Satchmo Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 It ain't over till it's over, but it's at least getting closer to the finish line... Senate Poised to Advance Ukraine Bill as G.O.P. Splinters Pressure from hard-liners, including former President Donald J. Trump, has not swayed a coalition of Republican senators that has broken with the party to back the bill. A bipartisan coalition of senators was on track Monday to push a $95 billion foreign aid package to the brink of passage, as Republicans fractured bitterly over the bill. Over the past week, 18 Republicans have rallied around the legislation, helping to advance it through the Senate despite the full-throated opposition of the bulk of G.O.P. senators, Republican leaders in the House and the party’s likely presidential nominee, Donald J. Trump. But the pressure appeared to have backfired, at least partially, in the Senate, where by Monday, more than a third of Republicans had cast multiple votes to keep the aid bill moving forward — and their coalition appeared to be holding firm. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/12/us/politics/senate-ukraine-aid.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(please correct me if you know otherwise). I think it has a chance, that's only 4 Republicans that need to vote for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only remaining question is will Trump and the house MAGAs be able to derail it. They are trying do so but (so far) have not succeeded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentSam Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Musk has to go .. he is positioning himself as the one after Trump to create more chaos, and is aligning himself with MAGA , having full ownership of an already “propoganda “ machine.

I.Am.Ironman Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 What I don't understand is why is US giving 14B to Israel? They are wiping the floor with Hamas. I don't see them needing any significant help? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
