House Majority Leader Steve Scalise is calling for the Biden Administration to be held accountable for the “appeasement” of the military group behind the attacks on Israel.
“The Biden Administration must be held accountable for its appeasement of these Hamas terrorists, including handing over billions of dollars to them and their Iranian backers,” Mr. Scalise said.
“I stand with Israel in the face of this brutal terrorist assault by Iran-backed Hamas,” Mr. Hern wrote on X. “This is another reminder why we should NOT be providing ransom payments to Iran which will be used to kill Israeli civilians. How much of Biden’s $6 billion ransom payment has gone to Hamas?”
So far, Mr. Biden has not released a statement regarding the attacks. The president has a chilly relationship with Mr. Netanyahu that only grew colder when news broke the prisoner swap deal. At the time, Mr. Netanyahu said that the money would go toward “terrorist elements sponsored by Iran.”

This is beyond incompetence. This is malice.

Damned strait!
Hamas visited with Putin {/sarcasm}
but the big guy got his 10%
that is the important part
The "let's blame Russia for the Hamas attack" was some of the most transparently naked propaganda I have seen in a while.
Most corrupt administration in the history of the republic
Tree of Liberty needs water
How dare you not agree with some of the whackos on FR that remind us that "Putin caused the attack?" Please subscribe, and you will not be embarrassed next time. You can follow these nut cases and will remain fully informed of all things Putin.
OMG. What a sick bunch of fools.
I’ll second that emotion Steve.
Biden and Kerry hate Israel.
Steve Scalise is right - democrats have been sucking up to Hamas since Biden took office.
Both Kremlin and White House refuse to condemn Hamas. Both pleading for a ceasefire instead.
Why didn’t he say anything before he was trying to get the Speaker chair? Biden did this weeks ago. Smacks of exploiting a crises to me. Scalise is the GOPe’s boy.
No one is saying this, but as once before, this is a great failure of Israeli intelligence.
I was hoping some Republican would FINALLY use one of Bidets disasterous actions to GOP advantage. This is the SECOND war caused by Traitor Joe’s weakness and idiocy.
Hamas who? Sniffer’s response.
Israel was warned to take out Putin’s drone factories in Iran two years ago and they didn’t. Now Hamas is using those drones against Israel.
” How much of Biden’s $6 billion ransom payment has gone to Hamas?”
Remember the gift of $6 billion was given to Iran on the anniversary of 9/11. Bad enough they got the money, but why THAT day?
Our nation is collapsing and likely terminal. This is where Scalise’s attention should be.
Barry got his way.
It’s a combination of two things: first, malice as you say . The Obama goons who run this administration hate Israel and want to see it destroyed. As to Iran in particular, the Obama strategy was to reach “breakthroughs” with Iran and Cubs, deals we got nothing out of, but which the media could be relied upon to portray as diplomatic triumphs. That’s why Biden continues to pursue a deal with a regime that, you’ll recall, won’t even conduct direct meetings with us. Russia, of all people was the intermediary in our negotiations with Iran
