After six months of struggles, the U.S. legislature under talker Mike Johnson (R-LA) voted 311 to 112 relief package $95.3 billion directed to abroad countries of which $60.8 billion for Ukraine, for Israel $26.4 billion and the Indo-Pacific area (Taiwan) $8.1 billion. Ukraine will receive $23 billion in military aid (completion of ammunition) and $14 trillion in fresh weapons systems. By utilizing 210 (all) Democrats and 101 Republicans, 112 Republicans were against. This was Saturday, and on Tuesday, Democratic leader Chuck Schumer will put the package to the legislature vote, where he will be voted without surprises and will be signed without hold by president Biden.
America has already provided Ukraine with $111 billion aid, Republican Senator J.D. Vance has discovered that Biden's administration has donated $125 billion to aid Ukraine, which is $14 billion more than legislature granted it, so together it will be $185 billion.
Previously, the aid granted to Ukraine meant an additional cost of $900 for all American household, but politicians are not interested. Many Polish commentators advance thesis with large influence on the American leaders of the Polish president Dr. Andrzej Duda. The president most likely helped the Republican organization leaders support the aid package for Ukraine with his lobbying. However, as I will explain below, this problem is more complex.
A survey by the Heritage Foundation revealed that 56% of Americans in swing states, very crucial in the presidential election believes the US has already given Ukraine besides much help. Only 12% of respondents believe that Ukraine needs to be given even more. Critics point out that this aid incriminates the portfolios of average American taxpayers: “We borrow on credit cards to give for free”. Hence the change in Trump's attitude, which agreed to the aid package for Ukraine, but in the form of a debt that could be donated but not another donation. The Conservatives have for 2 years pointed out the corrupt nature of the Ukrainian government and the deficiency of transparency and the ability to verify where and what the aid money goes (The Hill), likewise with the weapon being sent.
Aid opponents emphasize that America is already in debt with $35 trillion (American trillion) and in order to proceed to operate it must borrow $1 trillion (American trillion) all 100 days! The debt instalments for home acquisition climbed to 7%. The prices of food, insurance, housing and fuel rental are now as much as 30-40% higher than erstwhile Trump left the presidency. Crime is increasing, about 10 million undocumented people from 120 countries have entered the country illegally for Biden's presidency. Therefore, the American patriots demanded that the aid package for Ukraine's defence be linked to measures to defend their own border. They remind me that Zelenski threw out the Minister of defence for corruption and scams. But no of this, Democrats and Republican neocons dream of planet conquests and planet transformation into 1 large strictly controlled collective...
Critics indicate that Biden did not present a coherent strategy to the Americans, or a triumph plan, or setting conditions for achieving peace in the war in Ukraine and people lose patience in supporting a devastating war without purpose. I remember that the population of Ukraine was 52 million around 1992, now estimated at 28-30 million. The question arises as to whether the intent of this war is to depopulate Ukraine? Further financing of this war, especially in the context of the emerging financial crisis felt by voters, will consequence in an increase in the action of the conservative patriotic wing of Republicans.
Commentators noted that the announcer Mike Johnson he underwent a large change, many organization conservative colleagues even accuse him of treason, surrendering to “Deep State” and Biden's leftist faction. It just so happens that Republicans have no luck with their leaders as in the legislature (opportunist Mitch McConnell) as in a series of congressional leaders like John Boehner, Paul Ryan, Kevin McCarthy and now Mike Johnson. Mike was considered a tough confederate Conservative and a hot Trump supporter (“MAGA Mike!”). According to the conservative classification Heritage Action, his conservatism was assessed for 90%!, now he fell to 53%. Let us add that Conservative Johnson has always voted against frivolous socialist programs, as well as previously against admission $113 billions of aid from Ukraine.
Observers note that in the erstwhile “incarnation” Johnson made completely different decisions that contradicted his decisions since he became the talker of Congress. Recently, he pushed through a large budget backing most of Democrats' wishes including full backing from the Justice Department and the FBI that attack Trump and his supporters. Let us remind you that most Republicans are against it, so Johnson “brothered” with Democrats enters thin ice. It occurred that Conservative Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) announced the filing of a motion to remove Johnson from the Speaker's post. Congressman on X:
“Mike Johnson betrayed America again. After he did nothing to safe the confederate border, he authorized the FISA program to spy on Americans without having to get a court order, full subsidized Biden's Justice Department, who set Trump 91 charges and gave the political Gestapo Biden a fresh headquarters, larger than the Pentagon building.”
If we follow the vote in legislature to grant aid Ukraine will announcement that 2 years ago, with the grant of $40 billion of aid voted 368-57 (then Johnson was against). On Saturday, $61 billion of aid to Ukraine has already passed only 311-112. Mike Johnson explained the motivation of his actions for Newsmax:
“I think it is better to send ammunition to Ukraine than American soldiers” (...) I believe Vladimir Putin will proceed his march through Europe if we let him to. I think he can then hit the Balkans. I think it may endanger Poland or another our allies”
Mike Johnson seems to have confused the Baltic Sea with the Balkans, but at least he's starting to realize geography. shortly he will have problem with members of the patriotic, conservative wing of Congress, who cannot forgive him for breaking his own promise not to distribute funds allocated to defend his own borders from aid to Ukraine. He had previously resisted the democrats saying that logically first Americans must safe their own borders, against securing the borders of states that most Americans cannot find on the map.
Bitter president National Border Patrol Council Brandon Judd:
“We are highly disappointed that legislature will vote on an aid package to safe the borders of abroad states without offering anything to Border Patrol (Border Guard) to safe our own borders"
As we know, the seat point changes everything. We Poles from past know the “boundless” love of the Russian rulers to the surrounding states spoken with the mouth of Tsar Alexander I:
“Kurica not a bird, Polish not a foreigner”
We're taking a train where drivers with different ideas about how and where to get to start to annoy us and endanger our safety...
