Political controversy over foreign aid package and Speaker Mike Johnson's actions
Rep. Thomas Massie accuses Speaker Mike Johnson of using Democrats to pass a rule for a foreign aid package, which includes aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, as well as a TikTok bill. Conservatives criticize the move as an 'unprecedented' action by the 'Uniparty.' Sen. J.D. Vance warns that one bill in the package could limit a future Trump presidency's ability to end the conflict in Ukraine. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene also criticizes Johnson for allegedly working with Democrats.
