Well, howdy there, internet people, it's Beau again.
So today, we are going to talk about
the bipartisan aid package that's moving along in the Senate
and the response from the Speaker of the House,
the US House of Representatives.
So in short, we are going to be talking about
the continuing, seemingly never-ending clown show
that the U.S. House of Representatives has become because just wow, they are really asking their
base to believe a whole lot here. Okay, so if you missed it, you have no idea what I'm talking
about. Over in the Senate, a bipartisan group got together and they are pushing this aid package
and it's 90 billion. It's covering every cause overseas that people care about.
They put it all together. This was part of the border deal thing that the Republicans,
primarily those in the House, said they didn't want anymore. So they split it and they put the
aid package off by itself. That definitely looks like it's going to get through the Senate.
and this is this is what the speaker of the house said the Senate's foreign aid
bill is silent on the most pressing issue facing our country I mean you think
speaker. The foreign aid bill is silent on a domestic issue. I am shocked sir. So
from there he goes on to basically say we're not dealing with it because
there's not something about the border in it. Now keep in mind they were the
ones that wanted the border part taken out. So now they're just saying that
they're not going to move forward on the foreign aid package because the foreign
aid package does not address domestic issues. I mean just do without what you
will. But it's worth remembering they are saying this and the domestic issue
they're talking about is the border but initially this package had the best
border deal Republicans were ever gonna get and they decided they didn't want it
because Trump needs a campaign issue. Trump needs to scare gullible people so
he needs the border. Republicans in the House are willing to play ball and give
him that campaign issue. However, this is what just happened or what appears to be
likely to occur. Republicans in the House are going to upset pretty much everybody
by doing this. They're trying to give their presumptive nominee a campaign
issue but they are damaging their own
reelection chances... understand if you
support Ukraine you really can't
support Republicans in the House now... if
you support Israel you really can't
support Republicans in the house now... if
you support deterring China you can't
support Republicans in the House now... if
you support Palestinians
You can't support Republicans in the House now. I want you to think about this.
This is a package that is so encompassing it has money for the Israelis
and the Palestinians. It has created a situation where Republicans in the House
are simultaneously upsetting people on both sides of an issue where you would
You'd never find those people on the same side of something.
There is nine billion in humanitarian aid for Palestinians in this.
And Republicans in the House are just, eh, whatever.
Deterring Russia, whatever, I guess that's somebody else's job.
We don't need to worry about that.
We don't want to be a world leader.
Helping Ukraine?
No.
Now, we'd rather wait and send Americans to fight in that war, and that's what they're waiting for.
What the Republican Party is doing, Republicans in the House, and we need to be clear about that
because Republicans in the Senate understood the foreign policy implications of this, and
And for the most part, they put their biases aside, but Republicans in the House, they
appear unwilling to fulfill even the most basic obligations when it comes to foreign
policy.
And they want to do this because Trump needs something to run on because he doesn't have
any policy to run on. He needs scared, confused, gullible people because those are the only
people that are going to vote for him. He needs a chaotic border. He needs a border
that he can point at. He doesn't want a solution and the Republican Party in the House is willing
to help him with that at the cost of US foreign policy around the world. Now their logic behind
this is they understand that the border deal that they passed on is the best the Republican
party is going to get. They get that but they can't take it right now because if
they do they lose their reelection issue and they care more about their
reelection chances and maintaining their own power than they do their
constituents wishes. So they don't want to take that border deal now but they
They also know that if they let that foreign aid go through now, well the Democratic Party,
they may not give them that border deal again.
The Republican Party needs the leverage of the foreign aid package to get the border
deal that they've passed on.
So if they let the aid package go through, they have lost that leverage.
They are hoping to stall this, to delay this until after the election.
That's what they're hoping for.
Do you know how many people are going to be lost so they can manufacture a campaign issue?
If they're falling in line with that, they have no business being up on Capitol Hill.
Not just are they setting aside the people they are supposed to be representing in the
U.S. House of Representatives and setting aside their wishes.
Not just are they failing to fulfill their campaign promises.
Not just are they weakening national security, lives are at stake here.
And they would rather give some angry old man a campaign issue so he doesn't have to
develop any policy or platform.
Anyway it's just a thought.
Y'all have a good day.
