  • A majority of House Democrats voted against Israel aid on Tuesday for the 2nd time in recent months.
  • It's mostly because Democrats are insisting the aid be paired with more Ukraine aid.
  • But it's also a product of growing fatigue with Israel amid the devastating war in Gaza.

In recent months, Democrats have repeatedly done something that once seemed politically suicidal: block billions of dollars in aid to Israel from reaching the president's desk.
