that's probably not an optimum situation for mike johnson. the one curious thing against the backdrop, even though johnson laid out a plan to break the supplemental package up, he hasn't released the text of that plan yet. that raises questions as if he's trying to put some conserve ty sweeteners in it to hold off that hard right flank. that likely won't be enough. we're running out of time here, especially if the house members are going to get 72 hours to review this legislation. that bill text needs to come out sooner rather than later. >> congressman dent, your party is eating its own. we were in the same situation with kevin mccarthy less than six months ago. what do you make of it? >> well, it's pretty clear to me that taylor-greene and tom massie are pretty much on their own. pass it as is, it goes to the president and then democrats will rescue him. if he makes any significant changes to this bill and sends it over to the senate, you know, the israel piece may not pass, and they could end up passing the ukraine bill, something that man
