I reported on Wednesday that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) was "considering" inviting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress. The Speaker's consideration has ended. On Thursday, Johnson said he will "certainly" invite Netanyahu to speak before Congress.

Johnson and Netanyahu: 1, Chuck Schumer, Joe Biden, and the entire Democrat Party: 0.

Johnson told NBC's "Squawk Box":

I would love to have him come in and address a joint session of Congress. We’ll certainly extend that invitation.

Johnson said "We'll find out" if Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) will agree to allow Netanyahu to speak before a joint session of Congress.

I'm the one that extends the invitations to speak in the House, and if we just have the House, that's fine, too. But I think a big majority of that Senate would want to come and stand in support of Netanyahu and Israel.

As you might recall, Schumer (a Jew, mind you) threw Netanyahu under the bus last Thursday in a blatant attempt to interfere in Israel's sovereignty as the Jewish state continues its stated goal of destroying Hamas after the terrorist group's horrific October 7 attack. He said:

I believe that holding a new election once the war starts to wind down would give Israelis an opportunity to express their vision for the post-war future.

Yeah, no, Chuck — it's not your job to make that call.

"I believe that holding a new election once the war starts to wind down would give Israelis an opportunity to express their vision for the post-war future."

So here's the thing:

This is a perfect move by Johnson. From Schumer to Biden to congressional Democrats, the Speaker is forcing the Democrats to show their hand. If Netanyahu does indeed speak before a joint session of Congress, will the Democrat sit on their hands? Will they boo the Israeli prime minister? Or, will they obligatorily clap like the lying liars they are with respect to Israel? Hopefully, we shall see.

Here's a perfect example of the "lying liars" part:

Schumer said in a statement that Israel "has no stronger ally than the United States and our relationship transcends any one president or any one prime minister," adding that he "will always welcome the opportunity for the prime minister of Israel to speak to Congress in a bipartisan way."

However, Schumer refused Wednesday to allow Netanyahu, who spoke to Senate Republicans in a private video appearance, to also address Senate Democrats behind closed doors.

So which is it, Chuck? You're either in, or out.

Yes, Israel has no stronger ally than the United States, but let's qualify that statement a bit. Israel has no stronger ally in the U.S. than the Republican Party.

That fact has been (re)confirmed throughout the Israel-Hamas War, as Democrats have continued to whine about the plight of the Palestinian people, ridiculous accused Israel of genocide, continually called for ceasefires as the IDF (Israel Defense Force) continues to knock the snot out of Hamas, and even have even gone so far — a la Chuck Schumer, which Joe Biden seconded — to call for early Israeli elections in hopes that that Netanyahu would be defeated.

I know it's really tough for you, Chucky, but let's be real. Never mind. You're incapable of doing so.
