The United States gave Netanyahu over $24 billion in taxpayer dollars to fund his horrific war in Gaza. That wasn't enough. Netanyahu wanted war with Iran. Trump gave him one. The American people — not Netanyahu’s right-wing government — should determine U.S. foreign policy.

Republicans have insisted for years that any increase in America’s so-called debt limit be paired with spending reductions. Now the party is poised to discard that philosophy and press ahead with legislation that combines nearly $4 trillion in tax cuts with a $5 trillion increase to the debt limit.
