You're a sovereign nation.

I mean, if the United States is getting $48 billion a year out of this relationship with Israel and our investment into Israel, then it's our loss, really.

It's our loss as the United States of America if America doesn't want to appreciate the return on investment with...

the aid that we're providing Israel every single year.

I also told these officials when I met with them that I don't think that Israel does a good enough job highlighting the benefit of our relationship with Israel.

What do I mean by that?

Well, people say, oh, well, they're just trying to interfere in our elections with AIPAC.

First of all, I'm not here to defend AIPAC.

I think that AIPAC should actually have to register with FARA.

However, when we cut off aid to Israel, that's the great thing.

We're not going to need FARA anymore.

Excuse me, we're not going to need AIPAC anymore because the whole point of AIPAC is to convince politicians in Washington, D.C.

to support Israel.

So this whole debate about Israeli interference in our elections, poof, it's gone.

It disappears.

And so we're able to do two things simultaneously.

We're able to help Israel truly become a sovereign nation.

We're gonna take these golden handcuffs, as I like to call them, off of the Israelis, because America first means not dictating what other countries do.

If you're truly a sovereign nation, and I know that you'll agree with me on this, Steve,

America first means not telling other countries what to do.
