Voting Impact on US-Israel Relations
Did two rounds of voting in Washington, D C.
result in the American people losing more money and more sovereignty?
The answer, of course, is yes.
The results of the voting can be summed up simply.
Americans lost, and Israel won big.
While a massive military spending bill was voted on in the
House that included another 3 3 billion for Israel,
Republican Representative Thomas Massie introduced an amendment to cut it all.
But the amendment failed 314 votes to 104,
Massie being the only Republican who voted in favor of it.
The rest of the Republicans took to X to celebrate sending
more of your tax dollars to Israel.
And AIPAC was celebrating right along with them about Massie's defeat
and the billions of dollars coming out of your pocket and going
into Israel's coffers.
They are so arrogant that they are rubbing it in our faces.
But this wasn't the only kick in the teeth that the American people took.
The same bill pushes through deeper military integration between the United
States and Israel.
It expands joint operations,
technology sharing, data sharing,
and closer entanglement with a country
that is currently assigned a threat level of critical by the Pentagon due to
its past and present acts
of espionage against the United States.
Even Rand Paul voted yes on the final bill,
ending a long standing confidence the America First movement had in him.
But what does this say about the direction our country seems to be going in?
And even while our relationship with Israel
is less popular now than it's ever been, that fact seems to have
little to no effect on decisions those who are supposed to represent us are making.
But one thing is for certain,
we are less sovereign today than we were yesterday,
and here are the people who are responsible for that.
