Trump calls on leftist politicians to drop the bogus lawfare charges against Benjamin Netanyahu during his speech to the Knesset on Monday. (WH video)
On Monday morning, while most of America was asleep, President Donald Trump delivered remarks to The Knesset in Jerusalem, Israel.
President Trump traveled to Israel after he helped broker a historic peace agreement between Hamas and Israel.
During his speech, President Trump took time out to ask the President of Israel to give Prime Minister Netanyahu “A PARDON.”
President Trump: This man is a good man right here. These two men are good men right here.
Hey, I have an idea. Mr. President, why don’t you give him a pardon? Give him a pardon. (large applause – standing ovation)
Come on. By the way, that was not in the speech, as you probably know. But I happen to like this gentleman right over here, and it just seems to make so much sense.
Whether we like it or not, this has been one of the greatest wartime presidents. This has been one of the greatest wartime presidents.
And cigars and champagne, who the hell cares about that?

This was not the first time President Trump spoke out about the leftist witch hunt in Israel against Prime Minister Netanyahu.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft reported in June, Trump erupted after learning Netanyahu had been summoned to Court next Monday for the continuation of a long-running legal witch-hunt.
To make things more insulting, the Netanyahu announcement came 48 hours after Iran and Israel agreed to a ceasefire in their ongoing war. The Bibi-hating leftists did not even wait to give the prime minister time to catch his breath after one of the most consequential battles in Jewish history.
As Trump noted, this is the first time a sitting Israeli Prime Minister has ever been on trial. This politically motivated case concerns ridiculous things like cigars and a Bugs Bunny doll.
Trump went on to demand that the trial be canceled immediately or a pardon given to Netanyahu. He did specify what consequences Israel would face if this travesty of justice continued, though.
Later in a statement released on Truth Social, Trump strongly implied that failure to drop this garbage case would result in the end of all U.S foreign aid to Israel.
It is terrible what they are doing in Israel to Bibi Netanyahu. He is a War Hero, and a Prime Minister who did a fabulous job working with the United States to bring Great Success in getting rid of the dangerous Nuclear threat in Iran. Importantly, he is right now in the process of negotiating a Deal with Hamas, which will include getting the Hostages back.”
How is it possible that the Prime Minister of Israel can be forced to sit in a Courtroom all day long, over NOTHING (Cigars, Bugs Bunny Doll, etc.)? It is a POLITICAL WITCH HUNT, very similar to the Witch Hunt that I was forced to endure. This travesty of “Justice” will interfere with both Iran and Hamas negotiations. In other words, it is INSANITY doing what the out-of-control prosecutors are doing to Bibi Netanyahu.
The United States of America spends Billions of Dollars a year, far more than on any other Nation, protecting and supporting Israel. We are not going to stand for this. We just had a Great Victory with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu at the helm — And this greatly tarnishes our Victory. LET BIBI GO, HE’S GOT A BIG JOB TO DO!
Right now, America currently forks over about $4 billion in military assistance to the Jewish State.
This is more foreign aid than almost any other country on Earth receives from the U.S.
Trump continued to press the issue during his Knesset speech on Monday.
These corrupt leftists are using this lawfare tactic to take down their opposition in the US, Brazil, Israel, South Korea, etc. It’s time that all stopped.
