It would have been better, however, if Johnson had come to this realization and shown such support for Ukraine months ago, before Russia stepped up its air attacks and ground offensive. Think of the lives that could have been saved, the territory that might not have been lost.

The House is closer than it has been in months to approving additional military aid for Ukraine.

But much could happen over the next several days to derail a funding package. Here's the latest on where Ukraine aid stands:

Israel has hit directly tonight, launching what appears to be an attack that includes drones, missiles, and possibly air strikes.

Also coordinated with strikes on Iranian allies in Syria and Iraq.

Just took a few minutes to read North Korea tankie twitter, a good reminder that the tiniest and most absurd subcultures can make themselves feel as if they're a majority on Twitter

My read of Johnson's choice is that, if bad internal politics are coming either way, he wants to see if the minority will violate their current norms first (around carrying a rule in committee/on the floor) before he violates the majority's (by implicitly blessing discharge).

Neil Cavuto: It was your GOP colleagues who didn't get the facts right that torpedoed your border bill, not Democrats.

Sen. James Lankford: It was, and it was painful to watch.

Cavuto: That's on Donald Trump, Senator.

Lankford: He's got an office he's running for.

Senators aren't ruling out coming back next week if the House passes Ukraine aid.

“I’ll certainly be here trying to block funding. I’ll certainly vote against it, J.D. Vance told me, adding that he's not optimistic he could stop Senate approval if aid is passed in the House.

Europe has given more to Ukraine than the United States.

The U.S. provides more military equipment because it has a bigger military industrial base. But Europe as a whole has provided more economic support.

Sen. Rand Paul says he wants to drag out a vote on foreign aid as long as possible.

'The longer it takes them, the better. And I've told them that if they're going to make us come back next week then we might as well be here the whole time.'
