the entire country has decisively turned against him whether we are talking about kansas or ohio or pennsylvania or florida so they cannot talk about that so it is just immigration. he also has russia breathing down his neck because vladimir putin does not want 60 million going to the people of ukraine so really what he is pursuing is a autocrats agenda and it is amazing to see the republicans in the house following him like lemmings. >> today you had republican congressman mike saying this before criticizing the biden administration for not projecting strength amid the ongoing conflicts in ukraine in his words. >> the world is on fire and history will judge us by our actions. were you chamberland or churchill? >> how seriously can you take them when that is their posturing and yet their own caucus cannot coalesce around a foreign aid bill? >> i think that was really directed at mike johnson, not biden who has been doing everything in his power to dislodge the foreign aid package he sent several months ago but it is mike johnson who has fallen captive to the pro- russian wing of the party which
