The Democratic-led U.S. Senate moved towards the final passage of a $95.34 billion aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan on Monday, amid growing doubts about the legislation’s fate in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

The lawmakers voted 66-33 to exceed a 60-vote margin and sweep aside the last procedural hurdle before final consideration of the bill. Senate leaders had expected a vote on passage sometime on Wednesday.

    Good. Now replace the house speaker so it can sail to the presidents desk.

    I wish isreal wasn’t in there though. They seem to have plenty for genocide and superb owl ads.
