I heard the news on the grapevine and digged just the slightest so this is the first link I found.

Maybe true or just another stalling technique?

Slava Ukraine!

    It is another stalling technique.
    They are going to split the bill for aid to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan and AIPAC into 4 bills and vote on them separately.

    But because they split the bill the Senate needs to vote on the bills again, and there the Ukraine bill will never get 60% it needs to pass.

    The Israël bill will pass, leaving Ukraine high and dry and giving the MAGAts what they desire.

      That could be but I was under the impression that Senate Republicans were more pro-Ukraine and anti-Putin than the House.

      You may be right, we will have to see what happens.

        Eniugh Senate Republicans are shills for Trump that they probably won’t break their automatic filibuster.
