More funding for Ukraine. Why am I not surprised. This means the war isn't going to stop soon.

House passes NDAA, with $848B topline and protections for Ukraine aid​

WASHINGTON — The House passed its version of the fiscal 2026 defense policy bill today, with members rallying to protect funding for military aid to Ukraine and to speed defense procurement at home.

Snipped......

There were two notable shows of bipartisanship. First, Democrats and Republicans largely banded together to defeat amendments from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., that would have prohibited funding for Ukraine and eradicated funding for the Taiwan Security Cooperation Initiative. (The House NDAA authorizes $400 million for Ukraine, but no money is included in the House’s version of the defense appropriations bill, which actually greenlights the Pentagon’s budget.)

If Trump actually wants peace, he would shut down the money.

Shut down the money? Are you mad, man? He's the king of debt.

I think it has an amendment that would repeal the 2 previous laws that gave the exec power to start shit on his own. I think this is for show because Congress is getting questioned about selling off their duties to the exec and courts. It could be serious, but I very much doubt it. Too much money involved. https://thehill.com/policy/defense/5497564-house-passes-defense-bill/
