 just for us. I mean the House and the Senate doesn't a lot about humor, representing a bipartisan process of force for Ukraine. Zelensky did enter that room to applause. We were able to hear it from here just across the hallway. But once he gets inside, I imagine it's going to be a very tough intensity that he has with these senators. We saw some of them going in. But the dynamics here on Capitol Hill have not just been questions about a supplemental for some of these people. But that package is also going to be related to Israel, the state of Taiwan, and the support they're giving to those who act. The Republicans in this room have been clear that this is going to be a very tough sell for Zelensky to make. And that the White House might be sending in here to a bit of a pool of air. So the fact that it doesn't seem to be a problem for the Republicans on the Senate side, that there is the will or a path to get this done by we can see here when Zelensky entered the room. I asked him, what are the states here for your country? He didn't answer on the way in. But he has been clear and equivocal about the states in their settings. It's going to be interesting to see if he talks with reporters now. But you're right. He's got a full day of meetings here first on the Senate side, then crossing over to the House side for the first time with Speaker Mike Johnson, who has been someone that's been clear about the fact that there's not a lot of power type within the House of Republican Congress to continue sending news to Ukraine and that there needs to be a focus on the Southern border, specifically the harsh restrictions that House Republicans have put forward in their immigration and border bill in the past. That's not something that's going to make it to the Senate, but all of this amounts to a very sticky situation here for the end of your supplemental that seems less and less like Ukraine even if it's easier to make a final hit. No, that's not true. Mr. Gage is the one. He's the first. Mr. Gage is the one. Mr. Gage is the one. Mr. Gage is 5.6. Okay. So I think you might lower that a little bit, or is that at the right rate? I think that's about it right now. Okay. We'll test it out. We'll test it out. Yeah. Oh, that's perfect. Have a good day. Have a good day. Have a good day. I understand a part of the life of those people. Is there a part of the life of those people? Yeah. I'll turn me through. I understand a part of the life of those people. Yeah. Okay. Good. Good. Good. I shall move into the next session. Thank you all. Take your time. Thank you. Fight as you are. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, yeah. Also, since the last six times. 140 pounds. Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. Okay. That's the background this time. And she's been talking to the members of Israel. I think that many of us believe that after they put a speaker in place, several weeks of tunnels, that they would move forward to quickly sending aid to Israel. We'll be watched instead with the newly minted speaker, Mike Johnson, then tie that Israeli aid to budget offsets that actually didn't offset or pay for the aid. But we're also non-sparklers on the Senate side of this building. We're concerned about putting conditions on aid to one of our closest allies. That is how you ended up with this much larger supplemental package with both together Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and border conditions. It's something that the administration itself was the initial catalyst for action. They're the ones who pulled this package together in that form, thinking that border security conditions would pull some reluctant Republicans to the cause of Ukraine, and that Israel aid would also pull in some Republican support. Instead, what we've seen is we've watched Republicans, both in the House and Senate, really leverage this as a moment for the United States to look to its southern border. They have said that in the same way that they want to send aid to Israel to Ukraine, they also need to deal with the American border crisis that they see happening. And so we're watching them continue to play this game of, frankly, political chicken with border security and sending aid overseas. I imagine that's what we're going to hear from Speaker Mike Johnson when he meets with Zelensky himself later today, but I do think it's important to underscore that even Republicans who have been supportive of Ukraine aid, people like Senator Lindsey Graham, for example, have said they think that this is really a mission to fail for Zelensky coming here and having to effectively have senators say no to his face for more aid because they cannot come to some kind of bipartisan negotiation or bipartisan consensus on the border pieces and the immigration pieces of this supplemental package. Immigration, we know this, we've covered it for years up here on Capitol Hill. One of the thorniest issues that Congress has yet to contend with, frankly, is every time they seem to come to some kind of bipartisan consensus, it then falls apart before votes can happen on it. So substantive change on immigration reform now tied to equally thornier issues on the world stage. It's really a recipe for an action. Why don't you text me? Sorry, I couldn't pull your voice over. Yeah, if you can keep the camera off, just text me when you want to be, if you want to go back in or if you want to go back in. I was talking about if you stand, buddy, wait a minute. See, I saved it. Coming back. Walk down the hallway behind me, but you can walk towards the house in that direction. That's where his next meetings are. I can see that house is in the house of my dad, Johnson, so I'm sort of glad you're here. Addressing the press at this critical, critical moment of getting a sense of that from senators about some of the early leadouts about what happened in the room here. We were told that, I think, he talked about it. Okay, folks, I'll be very grateful. It was a very powerful meeting. President Salinsky made it so clear that we need to help, but if he gets to help, he could win this war and he outlined in some great detail a kind of health community and how it would help him win. He gets the help he needs. He will do. On the other hand, he'd be very, very dangerous for the United States. And I'd like to influence through any surrogate what is what we need to do to be great. He also, if you don't give the equipment, several things will happen. First, the military needs. But second, you're, and many of us, you say, what is going on here? They're not giving, they're not giving the equipment. Every year, we hold the United States post as allies of the U.S. military. In terms of this, we did not hear many. And in fact, we had expected Salinsky himself, at some point, to come and speak to us here. Obviously, that didn't happen, but our understanding was that he was going to come to the press with some kind of a message after this meeting. One of the things that we do know is brought up inside the room, which is really a sticking point to the larger conversation about what's going on with the border security. We know that immigration is brought up in the room.
