When a faction of MAGA Republicans blocks aid to Ukraine, the responsibility rightly lies on the growth of the party’s isolationist faction. When a small number (~20) of left-wing House Dems threaten to block aid to Israel (scuttling Ukraine aid too), it’s … BIBI’s fault?!
@JoshKraushaar we are not isolationists, eventually we would like to help. But read it slowly so it sinks in. ~~~~~~~~~~~AMERICA 1ST!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ once our debt is down and services are funded then we will consider foreign aid again.
@JoshKraushaar One is/has been committing war crimes.
@JoshKraushaar How are 20 Democrats material here, surely the vast swathe of Republicans support Ukraine nad Israel?
@JoshKraushaar How would 20 members of the minority party block anything? Both lie with Johnson.
@JoshKraushaar @mattdizwhitlock Then start making your case that the spending is justified to fellow colleagues. It's not 2003 anymore where you're automatically given the benefit of the doubt. That era is over. I have no problem with factions using their voting muscle to block foreign aid to Ukraine.
@JoshKraushaar 40 Democrats
@JoshKraushaar Down playing the pro Russian faction as small is the GOP is wild It’s a main issue for GOP primary voters
@JoshKraushaar Just because we don't want to fund every war forever, doesn't make us isolationists. 🙄
@JoshKraushaar No, the responsibility lies with House leadership, who are blocking a vote. As you well know.
