Also seeing some tweets about how the Senate passed a foreign aid bill without a dollar for America. Can you believe it? How dare the United States of America pass foreign aid that doesn’t have money for the USA???
how hard is it to force a vote on the senate bill? There is a “discharge petition” mechanism to force votes on things the speaker doesn’t want to bring up but I don’t know how hard it is
Article about the GOP losing any of the remaining shame they had for saying this kind of stuff out loud. I didn’t know they called Mayorkas (who is Jewish) a reptile.
So Republicans are rejecting the Ukraine/Taiwan/Israel bill and now Brian Fitzpatrick is leading another effort at a border/foreign aid bill. How, pray tell, does he expect to get Johnson to allow a floor vote on this one?
Right but they already have a stand alone bill that would get 300+ votes in the House according to Dems (the one that passed 70-30 or whatever in the Senate), but Johnson won’t allow it on the floor. And the House GOP already shot down the border/foreign policy deal they negotiated after Daddy told them no.
Derails the overwhelmingly popular foreign aid package vote to resume negotiations over a border/foreign aid deal like the one they nuked last week to do the stand-alone package…
Receives a briefing on an urgent national security matter, calls on Biden to declassify, then leaks classified national security intel within hours and before Biden can respond…
Goes on vacation until 2/28, next government shutdown deadline is 3/1.
And your prosecutors in the Mayorkas impeachment will be MTG and Clay Higgins. Lmmfao
I was expecting the Senate to brush this aside very quickly, but now I’m having second thoughts. Giving MTG a spotlight and some rope in an election year and tying her to the entire GOP could be a great “Please proceed, governor,” dynamic.
The funniest thing about this is that immigrants, by and large, are significantly more conservative than the average American. The GOP’s own assessment post the 2012 election said as much.
