- Meaningful #innovation often involves overhauling entire #production processes, rather than just improving on the cutting edge, which is a much more difficult and complex undertaking.
- The #green #energy revolution demonstrates what real #innovation looks like, with tangible improvements to the #economy and the #environment, in contrast to the #hype and speculation surrounding much of the #tech #industry's purported #innovations.

Mike Johnson hints vote on Ukraine aid is up next despite threat to speakership

US House speaker, #Mike #Johnson, has raised expectations that a vote on #funding for #Ukraine could be imminent in the chamber, even at the risk of the Republican losing his leadership position.

Johnson touted “important #innovations” to a possible Ukraine package during an interview on Fox News’s Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy, and he suggested a vote on a standalone bill could come soon after Congress returns from Easter recess on 9 April.

The Louisiana Republican acknowledged forces in his party were trying to unseat him over his efforts to find a bipartisan solution to stalled US funding for Ukraine’s efforts to repel Russia’s military invasion, which began in February 2022.

The far-right extremist Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene filed a motion to remove Johnson in March, but she stopped short of calling it for a floor vote.

Ousted House speaker #McCarthy says Johnson shouldn’t fear losing job: ‘I don’t think they could do it again’

The #White #House, meanwhile, has warned that #delays are #costing Ukraine #lives and #territory because Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, “gains every day” Congress does not pass a funding measure.
