“I have signed a declaration to use emergency authorities to expedite the delivery of approximately $4 billion in military assistance to Israel. The decision to reverse the Biden Administration’s partial arms embargo, which wrongly withheld a number of weapons and ammunition from Israel, is yet another sign that Israel has no greater ally in the White House than President Trump.”
The Trump Administration
president
donald trump
Our latest analysis uncovered >$230 MILLION in spending by pro-Israel interest groups benefiting President Donald Trump since 2020. Miriam Adelson's Preserve America PAC is by far the biggest spender, pouring $215 million+ into U.S. presidential elections to help Trump.
The Republican Jewish Coalition, an AIPAC ally, has spent >$14 million supporting Trump since 2020.
vice president
jd vance
Vice President JD Vance has received >$167,000 in campaign contributions from the Israel lobby. However, Vance’s mentor, pro-Israel billionaire Peter Thiel, spent $15 million dollars funding his 2022 U.S. Senate campaign in Ohio.
Thiel co-founded Palantir Technolgies, a CIA-backed analytics firm that helps Israel generate 'kill lists' of Palestinians in Gaza. In January 2024, Palantir agreed to a strategic partnership with the Israeli Defense Ministry to supply technology to be used in the genocide in Gaza.
Secretary of Defense
Pete Hegseth
Trump selected Fox & Friends Weekend co-host Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense. Hegseth is a fanatical Christian Zionist and pro-Israel war hawk with an astounding lack of experience. He was confirmed in the Senate by a vote of 51-50, with the Vice President stepping in to break the tie. Hegseth earned the fewest confirmation votes of any Defense Secretary in U.S. History.
Pete Hegseth has called the two-state solution “lip service” and “effectively dead”, and called ceasefire negotiations “blackmail by Hamas.”
In 2016, he said his time in the army turned him into a supporter of Israel: “After being in the army and serving in Iraq, I saw different worldviews, and I began to understand Israel’s place in the world and where antisemitism comes from… This is not some mystical land that can be undone, this is the story of the chosen people.”
Hegseth also said "there's no doubt this is a fight that Israel needs to finish" while lamenting "mainstream media's call for a Palestinian state."
In 2020, he called for massive U.S. military strikes on Iran to take out infrastructure and possibly cultural sites.
Secretary of state
marco rubio
Marco Rubio, formerly U.S. Senator from Florida, has collected >$1 MILLION in campaign contributions from AIPAC and the Israel lobby since first elected to the Senate in 2010.
Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem
Trump selected South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem as his Secretary of Homeland Security. In March 2024, she signed a bill into law that conflates criticism of Israel with antisemitism, supporting the Israel lobby’s efforts to censor free speech in America.
In May 2024, Noem released a memoir in which she defends killing her own dog, a 14-month old wirehaired retriever named Cricket, because she deemed him “untrainable”.
All nine of South Dakota’s federally recognized tribes have banned Noem from their reservations following her comments alleging tribal leaders in the state were profiting off drug cartel activity.
National Security Advisor
Mike Waltz
Former U.S. Representative (FL-06) Michael Waltz has received nearly $250,000 in campaign contributions from AIPAC and their allies.
Nominee for U.S. Ambassador to the U.N.
Elise Stefanik
Rep. Elise Stefanik has collected >$1 MILLION from pro-Israel interest groups. AIPAC was her top contributor in the 2024 election cycle.
Attorney General
Pam Bondi
Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi has a history of supporting pro-Israel resolutions from her elected office proclaiming that “the State of Florida stands with ISRAEL”.
In an October 2023 interview, Bondi called for the FBI to interrogate and deport American protesters for exercising free speech and rallying against Israel’s genocide of Palestinians.
Director of National Intelligence
Tulsi Gabbard
Former U.S. Representative (HI-02) has received >$46,000 in campaign contributions from the Israel lobby.
