The aid going to Ukraine and Israel is in the defense budget. If you want less aid going to other countries then vote for representatives that want to cut the defense budget. Please learn how your country works. Google it's free. FYI every aid package passed the Republicans majority house of representatives .That means Republicans voted in favor of aid bills.

Then Mike Johnson said only two Democrats voted for it that's why it failed! He didn't mention the 38 republicans that didn't vote for it because Musk and Trump. Remember republicans have house majority they don't need Democrat votes. Just so you know! Trump and musk want to cut social security!! Too help offset the tax cuts for the wealthy!! The rich get richer and the people get poorer! That's the Republican way.

We need to bring back civics as a requirement every where its crazy how many people like this don't understand how our government works. Prices are high because the wealthy realize they can charge whatever they want on essentials and people have to pay for it. Its not the government driving these prices up its businesses and wealthy people that buy multiple houses and rent them out. Of the two presidential candidates one of them wants to give these people more money in the form of tax cuts and less regulation the other wanted to raise taxes on people making over 400k a year and put more regulations in place for essentials like housing and groceries. If you voted for trump you voted for this. If you voted for kamala you voted against this. Giving money and equipment to countries that need help doesn't effect grocery prices if anything it creates more buisness for us and strengthens our economy and relationships with allies.

Do not like the guy johnson,but he worked hard to get a bipartisan support to pass the bill. Compromises on both sides, which is normal. All good till billionaire musk’s tweets put a spanned in the works and the trump follows hours later the word of the de facto president elect musk. Why did they want to increase the debt ceiling ( not due to be dealt with till June) if they were suppose to be cutting down on waste in government - to give great tax cuts to the wealthy. They do not care about the average guy. Disgraceful
They gave social security retired and disabled workers an average of $37 a month COLA increase saying that was enough for them while those in congress make more money than 80% (or more) of the country. Screw your pay raise. Give the taxpayers a bridge built with safety as the first concern and not how much an insurance company will cover.
@Dddd-d4h6x: Insurance covers the modern cost of construction, which would be required to meet all current safety regulations. Give that money to an actual construction firm that's not in the pocket of the local politicians, and you'll get an amazing and safe bridge.
@brandonrobertson1696 Personally, I think anyone paid by tax dollars should be paid no more than 10% over the average income of the area they represent, including the president. If they had to live at our level of income, they'd actually work for us because our prosperity would mean prosperity for them.
Should of shut the goverment down Baltimore bridge money? come on the company was insured to pay for it! Someone needs to track that money and what its used for
I hope we all know that it doesn't matter who is in the 'top job' because this is a systemic problem -- greed. We have allowed many of our economic sectors, to take advantage of the American people. It's disgusting and frightening for the future of our country. My husband and I will be retiring in the next two years in another country. We are absolutely worried that SSI will no longer be funded. we'll have to rely on his pension, a 403 (b) and a very prolific lnvestment account with Tracy Britt Cool Consulting my FA. Our national debt is bloating and expanding every month. Our government needs to get spending under control and cut the federal budget.
I went from no money to lnvest with to busting my A** off on Uber eats for four months to raise about $20k to start trading with Tracy Britt Cool Consulting. I am at $128k right now and LOVING that you have to bring this up here
I know this FA you just mentioned too. Tracy Britt Cool is a portfolio manager and investment advisor. She gained recognition as an employee of Berkshire Hattaway; a renowned investor she is.

