WilshireUS Senate Democrats block Republican bid to aid Israel, not Ukraine
sylver_dragonGood. Tying aid to cuts in IRS funding was absolutely asinine. Failing to fund Ukraine, which is actually fighting for it’s continued existence as a political entity is also asinine.
Yes, Hamas is a horrible organization; but, the Israeli Government isn’t facing an existential threat and has not been an innocent actor in the situation in Gaza. Aid and support should come with strings attached to ensure the protection of civilians and property rights of the people being displaced.
Tying aid to cuts in IRS funding was absolutely asinine.
Not really, at least in their minds.
It jives with party dogma, depresses audits and therefore, donors win big (which fills campaign war chests).
Perfectly sensible by those metrics. /s
The irs cuts were to curtail the new staff which was tasked with auditing the middle class.
