“House Republicans were crystal clear from the very beginning of discussions that any so-called national security supplemental legislation must recognize that national security begins at our own border,” U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson wrote on Twitter.

Deal on the table to fix everything they’re complaining about? Reject it.
Voters don’t pay attention, especially not his voters, so it’s safe for him and will help out any republican in a tight race. It’s disgusting, but tactically sound.
Exactly it. I’ve heard a couple of coworkers regurgitating this bs. It saddens me how stupid people can be.