Great question! The Congress is supposed to be in charge of spending. AND how can Biden keep canceling student debt when The Supreme Court has ruled it unconstitutional?!
@texasgal3001 I don't understand why that had to go to the supreme court, it was common knowledge to anyone who was taught about the constitution in junior high. He doesn't have the authority, they all know it. What is still the bur under my saddle is how when they took the articles of impeachment against Mayorcas to the senate and Schumer said he'd decided it was simply a policy dispute and Lindsey Graham & assoc. said "K" and went on their way. 1. Why did they wait so long to impeach Mayorcas to begin with? 2. schumer didn't have the authority to do that. I'm 2 counties from the border, and he lied from day one. (Texan also😉)
The problem is they do. The other problem is voters like you that don't understand this new way of governing. You and I aren't included in that picture.
They really need to change some of the presidential roles. I get it, people vote in someone to make decisions, but giving away our money to other countries, especially in the billions, is LUDICROUS!!! That's OUR money and it's supposed to help AMERICANS dammit!!!
Every republican turn coat must be primaried in the next election. Mike Johnson must go. We would have been better off if the government had shut down. There needs to be a third party. The one that gives a damn about the United States of America.
A third party at this time would only provide the democrats with a one-party super majority. Best to just root out the ones who are not America First through the election process, while convincing those who want to salvage their political careers to get with the program or else.
@tomdooley4226 Then the establishment Republicans. Would have to be pushed out. You won't convert these useless politicians. They would swing back into their old form. As soon as the attention is off of them.
They should not be funding Any Country or Nation except the USA right now!! This nation is suffering n this bunch of thugs are not representing our needs!!
NOT true. In March the House passed a bill giving $190 million to fund children's cancer research. Chuck Schumer has kept it on his desk rather than bring it for a vote in the Senate.
Hey don't worry about it. Me and all of the other taxpayers will be happy to get up earlier and work more overtime to pay for it. Sorry you didn't get your pay raise.... maybe next time.
Umm. Trump appointed District Judge Sean D. Jordan struck down a DoL policy on overtime. Almost 5 million Americans will not be eligible for overtime. Who cares about no tax on OT if you are not eligible for OT?
More money for submarines and military toys. More money for other countries. The system is broken and nobody's fixing it. But, if you killed the bill you'd also have to answer to thousands of families who wouldn't receive a paycheck this Christmas. You've had decades with these problems and no Democrat or Republican has ever fixed it. Because honestly, they don't really want to. After all, they all got big raises regardless of performance so what incentive is there?
So I guess this is the American peoples Merry Christmas, sending are hard-earned tax dollars to other countries, while everyone here struggles to pay there bills, Well Biden you know where you can shove the Christmas tree on your way out.
Thank you for voting against the bill Tim. It should not have passed and I believe that your Republican colleagues will come to regret that it did. Check out your Demoncrat colleagues' videos and you will see that they are saying that they played you! You did your part, I hope you know that.

Congress shouldn't even be a paid job. It should be volunteers from their perspective states. State congress writes the ideas and a volunteer member of the state congress takes it to DC to meet with other volunteers to discuss it. Hell, I'd prefer to see no federal laws. None. The only federal government we need is for the military. No other federally funded jobs.
This video was posted LAST night, not tonight. I saw it then and was referencing it in comments, but couldn't locate it. What are y'all playing at, Forbes?
For what it’s worth, the billion dollars for Ukraine is spent here in the United States on our military industrial complex and we ship the product ( guns, drones, and mostly ammunition like artillery shells and missiles) over there. The money is spent here, creating JOBS, and thus also tax revenues. A bonus s that we then have the ability to arm our own armed forces, lessening the likelihood that we are attacked without the ability to mobilize our own defense. Complain about something else from the safety and security of our not war torn homeland.
Why send huge money to Ecuador and Ukraine when your economy is on gargantuan deficit? Giving away the money you do not have is insanity, suicidal, even. No family will survive if this is the way it runs itself.
Byron Donalds has a good nose yall! Stop this crazy bring on the new. Thank you, Mr. Burchett for talking about some details. Hope the Republicans can see the need for the public to see a bill before ANYONE votes. Merry Christmas 🎄!
I was for Bryon Donald's when we got Mike Johnson. The only reason I thought he would be good was because he's a Constitutional Lawyer. Guess, you have to be able to see thru these peoples games. This will all change as soon as Trump gets in. If if doesn't, it will be hell to pay.
That's what happens when the Congress waits until the last minute to pass a bill to fund the Gov. We get screwed every time ! They do it on purpose and then start screaming, "we had to do something to fund the Gov".....Same crap, different day !
Whether you're for or against the bill, it's strange to me that, based on what he just said, I seem to know more about what's going on than Tim Burchett. And I'm not even a politician - or an American - though I have family who are. For instance, Burchett's comment that the Dems said they wouldn't vote for the bill and then they all did, which makes no sense to him, suggests he must be sleeping through the discussions. The reason is straightforward: the Democrats initially opposed the bill because of the debt ceiling increase Trump wanted. That provision - the so-called "poison pill" - was removed by the Republicans. Once it was gone, there was no longer any reason for the Democrats to block the bill. No mystery. No suspicious behavior. Like I said, you might hate the bill, love the bill, or fall somewhere in between, but surely a politician voting on it should at least know what's going on. If Burchett didn't understand why the Democrats changed their position, that means he wasn't paying attention. And if he's not informed enough to know the basics, how is he qualified to vote? To be clear, if he'd been fully informed and still voted against it, that would have been fine. But this is his job - his responsibility. He should take the time to know what’s happening.
He said he voted against it didn't he? But my question is, couldn't he have raised the alarm with other members of his party that they were being "played" as he put it? He almost sounds as if he's powerless?? Does he now think he's playing us by making it seem like he's got our best interests at heart by saying that he still stood against passing it?? This is all very confusing and I'd imagine this is how they want it to be.
@@eoll6322 My point is not how he voted, but rather the fact that his statement shows he never bothered to actually know what was going on. He clearly did not know why the Dems were against the bill at first, and he didn't know that the reason they were against it was removed from the bill so that they no longer had a reason to be against it. In other words - he never bothered to know any details about the bill at all, he just chose to vote against it without knowing why. That is NOT doing his job - unless his joe is to obstruct everything without reason. You need to know what is in the bill before you can say you have an actual reason to vote either for or against it.
Spread the word, we will show up in the polls in greater force than when we elected Trump to oust the turncoats. This is a promise of the American people.
Sooner people realize that all of the elected officials are in on this nonsense the better. They pick and choose who plays the bad guy (vote yae) and the good guys (vote nae) on controversial legislation and it's based on whose seat is coming up for reelection.
If you feel like you got played, imagine how we feel. We work hard to earn our money, we pay our taxes and watch those tax dollars get wasted time after time. Nothing ever seems to change.

