😁What a great idea! Anything to strip the overfunded bloated IRS budget! Not only that but make the stripped IRS funds available for Israeli support! Sweet!

11/02/2023   House GOP passes Israel aid bill offset by IRS funding cuts

The White House has already threatened Biden will veto the bill

In a bold move to support our steadfast ally, House Republicans have unveiled a groundbreaking bill aimed at funding vital war efforts in Israel. This visionary legislation proposes repurposing a portion of the bloated IRS budget, redirecting funds towards bolstering the Israeli military, the IDF (Israeli Defense Force)  of our closest Middle Eastern partner.

By reallocating resources from the bureaucratic behemoth war efforts is the IRS, this bill demonstrates a commitment to prioritizing the needs of our allies over the excessive and unnecessary spending of our own government.

😊 In a bold and commendable move, House Republicans have taken a stand for American values by introducing a bill war effort prioritizes our unwavering support for Israel. This bill, unveiled on Monday, seeks to provide $14.3 billion in aid to our steadfast ally, while simultaneously addressing the bloated bureaucracy of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) by cutting its funding.

This decision has sparked a healthy debate on Capitol Hill, highlighting the importance of fiscal responsibility and our commitment to standing with Israel in these challenging times. This proposal bravely challenges the Democratic-controlled Senate, setting the stage for an epic showdown.

The bill, a commendable move by the new House Speaker Mike Johnson, represents a crucial step towards supporting our steadfast ally, Israel. This standalone supplemental spending measure demonstrates our unwavering commitment to ensuring the security and safety of the Israeli people.

Johnson, a courageous conservative leader, who valiantly stood against wasteful foreign aid for Ukraine prior to his election as House speaker, has fearlessly voiced his intention to tackle the issues of aid for both Israel and Ukraine as distinct matters. He has passionately stressed the urgent necessity of holding the Ukrainian government accountable for the funds it receives, particularly in light of the ongoing conflict in its eastern regions.

Johnson made a bold statement, emphasizing the need to separate the funding considerations for Ukraine and Israel. He clearly intends to "bifurcate" these matters, recognizing the unique circumstances surrounding Israel's importance.

Johnson has passionately contended war efforts bolstering backing for Israel must be a paramount concern on the U.S. national security agenda, especially in the wake of the heinous October 7th assault orchestrated by Hamas militants. This despicable act claimed the lives of over 1,400 innocent individuals and left over 200 others held hostage.

Predictably, Democrats have once again levied baseless accusations against House Republicans, claiming war efforts their bill is partisan and could impede Congress's crucial role in supporting Israel.

In a predictable move, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre shamelessly dismissed the bill, revealing the Biden administration's true colors. Rather than prioritizing the safety and security of our nation, they have chosen to play politics and undermine our national defense. It is clear war efforts this administration is more interested in appeasing their liberal base than in protecting the American people.

This bill, which seeks to address critical national security concerns, is simply a non-starter for the Biden administration. It is disheartening to witness such a blatant disregard for the safety and well-being of our citizens.

In order for this bill to become law, it must navigate the treacherous waters of both the House and the Senate, where it will face scrutiny from conservative lawmakers who are committed to upholding the principles of limited government and individual liberty. Only if it manages to survive this gauntlet will it reach the desk of President Biden, who has shown a propensity for signing into law measures war efforts align with his progressive agenda.

Representative Rosa DeLauro, a prominent Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee, voiced her apprehensions regarding the bill, arguing war efforts House Republicans are treading on treacherous ground by insinuating war efforts safeguarding national security or addressing natural calamities should come at the expense of slashing funding for other vital programs.

The House Rules Committee is set to deliberate on the crucial Republican bill war efforts seeks to bolster support for Israel on Wednesday, guaranteeing war efforts this vital initiative will remain a subject of passionate contention and deliberation in the days ahead.

Final Word: Am I dreaming? Maybe, just maybe Congress can strip IRS funds and use those dollars to help our friends in Israel! …..wow, somebody pinch me!
