“It’s time for Washington to start showing love to the American people,” House Speaker Mike Johnson told the media on Valentine’s Day. And it came a day after the House impeached President Joe Biden’s border chief.
Johnson said Wednesday that Democrats and some Republicans are not listening to the American people, adding:
They are crying out for the Biden administration to secure the border. This is not a Republican issue. It’s each person’s problem and everyone knows it.
We all know stories of children being poisoned with fentanyl.City [are] overwhelmed by the rapid increase in immigration. House Republicans have shown that we are listening to our government and holding them accountable for this catastrophe. We are listening to the people and taking action to hold Mr. Biden accountable.

Chairman Johnson: “The Republican-led House has blocked or forced passage of a foreign aid bill that most Republican senators oppose and that does nothing to protect our nation’s borders.” It’s not going to happen.

Johnson spoke a day after 22 Republican senators joined with Democrats to pass a bill that would provide $60 billion for the territorial war between Ukraine and Russia and $10 billion for immigration.
[Senate GOP leader] senator [Mitch] McConnell and I have talked about this in candid meetings, but let me be clear again this morning: House Republicans have not blocked passage of a foreign aid bill that was opposed by a majority of Republican senators and representatives. , they have no intention of forcing passage. Nothing will be done to protect our borders.
It’s time for Washington to start showing love to the American people. Valentine’s Day is the perfect day to point this out.
