President Joe Biden signed off on funding for Ukraine to continue its war against Russia, declaring it a “good day for world peace” – a statement that would make George Orwell shake his head. Biden hails the move as a step to make America and the world safer, continuing America’s leadership in the world. The Senate approved the foreign aid package, and Biden wasted no time in putting his signature on the legislation to start sending weapons and equipment to Ukraine.
The House paved the way for this aid by passing the legislation to the Senate, a move facilitated by House Speaker Mike Johnson, who unfortunately allowed Democrats to take control and push Biden’s war priorities forward. This Democratic win highlighted the reluctance of some Republicans to stand up for conservative policies favored by their base, as Democrats seem to flex their power without hesitation.
I miss the Trump term when he started no wars, didn't engage in money laundering, and brokered peace deals in the Middle East. #TRUMP2024ToSaveAmerica#Trump2024TheOnlyChoice

For Biden, this is a win he can use to boast about his legislative successes, including reauthorizing the controversial Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), subsidizing the Ukraine war, avoiding impeachment, maintaining spending levels, and losing control of the GOP House. This success offers some hope for Biden, as he faces low polling numbers, age concerns, Democrat opposition over the Israel/Hamas conflict, and low enthusiasm.
