McCaul says Johnson is committed to put a vote for Ukraine funding on the floor after Easter
The Hill ^ | 03/24/24 11:28 AM ET | BY LAUREN SFORZA

Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas) said Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is committed to putting a vote for Ukraine funding on the House floor some time after Easter.

“His commitment is to put it on the floor after Easter and we are working on this bill,” McCaul told CBS’s Margaret Brennan on “Face the Nation.”

When pressed further on whether this means they will vote on the bill as soon as April 9 — when the House returns from recess — McCaul just emphasized he would like it done “as soon as possible.” McCaul is the chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and has been a strong supporter of approving additional funding for Ukraine, which has been fighting Russia for more than two years.

This WILL be the final straw for some Freepers I suspect as far as the House is concerned.

It's a massive and key betrayal.

What is the difference? Just put the Dems in charge.

Johnson sold out on funding for illegals and the NGOs that fly them here.

Now this.

Their goal is to turn over the House to Dems and make it illegal for Trump to run for POTUS.

The Swamp seems undrainable...

Biden is not going to enforce the border. So we can’t do anything about it until November.

I think it is likely the handful of hard core rino never Trumpers have a gun to Johnson’s head, have the vote or a few more leave and give the House to the rats. When they do give the rats the House you will see the difference and it is going to be miserable.

Johnson is reprehensible. A very weak leader.

ANY commitment to funding border security?

Build the wall.

Secure the border with troops

Rescind all work papers

Reschedule all court dates to before end of the year

Turn back everyone at the border if they don't have visa

Implement eVerify for all current and future workers

End H1B, give them 90-days to leave

End protective status to everyone, including especially DACA

Ban drivers licenses for illegals, else cut state highway funding

Ban state funding of illegals, else cust state funding by same amount

Ban in-state tuition for non-citizens, regardless of status

Tax remissions by 50%; ban them by illegals

Reward local and state law enforcement for each and every illegal they capture and turn over.

Deport any non-citizen charged with a crime, either after conviction and sentence served, else as alternative to conviction and jail.

Give illegals 90 days to leave, else permanent bar from US

and so much more...

If he allows a vote on this, he’s got to go.

If one is 50 years old or younger, the border has never been secure in one’s life.
With Republicans in charge we head to hell at 10 mph, with Democrats 25 mph.
Same ending.

Nobody gets deported until another nation agrees to accept the deportee. Our government accepted them; it will not be so easy to get rid of them.

Deportation

[Excerpt]

If a judge rules that the deportation proceeds, the receiving country of the person being deported must agree to accept them and issue travel documents before the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement can carry out the removal order.

True, Trump 1.0 said he’d cut off any country that didn’t take them back. He didn’t (e.g., India and China). Obviously Biden doesn’t either. What is future of this?

The bill calls for only $14B in direct aid to Ukraine, the rest stays here with the MIC. Even $61B won’t change things. Anyway, when we’re rolling up debt at a $3T a year, what’s another $61B?
The important point is that it eliminates a very important campaign narrative for the Dems. When the Uke collapse is complete, Biden can’t claim Republican intransigence caused it. He’ll have to eat it.

Texas RINO Michael McCaul needs to get out of the US House and not come back IMHO.

I won’t let Trump get their butts out of the fire if they send more money to Ukraine either.

Here in Pennsylvania the US Senate GOP candidate Dave McCormick can expect the cold shoulder on my vote,
