This is some pretty sophisticated money laundering

Editor's note: The US Speaker of the House Mike Johnson "issued an ultimatum to the Biden administration setting conditions for approving any more money" for the fascist regime in Kiev that continue their terror attacks and assassinations of Russian targets and Ukrainian dissidents against the regime in Kiev. It appears that most of the funding of the criminals in Kiev is laundered back into the US that is financially benefitting insiders in Washington and the US military-industrial complex. That means the war contractors with access to the Pentagon are not going to be too happy about republicans cutting funds off to Ukraine. This is of course after the fascists in Kiev take their cut. Ukraine is really about the US industrial base being revitalized at the expense of over 400,000 dead, missing and injured Ukrainian soldiers. What are the actual conditions that the US Speaker of the House Mike Johnson wants to implement? Apparently, the Jewish Schumer in the US senate doesn't agree with Rep. Thomas Massie's opinion concerning Israel likely related to funding.

Getting the Republican-majority House of Representatives to approve additional funding for Ukraine would require first securing the US border with Mexico as part of the deal, Speaker Mike Johnson told the White House on Tuesday.

The Louisiana Republican was responding to Monday's public letter from Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Shalanda Young, who warned that the US was "out of money—and nearly out of time" in terms of aid to Ukraine and Israel. Young argued that cutting off US aid would "kneecap Ukraine on the battlefield" and increase the "likelihood of Russian military victories."

Johnson first addressed Israel, noting that the House had approved the Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act (HR 6126) on November 2, but that Democrats who control the Senate "voted to block consideration of the bill."

As for Ukraine, Johnson wrote, the Republican position has remained unchanged since his meeting with Young and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan on October 26, when he laid out "two essential prerequisites: security at our border, and critical answers regarding the funds requested."

Six days prior, President Joe Biden had announced the proposal to bundle the funding for Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan and immigration and border enforcement in a $106 billion package, of which about $60 billion would go to Kiev.

Additional funding for Ukraine is "dependent upon enactment of transformative change to our nation's border security laws," Johnson wrote on Tuesday. The House passed the Secure the Border Act of 2023 (HR 2), "more than six months ago," he noted, but the Senate Democrats have "refused to act" on it.

Pointing to over 6.5 million "illegal alien encounters" along the southern US border since Biden took office, of which 294 involved people "on the terrorist watchlist," Johnson called the situation "an unconscionable and unsustainable catastrophe."
