Sen. Chuck Schumer: 'We Gotta Do Ukraine Now'… Other Issues Like The Border… 'Not Now'

Sen. Chuck Schumer also said that January 6 was as bad as Pearl Harbor, so the guy is prone to exaggeration. There was a meeting in the Oval Office today including the leaders of the Democrat and Republican Parties, and Schumer says it was "one of the most intense" he's ever encountered. -- Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer: “The meeting in the Oval Office was one of the most intense I’ve ever encountered. We said to Speaker Johnson that if he shrinks from the need to pass the Senate's bipartisan national security bill in the House—it'd be the greatest gift Putin could ask from the American Congress.”

The House is not going to pass the Senate's crappy "bipartisan national security bill." Its purpose is to send another $60 billion to Ukraine, but Schumer allowed there to be tacked on $20 billion to secure the country's border. If the bill actually did secure the border, it would breeze through the House. Rep. Byron Donalds reminded Schumer that the House sent him a border security bill 292 days ago. -- Congressman Byron Donalds @RepDonaldsPress: “HR 2 has been sitting on Schumer's desk for 292 days. Biden could've reversed his open borders exec actions any day over the past 3yrs. We're overrun with MILLIONS of unvetted illegals & Americans are getting killed. Secure our border FIRST. The time is NOW to put AMERICA FIRST.”

But Putin! If Putin successfully invades Ukraine he's going to move on a NATO member next and the United States will have to get involved. Intense! -- msnatalie @realmsnatalie: “Threatening people doesn’t work anymore.” -- Colonel Angus @tomhayes83: “Close the border or SHUT IT DOWN!!!” -- It's a bad bill. If it closed the border in any meaningful way the House might consider it. Did you ask Biden why he's so opposed to closing the border, even if it puts funding for his precious Ukraine in jeopardy?
