House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) was forced to cancel a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday after a morning meeting between House Republicans and President Donald Trump lasted much longer than expected.
The Washington Examiner confirmed the Johnson-Netanyahu meeting, scheduled for 1:25 p.m. on Thursday, was derailed after lawmakers had still not returned from the White House from their 11 a.m. confab. The Republicans in attendance arrived just in time for the vote series beginning at 4 p.m., but Netanyahu was seen leaving the Capitol about an hour before that.