Do not like the guy johnson,but he worked hard to get a bipartisan support to pass the bill. Compromises on both sides, which is normal. All good till billionaire musk’s tweets put a spanned in the works and the trump follows hours later the word of the de facto president elect musk. Why did they want to increase the debt ceiling ( not due to be dealt with till June) if they were suppose to be cutting down on waste in government - to give great tax cuts to the wealthy. They do not care about the average guy. Disgraceful
They gave social security retired and disabled workers an average of $37 a month COLA increase saying that was enough for them while those in congress make more money than 80% (or more) of the country.
Screw your pay raise. Give the taxpayers a bridge built with safety as the first concern and not how much an insurance company will cover.
My wife's Medicare just went up 20 plus dollars so she lost money
@Dddd-d4h6x: Insurance covers the modern cost of construction, which would be required to meet all current safety regulations. Give that money to an actual construction firm that's not in the pocket of the local politicians, and you'll get an amazing and safe bridge.
And gave a billion to Ukraine and Ecuador
@brandonrobertson1696 Personally, I think anyone paid by tax dollars should be paid no more than 10% over the average income of the area they represent, including the president. If they had to live at our level of income, they'd actually work for us because our prosperity would mean prosperity for them.
There were no pay raises in this version.

The people of the United States put these traitorous pigs in power in the first place. It’s their fault.

Every funding bill we all git played and they all go to the bar afterwards and drink and dance with each other
And most likely they write all of that off on their taxes while we constantly have to scrimp and save harder all the time just for survival.
It'll be interesting to see what happens when the Republicans are in charge.
Congress throws in a pay raise for themselves?!? No one shocked by that move.
A pay raise? Hardly. It's more like theft. NO ONE deserves a 40% pay raise.
No pay raise for Congress it was taken out.
You think that's bad? It also makes it a law that allows congressmen to block investigations of congress members. Literally allows corrupt congressmen to end investigations of themselves.
I read that 40% was a lie? I'm still trying to get the truth. I downloaded the original but damn it's 1500 pages. Oy😮@@oldman-zr2ru

Great question! The Congress is supposed to be in charge of spending. AND how can Biden keep canceling student debt when The Supreme Court has ruled it unconstitutional?!
@texasgal3001 I don't understand why that had to go to the supreme court, it was common knowledge to anyone who was taught about the constitution in junior high. He doesn't have the authority, they all know it. What is still the bur under my saddle is how when they took the articles of impeachment against Mayorcas to the senate and Schumer said he'd decided it was simply a policy dispute and Lindsey Graham & assoc. said "K" and went on their way. 1. Why did they wait so long to impeach Mayorcas to begin with? 2. schumer didn't have the authority to do that. I'm 2 counties from the border, and he lied from day one. (Texan also😉)

A third party at this time would only provide the democrats with a one-party super majority. Best to just root out the ones who are not America First through the election process, while convincing those who want to salvage their political careers to get with the program or else.

