No Doubt That Moscow Marjorie Traitor Greene is In Her Office, Throwing a Fit and Chewing the Carpet

The House is pushing swiftly through a series of votes in a rare Saturday session to approve $95 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and other U.S. allies, Democrats and Republicans joining together after a grueling monthslong fight over renewed American support for repelling Russia’s invasion.

With overwhelming support, the House approved the Ukraine portion, a $61 billion aid package, in a strong showing of American backing as lawmakers race to deliver a fresh round of U.S. support to the war-torn ally. Some lawmakers cheered, waving blue-and-yellow flags of Ukraine.

The $26 billion package aiding Israel and providing humanitarian relief to citizens of Gaza also easily cleared. Each segment of the aid package faced an up-or-down vote. A national security bill that includes a provision forcing sale of the popular platform TikTok was quickly approved, as was another supporting Indo-Pacific allies.

If the Senate passes the bill, aid will begin crossing into Ukraine in days, which will be just in time to help them fight off Russia's spring offensive (and to send more Katsaps home in zinc boxes).

The amusing thing about this is that Greene and her Batshit Caucus could have gotten money for border security months ago, if they hadn't scotched the comprehensive bill that the Senate passed. That bill also included money for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. But their Orange Manevolent Demon told them to kill the bill and they did.

So now, after a delay of months, those foreign aid bills move forward and what they wanted, money for border security, is, as of now, dead. They essentially traded that for a ban on Chinese ownership of TikTok.

One thing is clear: Those fuckers in the Putin Caucus couldn't negotiate a lease for a fifth-floor walkup studio apartment in the shittiest neighborhood in DC, let alone a complex legislative agenda.
