Mike Pence: Schumer Comments About Israel ‘a Disgrace’

EXCERPT:

PENCE: “Martha, I started the year visiting a kibbutz in southern Israel that was struck on October 7th by Hamas. The worst attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust. And there should be only one message coming from the United States of America today. And that is America stands with Israel. Israel is in a fight for its very survival. And the idea that the Democrat majority leader of the United States Senate would take to the floor of that storied chamber and start to dictate what the leadership of our most cherished ally, Israel, should be, is a disgrace. And frankly, I’m almost as offended by the fact that President Biden called it a good speech. There’s this whole doctrine that America should speak with one voice. That, of course, is always the voice of the president of the United States. And for President Biden not to — to pull back on what Chuck Schumer said is astonishing. It is an example, ironically, of a democratic leader in America trying to engage in election interference in Israel. The people of Israel, I can tell you, having been there, Martha, are completely united behind the goal and the objective of destroying Hamas and the United States of America should send no other message than we are with you all the way until Hamas is destroyed once and for all.”