You removed monies for pediatric cancer research. Shame on everyone who did that.
NOT true. In March the House passed a bill giving $190 million to fund children's cancer research. Chuck Schumer has kept it on his desk rather than bring it for a vote in the Senate.
Shameful, obsoletely shameful 😮. I guess none of them have never had to watch a child suffer from cancer ! May Lord have mercy on their souls 😮
The House passed the pediatric bill in March. It sat on Schumer's desk until they finally passed it tonight.
@ they have never lost a child to cancer.
@ will have to read about it. The house just removed pediatric cancer research today.
Hey don't worry about it. Me and all of the other taxpayers will be happy to get up earlier and work more overtime to pay for it. Sorry you didn't get your pay raise.... maybe next time.
At least they removed the bill that would have cost President Musk money with his China deals.
When Trump gets in no taxes on over time!
Umm. Trump appointed District Judge Sean D. Jordan struck down a DoL policy on overtime. Almost 5 million Americans will not be eligible for overtime. Who cares about no tax on OT if you are not eligible for OT?
Thank You Rep. Tim Burchett for trying to fix our Country. ❤️🙏🇺🇲
The One Party State Wins Again 😂😂😂 Only the People lose 🌹
More money for submarines and military toys. More money for other countries. The system is broken and nobody's fixing it. But, if you killed the bill you'd also have to answer to thousands of families who wouldn't receive a paycheck this Christmas. You've had decades with these problems and no Democrat or Republican has ever fixed it. Because honestly, they don't really want to. After all, they all got big raises regardless of performance so what incentive is there?
I think it's time for Democrats constituents and Republican constituents to come together and do what is necessary to fix this nation.
And the con goes on .
So I guess this is the American peoples Merry Christmas, sending are hard-earned tax dollars to other countries, while everyone here struggles to pay there bills, Well Biden you know where you can shove the Christmas tree on your way out.

Thank you for voting against the bill Tim. It should not have passed and I believe that your Republican colleagues will come to regret that it did. Check out your Demoncrat colleagues' videos and you will see that they are saying that they played you! You did your part, I hope you know that. Enjoy your Christmas and don't give this a second thought. It's just not worth it. We'll survive this error in judgment somehow, someway. Keep the faith brother!
Final tally vote... 366-34... All Democrats and 186 Republicans voted for the bill... 34 Republicans all voted against it... So that's 186 Republicans for, 34 Republicans against... Hmmm, says a lot.
And so the government can breath again temporarily and January 20th 2025 can't come soon enough... MAGA is coming... And no Democrat or Republican (RINO's especially) will stand in Donald Trump's way to make American's lives and their livelihood great again.
Donald Trump promised...
* Secure the border
* Deport Illegal immigrants
* Ensuring a safe and secure America
* Reduce inflation
* Cut unnecessary taxes
* Reduce national debt
* Government efficiency (DOGE)
* Energy independence
* Apply tariffs as a negotiating tool
* Rehabilitate the ineffective Health system
* Rehabilitate the WOKE educational system
* Build back the American military capabilities
* Stop wars through economic leverage and other tools
* Introduce latest technologies like AI to counter adversaries
* Work with Big Tech to develop apps to counter the chinese
* etc etc etc
Alot of work to get done in a short period of time (2 years until election of House and Senate members) and if no progress is shown Republicans may lose the House or even the Senate majority. Unfortunately, he may have to work with reasonable Democrats (Fetterman and others) who shares his vision to get some of his policies enacted to offset RINOs who will try to disrupt his every move in the House and in the Senate,
Let's MAKE IT CLEAR that the Trump Administration WILL HAVE TO SPEND money to get some of his policies enacted ... BUT ... Trump WILL OFFSET SPENDING through DOGE, energy independence, negotiable tariffs, making incentives for manufacturers to return to the US from abroad, using latest technologies to streamline business and industrial processes and procedures (DOGE?), and ensuring a rise in economic growth through incentives for small business owners (the spine of the US economy) and other businesses etc.
If the Trump Administration fails then the Democrats may rule again... So to the TRUE MAGA Americans... UNITE... and... MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
Tim is just wrong.

