Republican presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) challenged the entire GOP primary field to oppose President Joe Biden‘s announcement of $100 million in humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza and the West Bank.
Biden made the announcement on Wednesday during his trip to Israel, where he met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Isaac Herzog and reiterated American support for the beleaguered nation.
“Joe Biden just announced $100 million of your taxpayer dollars going to the Gaza Strip. They say it’s humanitarian assistance. We know Hamas is going to commandeer that money, and Hama is going to use it to advance terrorism,” DeSantis said. “I say no U.S. tax dollars to the Gaza Strip.”
