They also accused House Republicans of playing politics with the crisis in Israel, delaying aid for the Jewish State by tying support to cutting funding for the Internal Revenue Service, a favorite target for Republicans, rather than writing a bipartisan bill.
Regardless of how you feel re: Israel/Palestine, gutting IRS funding as a part of funding Israel’s ongoing military action is absurd.

I agree completely but even if you ignore all the politics of it they’re just such wildly different domains.
We don’t invest in schools when we give contracts to haliburton and all that.