You people need to grow a pair…..should’ve shut it down and buckled your seat belts….The more things change the more they stay the same….seems the govermess is real comfortable with the word “Billion”…how sad…
Y’all need to stop with the CR’s and pass a budget! An all inclusive budget for the fiscal year or the calendar year, one of the other! And stop with this stop gap spending crap you all do! And you need to pass a balanced budget act! Or even a balanced budget amendment
Johnson promised that would happen. Then he changed his mind the week before Christmas. A balanced budget is a myth that will never happen.
Congress shouldn't even be a paid job. It should be volunteers from their perspective states. State congress writes the ideas and a volunteer member of the state congress takes it to DC to meet with other volunteers to discuss it. Hell, I'd prefer to see no federal laws. None. The only federal government we need is for the military. No other federally funded jobs.

They’re lazy.
For what it’s worth, the billion dollars for Ukraine is spent here in the United States on our military industrial complex and we ship the product ( guns, drones, and mostly ammunition like artillery shells and missiles) over there. The money is spent here, creating JOBS, and thus also tax revenues. A bonus s that we then have the ability to arm our own armed forces, lessening the likelihood that we are attacked without the ability to mobilize our own defense. Complain about something else from the safety and security of our not war torn homeland.
and I'm supposed to pay taxes on the 40k I scraped together this year.
I hope you got your 40 percent pay raise. Wouldn't want to see you struggle like someone on SSI.
What about the 8 Billion dollars for a new DC Football Stadium? Are we taxpayers now on the hook for all sports multiplexes?
The short answer is, yes…
got throwned out,its not in the spending bill
Why send huge money to Ecuador and Ukraine when your economy is on gargantuan deficit? Giving away the money you do not have is insanity, suicidal, even. No family will survive if this is the way it runs itself.
Money to Ecuador is to gain a guarantee that they will refuse Ecuadorian deportees from the Trump admin. It's sabotage.

A lot of the money goes in the crooks pockets!
Gotta get those dollars laundered....
Trump will take care of Johnson
Whether you're for or against the bill, it's strange to me that, based on what he just said, I seem to know more about what's going on than Tim Burchett. And I'm not even a politician - or an American - though I have family who are.
For instance, Burchett's comment that the Dems said they wouldn't vote for the bill and then they all did, which makes no sense to him, suggests he must be sleeping through the discussions. The reason is straightforward: the Democrats initially opposed the bill because of the debt ceiling increase Trump wanted. That provision - the so-called "poison pill" - was removed by the Republicans. Once it was gone, there was no longer any reason for the Democrats to block the bill. No mystery. No suspicious behavior.
Like I said, you might hate the bill, love the bill, or fall somewhere in between, but surely a politician voting on it should at least know what's going on. If Burchett didn't understand why the Democrats changed their position, that means he wasn't paying attention. And if he's not informed enough to know the basics, how is he qualified to vote?
To be clear, if he'd been fully informed and still voted against it, that would have been fine. But this is his job - his responsibility. He should take the time to know what’s happening.
He said he voted against it didn't he? But my question is, couldn't he have raised the alarm with other members of his party that they were being "played" as he put it? He almost sounds as if he's powerless?? Does he now think he's playing us by making it seem like he's got our best interests at heart by saying that he still stood against passing it?? This is all very confusing and I'd imagine this is how they want it to be.
@@eoll6322 My point is not how he voted, but rather the fact that his statement shows he never bothered to actually know what was going on. He clearly did not know why the Dems were against the bill at first, and he didn't know that the reason they were against it was removed from the bill so that they no longer had a reason to be against it.
In other words - he never bothered to know any details about the bill at all, he just chose to vote against it without knowing why. That is NOT doing his job - unless his joe is to obstruct everything without reason. You need to know what is in the bill before you can say you have an actual reason to vote either for or against it.
Pants down yet again.
And you all are gonna keep getting played
Spread the word, we will show up in the polls in greater force than when we elected Trump to oust the turncoats. This is a promise of the American people.
Did they give themselves a big raise?
It’s. Because. He gives it to these countries and then they just funnel it into his bank account
Johnson was responsible for allowing the bill in the first place.... need a new speaker
Sooner people realize that all of the elected officials are in on this nonsense the better. They pick and choose who plays the bad guy (vote yae) and the good guys (vote nae) on controversial legislation and it's based on whose seat is coming up for reelection.
Nothing went wrong. Blue, RED, its just all a big game and theatrics on both sides. We the people are being played with.
