President Biden vowed on Monday to veto a House Republican bill that would provide $17.6 billion in aid to Israel, calling it a “cynical political maneuver” intended to hurt the chances of passage for broader legislation that would provide money for Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan and the U.S. border.
House Republicans fiercely oppose the larger bill, which was unveiled by a small, bipartisan group of senators over the weekend. It calls for $118.3 billion in spending and would overhaul some of the nation’s immigration laws to deal with recent surges of migrants at the southern border.
Ah, so he wants to make sure that everyone gets funding, not just Israel.
How about NO MONEY TO THE MOTHER FUCKING GENOCIDE?
He is not a dictator, you know? The other side argues for only genocide.
Yes, the lack of civic knowledge is sometimes frightening. I’m not one to say “both sides!”, but in this case, I see it on both the left and right: people who don’t seem to understand that most major bills in the US pass through compromise. This is true even when one party has a majority, because the US has some of the weakest party discipline of any system (eg people can vote against their party).
Your need to invoke Trump proves your brainwashing.
You were the first one to bring him up.
The mental gymnastics.
They clearly dropped the “the only good thing about Biden is that he isnt Trump, which is why you must vote for him” logic.
You dipshits are just getting categorically rejected on that logic so you are getting more vague about it so you can keep trolling.
You are acccusing them of invoking a thing that only you invoked and when you’re called out on it, you accuse everyone else of “mental gymnastics”?
I did not even think of Trump. He is not in government.
Bullshit.
Yeah, what we need is the opposite bill: the one that helps Ukraine but not Israel.
