That vote was necessary as a stand-alone bill because far-left anti-Semites, mostly members of the so-called “squad,” joined forces earlier in the week to strip the funding from the main budget bill.
Naturally, those who live to see Israel wiped off the face of the Earth didn’t take it well as scenes of lunacy were presented on the floor.
Here’s a taste of that before we get to the weirdest reaction of the day. . @RepRashida (D-MI) opposing #IronDome funding for Israel: “I will not support an effort to enable and support war crimes, human rights abuses, and violence.” https://t.co/2twCjbJrNH pic.twitter.com/W4zWwmnSug — CSPAN (@cspan) September 23, 2021 Now, I may not be the smartest right-leaning writer on the internet, but I’m pretty sure that a defensive system that exists solely to shoot down rockets targeting civilians is not enabling war crimes. That is unless you take Tlaib’s statement to its logical conclusion, which is anything that denies the Palestinians the ability to murder masses of Jews somehow prolongs the conflict.
You see, the anti-Semites in Congress have often signaled that they believe Hamas terrorists should have parity with the Israeli military because that would then force Israel into concessions and therefore deliver “peace.” It’s a sick position to hold, but it’s one Tlaib has rambled into many times, and while she tries to couch it in emotional pleas for human rights, it’s clear she’d prefer dead Israelis if it ended with Palestinian terrorists getting what they want.
But what if I told you that wasn’t the craziest response of the day? Because Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez actually started crying after voting present.

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
