  1. Mike Johnson; Putin’s bitch, along with tRump.

    What a bunch of weaselly, whiny little piss babies.

  2. There’s a Putinesque look to Mike Slimey Johnson, it’s there in his shy sly sneering smiles

  3. It’s because the dems are refusing to budge on asylum. See specifically remarks by Senator Mendenez on the subject. The “compromise” gives the Dems 100% of what they want, while giving the GOP only about 25%; in other words, *it’s not a compromise at all*.

    If the Dems are not willing to place heavier restrictions on asylum, and on presidential parole authority, there’s not going to be a deal. As someone who has voted Democrat my entire life, I don’t understand why they’re being pig headed about this. CLOSE THE FUCKING BORDER.

    The senate deal that ties with the Ukraine aid is here (just released):

    * – President has a new emergency authority to shut down the border when it becomes overwhelmed.
    * – Congress to provide the funding Biden requested in October to secure the border.
    * – This includes an additional 1,300 border patrol agents, 375 immigration judges, 1,600 asylum officers, and over 100 cutting-edge inspection machines to help detect and stop fentanyl at our southwest border.

  5. There is going to be a lot of DOA’s in Ukraine if he doesn’t change his attitude

  6. Man, American really want to throw Ukrainians under the bus cause they hate “brown people” more huh?

  7. The scary thing about America is that it is Trump, a non elected person calling the shots here and the elected officials of the republican part now represent him and not their voters. If trump gets re-elected, he will never leave this time. Putin talked before about his secret weapon that was more powerful than any known missile and here we have it, clear as day. It is down to the American people in the end to decide their own fate and the only way to save the republican party and perhaps America is for republican voters to not show up at the ballot box and punish their representatives until they learn to turn away from MAGA. Good luck US Bros

  8. Cool, Trump is going to lose and now GOP is going to lose more seats because you can’t be bipartisan.

  9. Surprise surprise

    Putin’s cronies block Ukraine aid, again.

  10. Mike Johnson :”Heil Hydra!!”

    He is doing his bit for his “Hero of Mother Russia” medal…. a true Patriot!

  11. The OPEC+ cartel have thoroughly infilitrated American politics. Conspiracy theorists: silence.

  12. Why have the Republicans become lovers of Putin and his invasion of Ukraine.

    We, the US, have spent less then 5% of our military budget and ruined half of Russia’s equipment.

    Lets spend another 10% of our military budget suppling Ukraine and let them ruin the Russian military.

  13. As a fellow Louisianan, I apologize to the world for Mike Johnson.

  14. Moscow Mike. The guy no one had ever heard of seemingly promoted out of nowhere by the GOP to what is effectively the third most powerful elected office in the US government.

  15. Vote all the GOP out come November. No room for fascism in USA

  16. Can we please just split into two different countries at this point? The coasts would be one, and middle America would be another.

  17. Johnson wants the U.S to look as weak and unreliable as possible. Johnson’s boss Vlad demanded this. The Republican Party of 2024 is being operated by the Putin regime.

  18. Fuck MAGA. I can’t wait until they’re purged.

  19. Disgusting. These rotten bastards don’t want to govern or help people. They’re obstructionists who only crave power, to the detriment of us all.

  20. Their little stunt with the border isn’t going to work. If they turn down this border deal, the best they could ever dream of (from a Republican perspective), the opportunity will not come up again. If they are holding it for Trump to solve, that wont happen. Even if he wins, the Democrats will almost certainly control the House, and maybe the Senate. The public is dumb, but not quite dumb enough to not see that all they are doing is just a pathetic parlor trick.

  21. Looks like the US democracy is totally.broken looking in from the outside.

    They are not governing for the betterment of your country, only for themselves.

    That’s pretty sad looking from here. Country looks to be full of self serving idiots.

  22. God I am so Embarrassed America is the new Hungry…

  23. It’s taken me long enough to realize that asking our representatives to simply “pressure” Mike Johnson to schedule a vote is not enough anymore.

    We need to demand that our representatives who support Ukraine file a motion to vacate the chair in order to remove Speaker Johnson. With the current makeup of the house, it would only take around 4 to 5 house republicans to side with the Democrats to remove Mike Johnson and replace him with someone who would actually schedule a simple up-or-down vote on aid to Ukraine.

    As an American, I just want to say that I’m so sorry about what our Republican-strangled government is doing. I live in a district with a Democrat Representative, they already support Ukraine, so I don’t feel like there’s much that I can do.
