FYI: Israel is on autopay
Twitter/X ^ | Oct 9 | Sen. Marco Rubio

Posted on 10/09/2023 4:02:24 PM PDT by RandFan

@marcorubio

The reason military aid to Israel will not face some of the obstacles Ukraine aid has faced is because back in December of 2020 we passed my bill authorizing a minimum of $3.3 billion a year in aid for 8 years (2021-2028)

Because of our bill the administration already has pre-existing authority to provide substantial defense aid without any new congressional action.

The No speaker thing doesn’t matter if they do not

Speaker Pro Tem holds all the powers of Speaker until one is elected. If, which they do not need to do, the US House wanted to pass a bill they can do it today.

Rubio the DS CLOWNASS brags about it - like borrowing from China to fund zombie militaries is a good thing.

___________________________________________

Has Marco not been reading the numerous reports that Biden has redirected 80% of artillery aid from Israel to Ukraine?

“Without any new congressional action.”

And has Marco not been reading up on the Nine Billion Dollars in aid Biden has allocated to Iran/Hamas?

I think this is why Biden is being so quite on Israel. He was going to divert this money to Ukraine. Remember the big speech he was going to give about going around Congress? to secure Ukraine funding? The Biden regime is up to something. It probably illegal but they shown they will simply make up the rules and challenge the Courts to slap them down

After the 2020 election. Trump knew that the Neocons would be coming into power and would screw things up again, and likely use the aid to force Israel to be their bitch for their many ‘projects’ - and TRUMP PREEMPTED IT.

Rubio and Coons introduced the bill into the NDAA, not Trump.
