House Speaker Mike Johnson expects a House vote this weekend to send tens of billions of dollars overseas.
The $95 billion bill provides aid to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan and other U.S. allies. Johnson (R-LA) posted to
Johnson texted other House members, saying, “This is what the three bills are about – funding America’s national security interests and allies in Israel, the Indo-Pacific and Ukraine.”
The fourth vote includes support for loans to Ukraine, a possible nationwide ban on TikTok, new sanctions on Iran and a measure that would allow the president to seize frozen Russian assets and use them to fund Ukraine’s war effort. will be included.
“We have taken the Senate supplementary bill and improved our processes and policies, which is really important,” Mr Johnson said. “Every member can vote according to his or her conscience.”

Rand Paul blames Mike Johnson for aid package.
Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) criticized the foreign aid package on social media. He declared a “one-party” effort to put “America last.”
“Mr Johnson and the Unity Party are united behind a laundry list of bad ideas,” he wrote. “From borrowing $95 billion from China and sending it to other countries to meeting FISA warrant requirements, they are checking all the boxes to keep America last.”
Paul detailed the bill’s details in a follow-up post. The bullet points left many Americans wondering why no one in Washington seemingly cared. Why don’t they care that our citizens can’t afford gas and groceries? that much millions Illegal immigrants are overflowing Our Border?
The entire package will go to Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific. Nearly 64% of that goes to Ukraine, which is already a big beneficiary of U.S. taxpayer dollars.
“What do Americans get?” Paul subsequently requests an advocacy support package from Chairman Mike Johnson. “Inflation and open borders.”

Biden is very happy
President Biden is effectively winning the opportunity to sign the aid package being pushed by Chairman Mike Johnson.
“We strongly support this package to gain critical support for Israel and Ukraine, provide much-needed humanitarian assistance to the Palestinians in Gaza, and strengthen security and stability in the Indo-Pacific,” he said.
“I will sign this bill immediately to send a message to the world. “We stand with our friends and we will not allow Iran or Russia to succeed.”
Signs are definitely everywhere. Democrats once again seem pleased that the Republican chairman is taking the trouble to address foreign needs.
It’s clear that Republicans have an unhealthy obsession with being seen as bipartisan rather than doing what voters want.
As Paul said, it’s basically “What do Americans get?”
Remember when President Trump wanted billions of dollars to build a border wall to protect America? That amount can easily fit into this package. This will have no effect and you will still be assessed the lowest allocation amount on your bill.
But always, always, always America comes last and every other country comes first. When does it end?
Now is the time to support and share the sources you trust.
