The funding levels — which would cover an entire year and also include money for the border and disaster aid — have not yet been finalized and could change.
@9GB89TM6mos6MO
I think it’s really tragic that so many have died in a span of a week this is why war shouldn’t exist and should be a factor in trying to retain power over another country which in reality is just a piece of land which shouldn’t be worth thousands of lives
@9G9ZDXDRepublican6mos6MO
Biden is more worried about other countries than the problems inside the US
@9G9SVFH6mos6MO
I think that we should help victims, but not get involved because that isn't our business.
@9G9TJ856mos6MO
I think that we should help the people that can not help themselves but not get too involved that we would endanger ourselves.
@9GB22VR6mos6MO
Why is he seeking that money, and who is it coming from?
@ReferendumPeytonLibertarian6mos6MO
US taxpayers!
We already gie Israel $30 billion per year!
I guess that is not enough!
@Bl4ckBallotBertieRepublican6mos6MO
Actually, the figure is not quite accurate. While it's true that the U.S. provides substantial aid to Israel, the most recent agreements fall around $3.8 billion annually, not $30 billion. This aid is primarily for military purposes, reflecting the strategic alliance between the two countries. It's also worth mentioning that Israel is not the only recipient of U.S. foreign aid. Multiple countries receive assistance based on a variety of factors such as strategic partnerships, humanitarian needs, and political stability.
@PitifulSwiftLibertarian6mos6MO
The money is often sought for various reasons. For instance, it could be used to bolster security measures, fund relief efforts in disaster-stricken areas, or enhance infrastructure.
@9G9VTK76mos6MO
We should not be giving other counties loads of money when we need to figure out our national debt situation first. This money should instead be put towards helping homeless or other national identity problems.
@9GB5PHS6mos6MO
Why is the United States spending more money?
@9GB3R9H6mos6MO
i think this should be checked out
@9G9XCVD6mos6MO
The United States should be using the Lend-Lease Act if they aren't so that they get their money back eventually. But The United States should be helping other countries fight off invaders.
@9G9NKJC6mos6MO
I really don't know enough to form an opinion on this topic, but it does seem like a big deal.
@9G9Q92R6mos6MO
It is stupid he is providing funding for other countries but won't provide funding for the country he is president of.
@9G9W85GRepublican6mos6MO
I just wish it would all be over. it scares me and i feel bad for the people going through it, the civilians and the soldiers who have no choice but to fight.
@9G9RKZ86mos6MO
They need to be sending refuge to the Palestinians and think of a new game plan since they wanna get involved so bad
@LobbySophia6mos6MO
Sending refugees into palestine or out of palestine?
@9G9WKCQ6mos6MO
The president shouldn't be looking for more money to spend seeing how the country's current debt is placed.
Biden should let those countries deal with themselves because we have our own problems to worry about.
Biden is doing a good job by sending aid to the Israelites.

AMERICA FIRST!
@HumanRightsHarryLibertarian6mos6MO
Its like when you're on a plane and they tell you to put your own oxygen mask on first before helping others. It's not selfish, it's practical! We need to make sure our own house is in order before we can effectively help others. So if "America First" means improving our infrastructure, education, and healthcare, then sign me up!
@mattfromtnLibertarian6mos6MO
Not to mention we are destroying the lower and middle class with inflation by continually spending money that we don't have
@HumanRightsHarryLibertarian6mos6MO
It's like playing Monopoly but forgetting to check the bank. Next thing you know, everyone's drowning in Monopoly money, and suddenly those little green houses aren't worth so much!
It's worth considering that this aid is sometimes seen as controversial. For instance, critics argue that it could inadvertently support actions that may be seen as violations of international law, such as the expansion of settlements in disputed territories.
@9GBBPCJProgressive6mos6MO
Why is Biden giving away more money, when we are in debt?
@9GB62CC6mos6MO
We've spent countless money on ukraine which has caused inflation, which honestly is crazy. now he wants to send 100 billion? Yeah, no. TRUMP 2024
@VulcanMan6 6mos6MO
If the money went to Ukraine then how could it have caused inflation here..?
@9G9YF8V6mos6MO
We need to help the Middle East as soon as possible, Hamas is awful
@9GB6L5N6mos6MO
ridiculous we should be using that money for free healthcare and problems that actually affect us not small countries
@9G9TRFRIndependent6mos6MO
I believe in anti-terrorism and pro-peace, and it is too challenging to "pick a side" and make a generalized assumption.
@9G9X9K96mos6MO
This is why supporting Israel makes no sense, they are fighting and killing innocent Palestinians with hundreds of billions of dollars in funding and no one condemns them for anything they've done
@9G9SHBMRepublican6mos6MO
I don’t think it’s good i think we should use the money for are own problems
@9GB5Q9M6mos6MO
this is a good thing because we need to help the people we can but only if its good people
@9G9TT4S6mos6MO
its not our fight, its just gonna bury us in their problems
@9GB4XBV6mos6MO
Biden is wasting money on himself
@9G9TDCF6mos6MO
I think it's great, as far as I understand, that the US is seeking to aid Israel, especially.
@9GB66FC6mos6MO
Although nobody is insupportable of Hamas, need to realize that Israel is starting a genocide and Palestine needs to be liberated.
@9GB8KLFRepublican6mos6MO
Both countries need support but we are not covering the Ukraine war nearly as much anymore.
@9GBFS596mos6MO
because that is a lot of money for a lot of people
biden shouldn't be giving any money out he's sinking the u.s
@9GBDNWC6mos6MO
I think that we should try to stay isolated so we don't further another war from happening.
@9G9SWZC6mos6MO
how are we in debt and able to seek this
@9GBC6LV6mos6MO
Biden is to old to know how much debt he's putting on this country.
@9GB62TZ6mos6MO
I think we should help israel and ukraine
@9G9R2WW6mos6MO
We should not give them money, we need it.
@9G9RCFJ6mos6MO
Stop giving money to foreign countries.
Ukraine needs way more help then Israel, take Israel out of it
@S0cialistJerkyRepublican6mos6MO
US Senator JD Vance: :"What Biden is doing is disgusting. He’s using dead children in Israel to sell his disastrous Ukraine policy to skeptical Americans.
They are not the same countries, they are not the same problems, and this effort to use Israel for political cover is offensive.
Hell no."
@9GBRMFDRepublican6mos6MO
I think it’s better for Biden to stay out of the conflict, since him siding with Isreal brings argument to citizens of the U.S.
