"Johnson Pushes Forward with Aid Bills for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan Amid GOP Pressure"

Speaker Mike Johnson faces pressure from hardline Republicans over his decision to move forward with a series of foreign aid bills, including funding for Ukraine, despite demands to include a border security measure. The bills, which also include aid for Israel and the Indo-Pacific, are set to be voted on Saturday. Johnson's decision has sparked intense backlash from conservative members, with some threatening to oust him from the speakership. House Democrats are divided over whether to support Johnson in the event of a motion to vacate, with potential implications for the party's unity and legislative agenda.
