Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., has compared America's practice of doling out aid to foreign countries to a preposterous hypothetical scenario in which an individual waters their neighbor's yard while their own house burns.
"US foreign aid spending is like watering the neighbor’s yard while your house is on fire," he tweeted.
The congressman followed up his initial comment by sharing an AI-generated image of House Speaker Mike Johnson holding a hose as flames emerge from a house behind him.
