Here's a Brutal Reality graf about the sitch from Sean Davis of The Federalist:
...The most enraging aspect of Mike Johnson’s border betrayal is his refusal to even acknowledge his myriad promises to secure the border first before funneling money overseas. He broke his word and now wants to pretend he never promised anything.
Matt Gaetz didn’t make him make that promise and then break it. Marjorie Taylor Greene didn’t force Mike Johnson to promise to secure the border first. Thomas Massie didn’t make Mike Johnson promise to secure the border before funding Ukraine. Chip Roy and Eli Crane and Bob Good and the House Freedom Caucus didn’t force Mike Johnson to promise to secure the border first before sending money overseas.
Mike Johnson made that promise. He made it deliberately and he made it repeatedly. And now, instead of owning it and explaining why he changed his mind and broke his promise, he’s lashing out at anyone who dares point out that he broke his word.
He’s not a leader. He’s a disgrace, and he should resign. This country deserves better than a dishonest border betrayer who cares more about plaudits from CNN and Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer than he cares about the well-being of his own citizens....
Johnson is probably a nice guy. But he doesn't know his Scripture as well as he thinks he does. There is a verse “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be ye therefore wise as serpents and harmless as doves" from Matthew....
Johnson is the perfect example of someone who is as dumb as a dove and lacking all wisdom.
Johnson--when he's telling the truth--could argue that any money spent on the US border will be mis-used by the Biden criminals, and there he would be absolutely correct.
But that leaves the second part of the promise unmentioned: that he would NOT spend money defending the Ukraine (or Israel, or Taiwan) borders until the US border is secured.
"Never mind," he says.
Well, Mikie-boy, we DO mind. A lot. Go home and study your Bible.
