It’s terribly sad that it took over six months for Mike Johnson to understand the dire global consequences of U.S. inaction on Ukraine. His blocking of the vote cost thousands of innocent lives, but at least he finally did the right thing.
That being said, Johnson is no hero.
“Johnson received a key intelligence briefing from CIA Director Bill Burns, who painted a picture of the dire situation on the battlefield in Ukraine and the global consequences of inaction, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the situation. The briefing left a lasting impression, and Johnson became increasingly convinced the fate of Western democracy was on his shoulders, sources close to him said.”
