Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, November 03, 2026

"It's a bad talking point because when you say, Why don't we give everybody $4 billion?' Israel's our number one; we give them more than anybody else, and they no longer need it," he said.

So, Pres Trump is cutting off the aid for political reasons?

Will he reinstate the aid after the midterms?
