- At a rare Saturday session, the House passed funding bills to send aid to Ukraine, Israel, Gaza and Taiwan. It also passed a bill that could lead to a ban of TikTok. Despite strong bipartisan support for each, the votes could pave the way for a showdown over Mike Johnson’s future as Speaker of the House. NBC News’ Julie Tsirkin has more.

Wonder what $60B to americans would've felt like?
It would be nice.
Doritos
Sadly we'll never know.....🫠
Most of the money creates jobs for Americans, for instance we don't send money we send arms that are manufactured. It creates lots of jobs and stimulates the economy. Also, we send our old stockpile before we send anything new. You people should not think so narrowly. You fall for the agitprop and lies too easily.
The majority of the money would have gone to infrastructure projects.
AMERICAN TAXPAYERS VS. ISRAEL
Nearly 3 million taxpayers must work full time for a year to pay their taxes to send to Israel. Israel has free healthcare and education. Think about that.
Total Israeli Aid: $26 billion:
1. Average Taxes paid a year per American Citizen: $10,000 per taxpayer
2. Number of American Citizens Needed: Approx. 2.6 million
Just how many people is that? Imagine the entire population of:
• Houston, Texas, with its 2.3 million
• Phoenix, Arizona, with its 1.7 million
11 million reasons that Biden is going to defeat the taxpayers and they all came from AIPAC.
US Congress is Israeli occupied territory
this is not even half correct, the money israel gets is used to purchase american weapons which bring the money back to the economy and creating more jobs in the defense sector
Can you protest?
We need to stop paying taxes see how many of us jail! Can’t put all of us in jail….they have no room!
I think the Democrats will save his butt. Of course they will get some kind of concession. Also there maybe one more Republican resigning in the house. 😊
Georgia deserve better than Moscow Marge
they voted her in. to get her out of the PTA>
Why is she so beholden to Putin and his cronies?
@@vladlock she has no one in her life. that is why they voted for her. to get her finally out of that town. and they could have some peace.
What a novel idea. When they work together they can get stuff done. 😏
Let it go! There is life after tiktok😒
200 dems and 100 reps voted with mikie. seems MTG dont have the numbers any more. just her loud mouth. which no one is listening to any more.
How did the United States go from 3 trillion dollars in debt in the early 1990s to 33 trillion in 2024????😅😅😅😅😅
12 trillion was added in Trump's term alone.
@@Amyamy001 that's 100% false
@@bumbo9622 Correct it was only 8 trillion in 4 years that was a record for any President but hey billionaires got massive tax breaks.
@Amyamy001 because covid. Businesses should never have been shut down and stimulus checks.l should never have been passed. 5 trillion wasted was all thanks the covid fear mongers.
Politicians don't really want the debt to stay down. They have a system. The inflation the debt causes deflates the debt and the people at the top actually get richer. It only hurts the common person. That's either side, too, not just a Democrat or Republican thing. They count on the fact that the majority of people don't understand how it works, so they can keep scamming. Watch some Ray Dalio videos. He explains it very well.
Do better Georgia, Vote MTG out
Not a chance. She prefers to secure our borders before securing other countries borders. She makes more sense then others
@@kbram7363 so why was she against the previous border bill?
the poorly educated LOVE HER.
@@kbram7363 Why then didn't she agree to the BIPARTISAN bill on the border? She is totally a hypocrite, and a sucker of Trump.
@@theboringchannel2027 You are correct! The district she represents is in the very north of Georgia. It is a mountain district and they are mostly under educated.
It's a good thing we're not 33 trillion dollars in debt so we can give free money to so many countries around the world!😂😂😂😂😂😊😊😊
We did the same thing during WWI, WWII, Vietnam War… so this is literally nothing new. We have done it for decades.
@bumbo9622 • The debt certainly makes you wonder why Republicans keep passing tax cuts but don't cut spending. Ever since President Reagan, the parties have switched their economic strategies.
Under Democrat Presidents Clinton & Biden, the deficit has been cut. Under Republican Presidents Bush & Trump, the deficit has increased by trillions of dollars. Unfortunately, too many voters still listen to the boomers who grew up with big spending Democrats. If more Americans would do their homework, they would realize the Republicans are the big spenders. They talk fiscal conservatism, but they don't budget that way.
