The La. Republican says the bill needs border security measures -- after he and other Republicans rejected border security measures last week.

Gifted link should be non-paywalled (Archive.is link if desired).

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) preemptively rejected the Senate’s $95 billion national security package to aid Israel, Ukraine and other U.S. allies, saying in a statement that the package’s failure to address U.S. border security makes it a nonstarter in the House.

Of course he did. Remember, he was personally told by Jebus that he was gonna be the new Moses, or something.

I’ll believe that when he parts the Rio Grande.

Of course he also rejected the bill that did include border security. He’s just a piece of shit Trumper who will vote down any major legislation until a Republican is elected president.
