Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has agreed to join House Speaker Mike Johnson on an invitation for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint meeting of Congress — weeks after the Brooklyn Democrat urged a new election in the Jewish state with the aim of removing the PM from office.
“Sen. Schumer intends to join the invitation, the timing is being worked out,” a spokesman for Schumer’s office told The Post on Friday.
Netanyahu, 74, has addressed Congress three times, with his last speech delivered months before the Obama administration signed on to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal.
The only other foreign leader to address joint meetings of Congress three times was British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who did so in 1941, 1943 and 1952.

I better not see any Israeli flags waving in Congress. I will be pissed.
******************
They’ll be everywhere in Congress.
The Comedian and Ukrainian flags will now be replaced by a new Churchill(Bibi) and Israeli flags.
The leadership of the United States loves foreigners and the interests of foreign nations.
“Cha-Ching”
Very informative fact-filled post.
Schumer has become a traitor...and Net knows it. Wouldn’t be surprised if he cops out and instead invites Johnson to meet with him.
Did you just get back from your Hamas meeting?
No I just got back from my America first meeting.
I support Israel 100 percent, but NO foriegn Flag should EVER fy in the Capitol.
Change your tagline.
The 2 are not mutually eclusive.
This might interest you....long read.
This really does reek of more Israeli political interference; and I'm rather sick of it.
Netanyahu should stay home and not enflame unrest in the US. He can also use email to remind US congress critters who's funding their campaigns.
More unrest hurts Brandon. Let it continue.
This bill is literally treasonous. They want to invalidate the 1st amendment just to stop those students from protesting. A Republican congressman from Arizona who voted against this travesty of a bill but receives AIPAC money admits he could be in trouble with them for this. He said AIPAC is threatening everyone who votes against this with funding a primary challenger against them with $3 million a piece. How any patriotic American can still support Israel after this is beyond me.
Thx for the realtime report.
Chuck Schumer supports the killing of over 1,200 men, women and children in Israel.
Schumer is a kapo and Johnson has already shown that he will decide what he thinks is best. Would they execute a secret warrant to arrest Netanyahu, I wonder.