@@aviatorsound914 were we trillions of dollars in debt in the 1920s, 40's, and 60's? The answer is NO. We were much better off financially as a country back then.
@@aviatorsound914no tf we did not… when the US is at war, we embargo foreign aid.
Trump racked up 12 trillion of that during his term.
Vote all of them out
Nope I don't support Russia maybe you should go live there and support your boy Putin as I see he needs fresh meat for his war.
Who cares about tiktok, common
"Queen Marjorie" thought she could bully Speaker Johnson into bowing to her will. Her demand to oust Johnson out of the Speaker position was merely a bluff that failed.
We need to stop paying taxes! Period!
Moscow laser lady will lose
So wierd america has prople in congress like green 😅
She is from rural Georgia where inbreeding within families is very common so what do you expect?
i have a feeling the Chinese might want cash out.
Cash out of what? Even if they are forced to divest TikTok, they're not turning over the proprietary algorithms.
Benedict Johnson and the war conspiracy theorists.
IT IS ABOUT TIME
Why are you happy about the TikTok ban out of curiosity
Supporting Ukraine could cost Johnson's his speaker's job....or save it.
I may be mistaken, but wasn’t foreign aid for the year 2024 already passed in 2023 when they enacted the defense authorization act for 2024?
No, the last of the supplemental aid ran out 6 months ago.
Look at that scream!!! I would be happy and cheerful too to know those money will soon lend in my pocket!!! When will people understand that these money only tiny amount go to Ukraine war the rest lends in everyone else’s pockets that profit from this war!!!
All these people in the comments don’t even know why they want TikTok banned. They hear one thing the trustworthy government tells you and runs with it.
Go live in China since you support communism so much that you are willing to betray your country over some stupid app owned and controlled by the communist regime.
Yup
I care more about my ever growing grocery prices than a stupid social media app I dont use.
@@gggamer3851well I would say my comment doesn’t apply to people who don’t care either way
oh my Tik Tok :)
Which USA billionaires will benefit from Tic TOC having to sell it to USA.
Better in the hands of the USA than china
Someone who will benefit this administration. Someone corrupt I'm sure
so you prefer for CHINA to benefit instead of an American?
Are you saying that the PRC should control the algorithm instead?
It does not matter who controls the algorithm. A decent hacker can gather the same data. Our American apps are collecting the same data.
🙏🏽
I wonder how much hes making on this deal .. criminal
More debt and more inflation coming
Lol MTG is mad 🤣
There goes our Tax Dollars again. Looks like the US loves to give Billions away. We need a change in the USA. Why can’t we the people vote to approve or disapprove this give away. 😢
@MrRicardo8614 • It sounds like you want a national referendum on spending items, although it's not clear how many and how you would determine which items require a referendum and which don't.
I myself am satisfied with the representative government. The problem with democracy is that you don't always get your own way.
The underlying assumption of your comment is that the majority of Americans would not vote for these bills. Given the wide margin that the bills were passed by, I think that's unlikely. These representatives want to be re-elected, so they probably voted in line with what their constituents were telling them. The votes also match the polling data.
we give them old military equipment mostly, not actual money.
@@ninod1502 they would vote to give america to russia if their cult leader told them.
@@theboringchannel2027false. I was a pmc in Israel and they get gear I never even saw when I was in the us military.
@@SpaceGringos3D Israel has its own large industrial millitary complex that produces weapons, likely what you saw.
I also was taking about UKRAINE, not Israel.
Very easy to verify what I said is factual, go do some actual research and turn off fox news and MTG.
omg thats unbelievable. We are paying for Ukraines Pensions! that is crazy. Many people in US don't even get pensions and yet we pay for Europeans to get govt pensions. Thats just crazy. 2024 the year that became unreal
Voting everyone of my Reps and Senators out!!!!
Everyone need to just vote libertarian instead of the uniparty.
Usa is fkd. Welcome digital currency.
Hamas still exists?
OMG cannibals ate my uncle too. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
YUGE WIN for marge and sleepy don.
*There's hope again!* Thank you ❤America❤. Best regards from Germany.
Who is gonna pay for this?
