Senate Republicans Lied About Prioritizing Border Over Ukraine

17 Republicans voted to advance a $95 billion “emergency security spending bill” that included $60 billion in aid to Ukraine and billions of dollars to “Indo-Pacific allies and $10 billion in humanitarian aid for Gaza ” The bill was introduced in response to the failure of its so-called bipartisan predecessor, championed by Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell and his Oklahoma -lackey Sen. James Lankford .

Republicans have no excuse; border security is supposed to be a make-or-break issue for them.

Julian Zelizer : Republicans are in no way, shape, or form serious people about the border.

He says they are selling out on the issue of protecting America ’s borders.

Zelizer says the Senate will hold further votes to solidify foreign aid packages before the legislation gets sent to the House .
