Let me just say this. Joe Biden has been one of the staunchest Israel supporters of any President of the United States. You are going to take the word of the Ayatollah over the word of the President of the United States? The President of the United States has said not a penny will get to the Ayatollah, but yet you want to take the side or believe in that brutal authoritarian dictator. I think that the American people know better than that. I think that the American people understand better than that. I think that the American people can look at the facts and see what side Joe Biden is on, as he talks on a regular basis with the leadership of Israel, almost every day since October 7. I wouldn't trust or believe anything that the Ayatollah says, but I do believe in Joe Biden. Mr. Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Ogles). The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the ayes appeared to have it.