@@tonyraissa864Mexico! Hahaha
@@ajevanjegathisan8675 , this is sad
@@tonyraissa864 The same people who pay for the corporate welfare in this country. Taxpayers. I'd rather my tax dollars go to Ukraine than to Exxon Mobile.
Fight your own wars sign America
Yall can thank the democratic voters.
Yahtzee!!!
Bipartisan means uniparty.
No help for our country at all.
Finally ✊️💪🇺🇸 !
About time
Personally, i wouldn't have voted for Aid to Israel, unless the resignation of bebe netanyahoo had to precede anything!
Remove crazy majorieTaylorGreene
Thats a shame Ukraine doesn't need any more of our tax money. How about our boarders?
Talk to your republican representatives who have continually stopped funding to deal with border issues, do your research before spreading misinformation
@@joancooney7724 THAT ORANGE KOOLAID EATS THEIR BRAIN CELLS
What about the Border. Republicans killed the last Border Bill under Trumps orders. You know the Bill they helped create. Maybe you should ask the Republican 🤡🤡
we give them old military equipment mostly, not actual money.
Funding for the southern border was part of the bipartisan Senate bill with funding for Ukraine, Israel, and the Indo-Pacific. That bill had funding for more border patrol, more vehicle scanners, more asylum judges as well as restrictions on asylum claims.
Speaker Johnson refused to bring that bill to the House floor for an up or down vote.
Reports are that Johnson held the bill up at the request of candidate Trump, who wants to campaign on that issue. Supposedly, Trump didn't want the House to give Biden a "win" on the border issue.
Thoughts and prayers for all the Russians in the U.S. Congress.
Ban facebook next
Last time I check, Facebook is own by Mark Zuckerberg and he's American.
Won't happen, the F.B.I. uses their data base.
And Twitter now x.
Get rid of tik tok
Ban tiktok!!!!
Proud to be an American because The Ukraine Aid today
dont make it easy for hacker states to use our info to hack our other apps!
Hi
Its 95 Billion for war, while in the Usa people are distracted fighting agiants each other for pennys (compared to 95 billions) they are against loan forgiveness for their OWN people, and so much hate for any help working new imigrants are getting in this country and now they sent Billions OUT to the Israelis and Uckraine.....
Galatians 5 verse 1
Today the house is on fire 🎉🎉
Awe no tic toc 😂, so what get a life a real job people
the laser lady should just put the motion to vacate to a vote. she will quickly learn she does not have the vote. now there is this problem for the gop cos the Democrats may decide not to help Mike Johnson cos now they have the aid package and may decide to let the whole world know the gop cannot govern...blessings to all
American Eagle finally opened his eyes and spread his wings. Time for axis of evil to be put in their place.
Ukraine aid should be uncapped, why only 60 billion?
Why 60 billion. Not our fight not our problem
@@buddb7804 yes it is. And educate yourself, we don't send cash, the money creates US jobs and stimulates our economy. Keeping our allies safe keeps us safe.
Give America some money sometimes. Tax breaks are a $5 off coupon after you spend $60 nowadays.
@@Amyamy001 lol no it don't
Next I’m going to tax throw me in jail just Mohammed Ali.😮
You did not do your Job Johnson ..all you did was cave to the Corrupt Democrats 😡
Saving millions if not billions of lives the hard way. If only Putin had listened before the full invasion, the West said he was going to invade and they denied it, or to put it another way "Hey don't jump in the quicksand Russia" "No we won't, of course not. Why think that?" Russia jumps into the quicksand, World facepalms.

@@buddb7804 Trump24? His IQ? Too generous surely.
@@milesnixon9554 surely you dumb
Great news for Ukraine. Great news on Tik Tok. It's mostly trash that my grandkids were addicted and spent way to much time. Wasted time 👍👍👍
Great news for you grandkids not being able to afford rent. Not being able to buy groceries. Wasted money 👍👍👍
I am going to laugh when your grandkids start creating digital content and make more money than we ever did. My college students were creating content and making more than a full professor does.
Republicans REAGAN👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷💪💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸
USA military. Complex when can I get the money 💰
Good bye tik tok
Thank you Republicans for your continued support for Putin
Rather him than ukraine
I just want my 159k
