On Monday's broadcast of Newsmax TV's "The Balance," House Speaker Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) stated that "What we've been talking about with Ukraine and in the national security supplemental, which also includes Israel and the Indo-Pacific region, is some of the new concepts that you've been hearing about," like seizing the assets of Russian oligarchs to fund lethal aid to Ukraine, structuring foreign aid as a loan, and "additional sanctions on Russia and energy exports from the U.S., because that takes the fuel out of Vladimir Putin's war machine." Johnson also stated that border provisions will be attached.
