"House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Sept. 23 backtracked on his pledge to remove Ukraine aid from the Pentagon funding bill, citing difficulty in removing money earmarked for Kyiv from a different proposal—and opting to keep it in both measures.

Mr. McCarthy told reporters on Capitol Hill that he made the decision to keep the $300 million of Ukraine aid in the Pentagon spending package after realizing that another measure that funds State Department and Foreign Operations also includes money meant for Kyiv, per The Hill.
“That’s not solving it because one of the others has some Ukraine things,” Mr. McCarthy told reporters, referring to an appropriations bill that funds State Department and Foreign Operations, in the context of his earlier promise to remove Ukraine aid from the Pentagon appropriations bill.

“It became too difficult to do that, so we’re leaving it in.”

Say what? WTF was that mumbo-jumbo excuse?

Sounds a lot like some BS Biden would mumble.

Good on Gaetz and a few others to hold the line on not signing any more CR's and Omnibus. Hopefully they continue to do so and don't cave. Shut it down for good for all I care. The whole thing is corrupt from nose to tail. In the long run, we would be better off.

I'm with you - let it burn.

However, If history has taught us anything - it's that it always works out well for the party responsible for government shutdowns.

The House GOP looks super competent right now.

Where were these threads when trump was blowing the budget out?

The right has this weird problem where they attack every other conservative while defending everything the Orange loser does

What’s their objective? Do they have one? Is there an actual plan or just obstruct for the sake of it

I think congress is a corrupt body. I could give two sh!ts about Trump. McCarthy is a strange dude. Talks tough then wimps out.

You made zero threads about trump caving when it came to his trillion dollar spending bills, right?

But we are upset with McCarthy because of 300 million?

It seems like nonsense.

 

[rekinhavoc]

Did you make threads at the time? Too many Trump threads.

I was commenting on McCarthy's mumbo jumbo logic on why he didn't remove the Ukraine aid. I am against sending money to Ukraine. Especially money we don't have. Money that could be used for Maui, East Palestine, etc...

Trump isn't a elected official anymore. McCarthy is and criticism is warranted imo.

True, Trump is not in office right now. But Putin's influence stretches wider than Trump. A substantial portion of the GOP in the House have been compromised.

I can only assume that you believe beyond doubt that the Biden family is compromised by the Ukrainian government

I know for a certainty that Trump has. May just be smart manipulation of him by Putin rather than actual financial or blackmail. Either way, no one can seriously question but that Putin exerts substantial influence over Trump.

The GOP members that seems willing to go along may well simply be a feature of the desire of individual members to stay in the good graces of the Trump cult. But they're still thereby compromised and should be removed from office as soon as legally possible.
