On Thursday, under the leadership of the newly installed Speaker Mike Johnson, House Republicans successfully passed a stand-alone bill to help Israel fight Hamas following the October 7 attacks.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Joe Biden is mulling over a supplementary request for a massive $100 billion, earmarked for defense assistance to Israel and Ukraine, along with border security funding in the US, and aid to nations in the Indo-Pacific, including Taiwan.
However, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson made it clear on Sean Hannity’s prime-time Fox News show last week that he intends to separate the issues of foreign aid to Ukraine and Israel. He argued that this support for Israel is being cunningly utilized to smuggle in aid for Ukraine.
“I told the staff, the White House today, that our consensus among House Republicans is that we need to bifurcate those issues,” said Johnson.
