You have to be extremely naive to believe that, Johnson is still trying to block and delay anything that help Ukraine.
Johnson is a traitor and will lie with a straight face to help Trump help Putin.
He is trying to make an agreement among republicans that will fail in the senate. To avoid the Bill from the Senate he is blocking the vote on to pass when the discharge forces a vote on it.
And he's just killing time. If they passed the current aid bill, Ukrainians would start getting weapons again in a week.
If he writes new bills, votes on those now, etc etc etc, he can buy Putin another month of Ukraine being weakened.
I don't know if voting for Ukraine aid is really sticking a shiv in MAGA. But they are such thin-skinned babies that I'm sure they will think so.
Oh no, he's going to rile up the snowflakes!
MAGA is a Putin creation of course they'll be upset
Poor Mike Johnson …
I thought we didn’t know anything about his finances because he never submitted supposedly required paperwork upon getting elected. (I’m playing on words here but my point stands)
You made your bed chucklefuck Mike, now lay in it.
He's so poor he doesn't even have a bank account! And I guess share a pornhub account with his son.
One wonders, with such a slim majority, where the speaker and a few others would swing the majority, if they've realised they could negotiate bi-partisan agreements which would push conservative policies at the cost of some democratic ones. It would crush the magas, while still pushing conservative agendas and get som form of government working again.
The trouble is, there doesn't appear to be even a few Republicans left who want that.
