they finally got speaker mike johnson to agree to a process to bring this up and democrats with help of many institutional republicans who are pro-ukraine helped carry it over the line. the interesting thing about this is that these are all unique coalitions. it is a different coalition that passed ukraine aid, some democrats and some republicans. it will be a different coalition that passes israel aid, mostly republicans and some democrats over the objections of many progressives who wanted to slap conditions on how the netanyahu government can use the aid out of concerns for their actions in gaza. the final vote is to come but this looks to be good shape to pass. it mirrors the $95 billion package that president biden wanted. it will go to the senate where there will be support from chuck schumer and mitch mcconnell to get it done. >> just got word that it is done and it has passed, just getting the word from the control booth. we will get the numbers in a moment. you referenced ukraine. 101 republicans, 210 democrats voted in favor. there was one republican from pennsylvania, repr

why did speaker mike johnson bring this up now? >> i think the question is why didn't he bring it up sooner and i don't have an answer to that. i know every day we delay in passing the aid, more people die. this is critical. we have a large ukrainian american community in my district. people from the ukrainian army who are back in my district, receiving medical care. i will tell you, it is difficult to speak to them as we were waiting for the aid to pass. a young man who lost both of his legs, both his eyes, talking about how he stood in the breach, facing off russian soldiers knowing if they got past him, they would raze the village behind him, rape women, and kidnap children. he stood there losing so much in his desire to protect the village. now woe know they are being outgunned about ten to one according to the head of u com. this is critical and we have to get this passed today. >> i'm curious how this hits for you personally as a former navy pilot. you are a veteran. when you hear stories like that, experiences like that, how

but of course, over all of this is johnson's job. it is his job on the line especially after republicans, three of them had said that they could potentially force a motion to kick him out. i talked to one of them yesterday, congressman thomas massey, who gathered with reporters just a couple minutes ago, as well. he is looking to have speaker johnson resign on his own. a part of that is because of the drama that they faced in the fall when the ousted kevin mccarty. you saw joachim jeffries, ended up getting more votes than a republican speaker candidate did. that was an embarrassing moment for republicans, one that they do not want to repeat. overall here, it is just not clear to see what happens in terms of what marjorie taylor greene is going to do later on the floor today, if she is going to do any glenn beck on the floor to force a vote on this, but johnson, so far, avoiding us as we have been trying to find out him all day long, does not want to face us ahead of these critical votes. both for the first time as i can remember as
