The Senate on Tuesday passed a long-delayed $95 billion package with wide bipartisan support after both sides of Capitol Hill have struggled for months to send aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.
The final vote was 79-18. Fifteen Republicans voted with three Democrats against the bill. Forty-eight Democrats and 31 Republicans voted for the bill.
The legislation next goes to President Joe Biden to sign it into law, who said he would sign the package Wednesday. Its passage is a significant victory for the US president, congressional Democrats and Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell, who long pushed to send aid to Ukraine even as the right wing of his party increasingly soured on support for Kyiv.
If anyone’s wondering, 26 billion goes to Israel
That’s a lot of dead kids
Can’t make a genocide without a few dead kids and a pile of free American cash, as Israel always says!
It’s an unusual expression, but it goes back generations now… O.o
Wow, genocide is expensive huh? Good thing they didn’t forget to donate more money towards it, poor Israel was at risk of leaving the Palestinians in peace.
Genocide Joe went from trying to give israel 16 Billion to just putting another 10 billion on top. Gotta make sure all of Bidens secret weapon
donations“purchases” to israel from before are fully refunded!
