Congrats everyone, your Republican House majority just voted for:
• More warrantless spying on Americans
• More taxpayer funded abortion trips
• More taxpayer funded sex changes
• More $$$ for UkraineTotal betrayal. With Republicans like these, who needs Democrats? Lunacy. pic.twitter.com/WU5rY7aDrN

In his defence . he represents less than Half of Half of the House
So on this vote he has NO influence at all
It is the whole Millitary Budget …no way they can recess without funding the Millitary ..
Over half of the Republicans are Rinos ( controlled by neocons) so they were always going to vote for this bill
Also the Democrats were split ..a good chunk of them votted Nay.
In their view it wasn’t woke enough.
IMHO Johnson knew the Bill would pass so he supported it as is.
Politics is a devious and wicked game of give and take.
Where he DID have influence was regading Impeachment and he won that one unanimously ….he had to have virtually ALL of his causus on board for that.
I am sure there were holdouts who demanded he support this Military funding to vote for Impeachment hearings.
Shall see what comes next. But they have recessed now until ’24 without funding Ukraine and Israel wars
Good job, Fully.
Horse trading and take what you can get.
Perfection is the enemy of Good. (Or at least, better than nothing.)
SB — give me your preferred choice, and THEN TELL ME HOW HE/SHE gets 220 votes from this congress? We all have folks we’d rather have in there, but they ain’t gonna ever win as things are today. And that’s on We The People as well as the system for putting them there.
Its the MIC lobbyists that control the board.
