Speaker Johnson finds way to pay for Israeli Aid

Speaker Johnson finds perfect way to fund military aid for Israel, upsetting all the right people

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) sent Democrats into an uproar with his first major legislative proposal as leader of the House.

On Monday, Johnson unveiled a proposal to send Israel $14.3 billion in military assistance funding, consistent with President Joe Biden's request.

BUT, To pay for the military assistance, Johnson proposed rescinding an equal amount of funds appropriated to the Internal Revenue Service through the Inflation Reduction Act, which Biden signed into law last year. The law, which did not actually lower inflation, aggressively expanded the IRS with $80 billion in funding over the next 10 years.

Read about why Democrats are upset.

For a starter, Democrats love to spend money we don't have. They approve of inflation. They approve of our unsustainble national debt. They approve of sending billions to foreign countries even terrorist countries such as Iran. But they don't do a damn thing to keep OUR country safe and have been cutting down the razor wire installed and paid for by Texas at the border.
