The House voted resoundingly on Saturday to approve $95 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, as Speaker Mike Johnson put his job on the line to advance the long-stalled aid package by marshaling support from mainstream Republicans and Democrats.
In four back-to-back votes, overwhelming bipartisan coalitions of lawmakers approved fresh rounds of funding for the three U.S. allies, as well as another bill meant to sweeten the deal for conservatives that could result in a nationwide ban of TikTok.
The scene on the House floor reflected both the broad support in Congress for continuing to help the Ukrainian military beat back Russia, and the extraordinary political risk taken by Mr. Johnson to defy the anti-interventionist wing of his party who had sought to thwart the measure. Minutes before the vote on assistance for Kyiv, Democrats began to wave small Ukrainian flags on the House floor, as hard-right Republicans jeered.
Congratulations everyone for refunding israel all of the money they lost on committing their Genocide.
Keep on voting for Genocide Joe!

What’s the alternative?
Cornel West or the Greens
Hah!
Gast pleur echt heel hard op met zulke comments. Op wie wil je dan dat Amerikanen gaan stemmen? Je krijgt maar twee opties. Dan maar de minst slechte. Als we in Nederland zouden moeten kiezen tussen D66 en PVV dan toch veel liever D66?
