Speaker Johnson made it essentially impossible to vote for any of the bills before the House today without assisting in the effort to send $60 billion to Ukraine and up to $9 billion to Hamas.
He also made it impossible to condition any of those things on U.S. border security.

Do you mean you have a problem with removing control of a major media sensation like Tik Tok, watched/used by millions of our young people, from Chinese control?? If it is a profitable business, someone else will buy it.
It’s the downstream ramifications of the ban that I’m concerned with. This is the proverbial camels nose. Just like the “Patriot Act” those that trust this precedent setting legislation will only be used for good may be sorely disappointed. I don’t have those aspersions as I know downstream it will be used to further erode our rights. Some the have already analyzed the bill have the same fears. While I understand your position we are now living in a brave new world where the left is intent on jamming down as much evil legislation as possible before the election and the Tik Toc ban is a major piece of that.
“It was NOT just A BRIEFING.”
Johnson, himself, said it WAS just A BRIEFING.
And to repeat myself, whatever the briefing contained, it can’t hold a candle to allowing many millions of completely unvetted military-aged males into the country from every enemy country on Earth in a matter of months and financing their stay to the tune of $500 billion a year. It is utterly impossible.
That kind of thing is highlighted throughout history as the main strategy of an enemy to take a country down real, real fast.
I was told that Russia, along with China and Iran, were an Axis of Evil against America. With them helping Russia with stuff, there is no hope for Ukraine to outlast Russia in this War of Attrition.

It is indeed possible that he said it was A briefing, but so far as I know, he and top leadership would also get regular intelligence briefings which would also influence his perception of the problems that he would never get as a minor Congressman.
I thought the left was busy supporting anything that enhances the communist agenda. Which would certainly still be the Chinese/North Korea agenda. As for Putin he is still trying to revive the old Soviet Nation with the red hammer and sickle flag, as I have noted in other specific detailed comments.
I would have to know more of the details about whomever might want to buy out the Chinese or under what legal language they would have to bid to .
It’s becoming of the 17th Amendment.. lobbyists and k street own our government now
All the promise of Mike Johnson’s speakership crumbled to dust over the weekend, as Johnson gave Democrats everything they wanted on Ukraine, FISA, and more without a single concession on the border. Charlie Kirk tries to pick up the pieces and ask: Do Democrats already run the House again? Rep. Thomas Massie weighs in, and Sen. Mike Lee explains a possible Hail Mary to save the day in the Senate.
Back to 10% Big Daddy.
More proof there is just one party in DC.
