Too many Republicans, including Speaker Johnson, are simply scared to death of Donald Trump. Trump said, “Well, wait until I become president.” This will take at least a year. During this time, Ukraine may disappear,” stated Democratic leader in the Senate.

The final amount in the bill is $118 billion, which includes funds for Kyiv, for the border, aid to Israel, and other foreign policy priorities.
