KJP Biden no plans to meet Speaker Johnson despite repeated requests, blame Republicans

Karine Jean-Pierre says Biden has no plans to meet with Speaker Johnson despite the speaker’s repeated requests.

Biden would rather smear Republicans than do his job, reverse his executive actions dismantling border security, and secure the border.

After this bill failed to pass the Senate last week, Schumer rolled out another supplemental aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. The Senate early Tuesday passed Schumer’s supplemental aid package and allocated $95 billion to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. 22 Republicans voted in favor of giving foreign countries money while ignoring the crisis at the US border. The $95 billion package died in the House. Speaker Johnson shut it down. “The Republican-led House will not be jammed or forced into passing a foreign aid bill that was opposed by most Senate Republicans,” Speaker Johnson said.

Transcript Highlights

The following is transcribed from the video audio:

• Speaker Johnson has suggested that he needs a one-on-one meeting with President Biden
• Given that Johnson has said he doesn’t feel rushed on foreign aid, would that one-on-one meeting help
• I mean, look, and I appreciate the question, Josh, but the president met with, met with obviously congressional leadership less than a month ago, just less than a month ago
• And he made really clear how important it was to get that bipartisan, negotiated legislation coming out of the Senate, how important it was to get that, to move that forward
• And let’s not forget, it’s almost as, it’s almost as if the speaker is actually negotiating with himself, truly
• You mentioned that the president did meet with leaders about a month ago
• Since then, the speaker’s office says the president has declined multiple requests that they have made for this one-on-one
• I guess just given what you and the president say is at stake here, why not meet with him
• I mean, it seems that you’re saying there’s just nothing to be gained by the president getting in a room with the speaker
• And I appreciate, I get what you’re saying, but we’ve actually delivered multiple times the Senate has on what the speaker’s asking for
