To pay for the foreign aid, however, the legislation includes $14.3 billion in cuts to funding for the Internal Revenue Service, a key detail that will likely be a nonstarter for Democrats.
The cuts would affect funds included in the Democrats’ sweeping tax, health and climate bill — dubbed the Inflation Reduction Act — signed into law last year.
Yup. All the while yacking it up that you're trying to get stuff done quickly but the Dems just won't be cooperative. Great strategy. This one will be fun to watch.
The superhero sweating over the buttons meme comes to mind. Dems > Hamas > Israel. Maybe that's why Israel was saved for last. Death blow to the party over the issue.
Maybe that is the whole point. Show support and let the Dems block it. End result is no money sent to a foreign country that’s never sent a penny to us.
Nice tactic. Makes the Dems look anti-Israel all while wanting to keep money for the IRS who bleeds 98% of Americans. Drives a big wedge in D party. Yuge wedge like a maul up the ass type of fissure.
Adding things that affect Democrat programs is just 2 party divisive BS anyway designed to garner conservative support for a bill that isn't conservative at all.
+$14.3 Billion for a foreign nation we shouldn't be sending to. But -$14.3 billion for an agency that shouldn't exist.
You know what, fuck it. Go ahead and sign it. I'm not paying taxes anyways.
It won't pass
THIS is the way to do it.
Propose legislation for "muh optics" but get something of value in return.
Fuck Israel.
But also, fuck the IRS.
Quite a dilemma. Especially for Dems.
Exactly.
This is what the Democrats do time and again while the GOP never had the balls to do.
Tie it to their pet projects and let them vote against it and use it as a talking point for the elections.

Yes
Exactly, straight from the stupid D's playbook. "Well, they voted against aid for Israel...."
I think that is the idea. Either way it is a win-win.
1.The money is already spent.
2.May as well also drain the IRS ar the same time.
This is a massive troll of the deep state.
I like this Mike Johnson guy a lot better right now. The dems & rinos get to feel the heat for a change, lol.
Holy fucking hell. Reading the headline I felt rage to Johnson, now I love my Johnson. What a boss move!

It's funny how few know this is exactly what Trump does when he seems to be taking the other side

Different country, different speaker, same grift.

Israel is for the Right, as Ukraine is for the Left. Now the two are United in Solidarity!
