⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇱— Tucker Carlson on US-Israel relations:

➡️“US should disconnect from Israel, stop military/economic aid. They act against American interests. They may treat us as enemy (as in past), but we should treat them like normal country.”

➡️“Time for healthy relationship: Israel pays own bills, funds own military, acts within its economy/population constraints. That’s what normal countries do — live with testy neighbors, make accommodations.”

➡️“No country acts with total impunity knowing larger nation backstops it. That doesn’t exist naturally — it’s not natural.”

➡️Calls for ending ~$3.8B annual aid amid Iran/Lebanon war, Hormuz crisis — argues Israel burdens US strategy.
