"We can't play politics with this". Mike Johnson has been helping Putin by playing politics with this for six long months. He also played politics by nuking the Ukraine/Israel/Gaza/Taiwan aid bill that had the US border security package included which he had demanded. Maybe he thought he was effectively asking for the broomstick of the Wicked Witch of the West.
While a bi-partisan group in the Senate was working on the border security package, people here were spreading outlandish right-wing lies claiming Biden was willing nix the aid package because he was adamant about taking no action to secure our border. The truth was the exact opposite of this. The work on the border package was not secret except perhaps to those who were intentionally blind to it.
If Mike Johnson has finally (finally!) decided to put the good of the US and the good of the free world ahead of his own craven political interests, then it's about f-in time! But I will only believe this is not part of his anti-American, anti-democracy hi-jinks after we see the bill and after it passes without a lot of onerous BS added.
