Democrats warn Mike Johnson: Don’t play us on foreign aid

House Democrats are warning Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) that not including humanitarian aid in his foreign aid package could poison it for their side, Axios reports.

Said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.): “There is no circumstance that we could support anything that does not include humanitarian aid"

dwemthy,

“It’s okay,” said the scorpion “we’ll pass the aid in a separate bill.”

How much do you wanna bet that they’re still counting bombs for the Israeli government to commit genocide with as must-pass aid?

Before you reply, allow me to remind you how Jeffries’ own bread is buttered:

The US doesn’t care about humanitarian aid, they just want to keep funneling money to the MIC.

    Sry, the second paragraph was indeed unneeded.

    anticolonialist,

    The US does nothing without strings attached. If it weren’t for all those strings, other countries wouldn’t need foreign aid.

    Nonsense… you act as if the whole world would be a hippy paradise if it weren’t for the evil colonial powers.

    The amount of savagery people bestow on one another for reasons sometimes not even know to the purpotrators is mind boggling.
