Report: Thomas Massie Says He Will Not Vote for Johnson as Speaker After Spending Bill
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) has publicly declared he will not support Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) in the upcoming speakership vote due to dissatisfaction with a recently released spending bill. Many Republicans criticize the 1,537-page continuing resolution for excessive spending and provisions that contradict the mandate from voters.

Frustration is mounting among GOP lawmakers, with some suggesting a shift away from Johnson. Critics, including Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Andrew Clyde, express disappointment in Johnson's leadership and the implications of the spending bill, which they believe undermines the party's principles.

House Speaker Mike Johnson's leadership is at risk following his support for a massive bipartisan spending bill, which includes various add-ons. Conservative backlash has emerged, with figures like Elon Musk and Donald Trump criticizing the deal and calling for a "clean" continuing resolution.

With Johnson's involvement in the negotiations, potential replacements are being discussed as several Republicans oppose the current proposal. The situation is tense, as the House faces a looming government shutdown and must navigate the divided opinions within the party.

Trump Opposes Mike Johnson's Spending Bill: 'Totally Against It'
President-elect Donald Trump has expressed strong opposition to the proposed continuing resolution (CR), criticizing it for including unrelated and costly provisions. He and Vice President-elect JD Vance argue that the bill would obscure records related to the January 6 committee and provide unnecessary pay increases for Congress while Americans face economic struggles.

The CR aims to extend current funding levels due to Congress's failure to pass the necessary funding bills, but it has drawn criticism from various lawmakers for being laden with excessive provisions. Key concerns include its potential to facilitate government censorship and the lack of accountability regarding congressional pay raises. The CR is set for a vote as government funding is set to expire.

The Biden Administration's Dangerous Bangladesh Intervention
Since the ousting of former PM Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh has seen increased violence against Hindus and non-Muslims, exemplified by the arrest of Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das, who advocated for minority rights. The new interim government under Muhammad Yunus has lifted bans on jihadist groups, exacerbating religious persecution.

The Biden administration's attempts to influence Bangladesh's political landscape through NGOs and regime change tactics have backfired, leading to a rise in Islamist power and undermining US credibility in the region. This situation calls for a reevaluation of US foreign policy in South Asia.
