## Resource

A bold House vote to cut $3.3 billion in U.S. aid to Israel was decisively rejected—314 to 104—but nearly half of Democrats backed the measure, exposing deep fractures within the party. With former Speaker Pelosi among those voting yes, the move signals a seismic shift in U.S. foreign policy priorities amid mounting pressure over Gaza and Netanyahu’s leadership. Just two years ago, only 37 Democrats supported a similar cut; this time, 103 voted yes, plus 10 abstained—while only one Republican joined them. The once-bipartisan consensus on aid to Israel is crumbling, revealing a new era of political reckoning. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
