Here are the 70 House Republicans who voted to cut off all US military aid to Ukraine
Yahoo ^

70 House Republicans voted in favor of an amendment to the country's annual defense bill that would have cut off all US military aid to Ukraine.

"Notwithstanding any provision of this or any other Act, no federal funds may be made available to provide security assistance to Ukraine," reads the one-sentence amendment, one of the dozens offered by hard-right Republicans that lawmakers voted on over the course of Thursday evening.

The amendment easily failed by a 358-70 margin, with all Democrats and a majority of Republicans opposing the measure.

That's what people need to quit saying. This was never about "helping" Ukraine or the Ukrainian people. It's all about corruption, and making Ukraine a vassal state of the U.S.

It served multiple purposes. The perfect conduit to launder money, rich in natural resources to plunder, and a transit facility for human trafficking.

The criminal enterprise of the Deep State were using it to fleece the taxpayers, to enrich themselves & the criminal organizations in Ukraine.

The Republicans who voted against the Bill are like the Democrats. They do not want it to be known what is in the Bio Labs. And they also do want how deep they are involved in the Human trafficking and narcotics trade. Along with their other criminal activity. The fate of the Ukrainian People they give not one damn about. But they will protect their criminal fiefdom if it means sending every human being on the face of the Earth to go there and die. And engaging Russia in a all nuclear war. Except them. I was disappointed that I did not read Margie Taylor Greene’s name on the voting no list. But we do have 70 individuals with courage and integrity in Congress. That is 70 more than I thought we had.

I’d like to point one of the 70, my congresscritter Scott Perry. Correction, General Scott Perry, retired. He’s strong on defense but isn’t owned by the MIC. Perry is the chairman of the House Freedom Caucus and as such is rarely on cable news programs of the mainstream variety. They don’t want anything to do with him. He’s an ardent Trump supporter and the FBI ceased his phone a little over a year ago. You can guess what he thinks of weaponized government. He voted against eliminating the debt limit. He voted against every omnibus spending fiasco. He obviously has voted against every one of Biden’s spending bills.

I am hopeful that he is quietly behind the scenes the driving force of growing the number of GOP House members that are voting against McCarthy. That number stood at two dozen when McCarthy was voted Speaker. Perry would make a good Speaker one day. He’s professional, not bombastic. He checks all the boxes for a true conservative and is ranked by the ACU as the number one (tied with others) conservative in the House.

This is not a paid advertisement. 😂

Sounds like a GREAT Rep.

We should all be so lucky.

Wish I could make the same claims as you all. But my Senator John Kennedy is doing a great job in the Senate, for the most part. I will vote against Senator Bill Cassidy, his next time around.

Clay Johnson is from Louisiana, just not my congress person. I have already determined I will not be voting for Julia Letlow again in 2024.

I saw an interview with Jim Caviezel recently. He said the human trafficking industry, body parts division, sends barrels of organs and aborted fetuses to various labs in Ukraine where adrenochrome is made. Can’t let that stop.

The problem with that-no proof. I have no doubt about black market organ harvesting, but the adrenochrome angle makes it sound crazy.

It’s Putin and your country who are destroying world peace. Don’t stick your filthy nose into US politics that you know nothing about.

The ones who voted for it had one question. “How much is my cut?”

One flaw in that thinking-some are probably part of the rope-a-dope: find out who supports it but is willing to vote against because their district is "safe".

I have no doubt a number of them are genuine though.

I just hope I can keep him. The RINO state legislature changes my congressional district every ten years and keeps dumping Democrat areas into it. Three changes in 30 years and the district went from close to 80% GOP to closer to 53% GOP. Plus, Perry is the type to term limit himself based on principle.

There should be more. Many more. We need to get out of Ukraine. It’s a Biden cash cow.

Amen.

Time to close the laundromat.

There are 70 representatives (more than I expected). The rest are human scum.
