67-32 cloture vote, the Senate crossed party lines, with several RINO senators joining Democrats to move the foreign aid bill forward.
Republicans who joined Democrats in voting in favor include:
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
Mitch McConnell (R-KY)
Bill Cassidy (R-LA)
Roger Wicker (R-MS)
Todd Young (R-IN)
Susan Collins (R-ME)
Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV)
John Kennedy (R-LA)
John Thune (R-SD)
Dan Sullivan (R-AK)
Mitt Romney (R-UT)
Joni Ernst (R-IA)
Mike Rounds (R-SD)
Thom Tillis (R-NC)
John Cornyn (R-TX)
Chuck Grassley (R-IA)
Jerry Moran (R-KS)
According to Capitol Hill correspondent Jamie Dupree, the bill is “likely to pass the Senate – maybe by Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.”

Why are we giving aid to Gaza?
“Our Senators sure hate America.”
Not near the hate going their way.
The U.S. doesn’t even recognize Taiwan as an independent country, so I’m not exactly sure what it means to “support” it.
I’m not in KS anymore, but I see Moron voted with the dems.
Great point!
Heh, watch Tucker a journalist, strike a cease-fire deal with Putin something our gummit is incapable of doing. Then of course countless billions will be spent rebuilding Ukraine like every other country we have in the past. But no matter as we are headed to a financial collapse by the end of the decade anyway.
Exactly! Israel needs to be cut off permanently. They can sustain themselves without our help.
Todd Young…rhymes with turd scum.
As I’ve posted here before that RINO Hoosier tricked me into voting for him. Ads about his MILITARY SERVICE (which I’m getting sick of every other leftists, rino and Dem bragging about being a veteran…well yeah so was Oswald) and being so opposed to Biden because of his fiscal responsibility and oh yeah…his FAMILY VALUES.
Turd Scum got in and his FIRST 2 votes were 1. Biden’s 1.7 trillion Omnibus spending bills AND 2. the LGBTQ family rights :marriage act”:
YES and BEST of all barely 29 miles east of me is where the Turtle Mitch McConnel rules with his chi comm wife. I’m in one of the most red areas of the country and we have managed to elect almost 100% RINOS.
🤬🤬😡😡
I feel like I am living in a country I don’t recognize any more. Anti America... Anti God.. Anti citizens. How can the congress take part in this? Our country is no more the great United States.. It’s a ragged land overshadowed by evil.. It hangs over everything.
The left.. The evil left people have taken the elected President who was reviving the land, and removed him.. Putting in a demintia patient who is not capable of anything but what his boss tells him.
This country is not what it was 4 years ago. We are not free. The dollar is losing. Christians being tracked. The republicans are useless.. We will not make it if all we have are the lost corrupted democrats. They don’t know how to do anything but the wrong thing
RINOs love laundering $
The GOP Senators had no choice, if the agree with the military aid offerings, because there is not going to be any Senate bill on the border, because the Dims will never participate in a Border bill that the GOP should accept. The military aid bills and any border bills should be standalone bills, not conjoined. We did it in the House with an aid to Israel bill. The only reason that bill didn’t pass was procedural - how the bill got to the floor vote - which required a 2/3 majority to pass.
.
Why, somebody have a gun pointed at their heads?
They subvert the constitution by deleting all the text in a spending bill sent over from the house. Then they insert there own text into it. That is what I understand. No doubt they did that here. They are all lawless.
Anyone voting for this compromised and unfit for office.
around half of Republican senators are infiltrators. The proof is always in the way they vote.
Never mind him, he hates Israel.
The WHOLE WORLD has a welfare State.
Barak Obama once said that Sen. Dick Lugar (also from the solid Red state of Indiana) was his favorite Republican senator.
Well, Todd Young is working hard to replace Lugar as the Democrat's favorite RINO senator.
Everyone was expected a big Red Wave in the midterms. His votes with the democrats just prior to the mid-terms--helped to give Biden and the democrats huge wins--helping ensure that there would be no Red wave.
