If Israel didn’t exist most of the people in the US congress would not even have a political career.

Freshly elected U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson uses the occasion of his first address to announce his unwavering support to a foreign power.

Speaker Johnson pledged to immediately put forward a bill to aid the so-called State of Israel.

The President has already made a request for 14.3 billion dollars in funding for Israel (https://www.npr.org/2023/10/20/1206301577/biden-ukraine-israel-congress-funding-request), one of the single largest aid packages ever requested.

It is worth noting that 20% of the population of Johnson’s home state, Louisiana, lives in poverty.

17 million Whites live in poverty throughout the United States.

Millions of Americans live with unsafe drinking water.

Rural schools are also suffering from a funding squeeze (https://www.americanprogress.org/article/make-rural-schools-a-priority/), effecting millions of White students in states like Michigan, Missouri, Tennessee, and South Dakota.

The list of policy and funding priorities which come before the so-called State of Israel is long.

But they don’t care about you.
