Vice President Kamala Harris was blasted on social media over a video "announcing the country's first National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia" with most users taking issue with the timing of the post just weeks after the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel. 

"Taking on hate is a national priority," Harris posted on X, rolling out the White House plan to "combat a surge of hate in America."

The timing of the post was immediately criticized on social media, and many also pointed out the recent surge in hate crimes against Jewish people.

"On the same day Hamas leadership goes on international TV and declares their goal is to erase Jews and Israel off the planet," The Spectator editor Stephen L. Miller posted on X. "Just stunning."

"According to the FBI director, Jews make up 2.4% of the US population but are the targets of 60% of hate crimes," political commentator Gad Saad posted on X. "This is why it is apparently important to fight Islamophobia according to the White House." Read more and see video here.

The House of Representatives passed its multi-billionaire Israel aid bill offset by IRS funding cuts. 

On Thursday, in a 226 to 196 vote, the GOP approved legislation to send $14.3 billion in federal aid to Israel amid enduring relentless attacks by Hamas terrorists. 

12 Democrats joined Republicans in the vote to pass the bill. Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY) voted against the bill. 

Republican Policy Committee Chairman Gary Palmer (R-Ala) praised the bill’s passing, saying, “With this piece of legislation, we are helping an ally in need while also cutting funding from Joe Biden’s weaponized IRS. These funds are better used supporting Israel than being used by IRS agents to audit middle-class Americans.”

In a statement to Fox News Digital, Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Iowa) highlighted the fact that among those murdered in Israel were American citizens.
