McCarthy's Israel Trip Sparks Controversy Over Biden-Netanyahu Relations.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has said he will invite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Washington if President Joe Biden doesn't extend an invitation to the foreign leader. McCarthy has already invited Israeli President Isaac Herzog to speak before Congress in June to mark the country's 75th anniversary. McCarthy tied his lack of talks with the president about lifting the U.S. debt ceiling to the lack of discussions between Biden and Netanyahu about a visit. Their relationship has also been on shaky ground over other diplomatic issues, including Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
