NEW: Buried in the new defense bill is a policy to fill weapon “gaps” Israel gets as other nations embargo it.
As in: citing "wartime" needs, the US armed Israel’s genocide.
Nations responded by restricting weapons to Israel.
Now, citing those very restrictions, the US may send Israel *even more.*

Trump is backpedaling on his support for the release of the Sept. 2 boat strike video.
On December 3, he said he would have "no problem" releasing the video.
Today, he said he "didn't say that" (he did) and now says, "whatever Hegseth wants to do is OK with me."
