No Ukraine funding is a hard no from me. I hope the Senate rejects the bill until it's added back.

Funding can always be restored separately.

That's good.

Unfortunately, it's the best deal we have right now. We wouldn't have got anything with a government shutdown either. At least government stays open and people will still get their paychecks. Democrats can decide what to do later because McCarthy clearly does not have a governing majority. If we had a parliamentary system, we'd be heading into an election. (I think that's a strong argument in support of such a system.)
