Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., told Newsmax on Wednesday he doesn’t see the need to rush through foreign aid bills to Ukraine and Taiwan, and questioned why the Republican-led House isn’t concentrating more on protecting America’s security.
Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who is on the hot seat within his own conference, reportedly has scheduled a weekend vote on a series of bills that include billions of dollars in foreign aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, plus bills on handing seized Russian assets over to Ukraine; a bill that would give TikTok six months to divest itself from ByteDance, a company that has ties to the Chinese Communist Party; and a border security bill.
Burchett appeared frustrated with the way Congress is being governed, especially after the Democrat-controlled Senate passed on an impeachment trial of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
