Speaker Mike Johnson Wants to Separate Ukraine Aid from Israel Assistance: ‘The American People Demand Accountability for Their Tax Dollars’
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson made it clear on Sean Hannity’s prime-time Fox News show on Thursday that he intends to separate the issues of foreign aid to Ukraine and Israel.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the Biden regime is considering a whopping $100 billion in defense assistance earmarked for Israel and Ukraine, along with aid to nations in the Indo-Pacific, including Taiwan. In addition to this, there’s a substantial proposal for border security funding within the United States.
During his interview with Hannity, Johnson was clear that House Republicans want to “bifurcate” these issues. The rationale is simple: there’s a need for a distinct conversation on each foreign policy matter, whether it’s supporting Israel or backing Ukraine against Russian aggression.
