He added that Trump floated the idea of a loan concept. The speaker additionally raised the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreign.senate.gov\/press\/rep\/release\/risch-whitehouse-applaud-committee-passage-of-repo-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">REPO Act<\/a> to use seized assets from Russian oligarchs to help fund Ukraine\u2019s war effort.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are ideas that I think can get consensus, and that\u2019s what we\u2019ve been working through. We\u2019ll send our package, we\u2019ll put something together and send it to the Senate and get these obligations completed,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n<p>Like other Republicans, Johnson chided Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) after the Senate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/news\/senate-blocks-14-3-billion-in-aid-for-israel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">blocked<\/a> a House-passed bill that would have provided $14.3 billion in emergency aid to Israel with an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) offset.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat a concept, we took from the IRS expansion slush fund to pay for the Israel priority,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n<p>The speaker noted that the House later considered an Israel aid bill without the IRS offset.

We should stand with our Democratic allies and push back against the enemies of freedom.
