  • The backlash was fierce. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the outspoken Georgia congresswoman, immediately filed a resolution demanding Johnson’s removal, called the bill a “sham”.

    “I don’t care if the speaker’s office becomes a revolving door,” Taylor Greene told Steve Bannon, Trump’s former adviser, on his War Room channel. “The days are over of the old Republican party that wants to fund foreign wars and murder people in foreign lands while they stab the American people in their face and refuse to protect Americans and fix our problems.”

    Good ol’ Marjorie being a Russian asset again.

    • Not defending MTG here, because she's a piece of garbage, but being anti-war does not mean one supports the enemy. I oppose the war and couldn't care less about Russia.

      People said this same shit about us when we opposed the Iraq War, at the time calling us 'terrorists' or 'terrorist sympathizers' or 'traitors'.

      But our position was the correct one, and if Republicans and Democrats all weren't electing and reelecting the people that rope us into nine wars at once, there would be more than enough money for war (at least, wars that are actually necessary) without going further into astronomical debt.

  • There's always money for more war.

    Always.
