This is real. This is the actual letter, republican speaker Mike Johnson has sent to the Biden administration saying, he will not send aid to Ukraine, before the funds run out at New Years, unless Joe Biden magically solves the problems of illegal immigration and Mexican drug cartels.

These are problems which have existed for decades — under Reagan even. Now he wants them solved before Christmas, or there will be no aid.

The entire Kremlin must be laughing and dancing in celebration.

@randahl This is madness! Yes, a two-party system is better than a one-party system, but what kind of democracy is this where one person alone decides what’s on the agenda and can thereby block everything? How can this even be? — Rubbing my eyes in disbelief… 🤦‍♂️
