Speaker Johnson calls Biden 'off script' with threats to pull Israel support: 'I hope it’s a senior moment'

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said President Biden's recent threat to withhold munitions shipments to Israel was completely unexpected and probably "off script."

Biden said in a Wednesday CNN interview that his administration will halt munitions shipments to Israel if the nation continues with plans to invade the city of Rafah.

"My reaction honestly was — 'Wow, that is a complete turn from what I have been told even in, you know, recent hours," Johnson told Politico in a Wednesday night interview.
