The announcement that the DHS would withhold U.S. funds for disaster relief if a state backed or supported a boycott of Israeli companies even shocked some diehard Israel supporters and White House apologists.

It appears that the intention was to discredit the notion that the Trump administration has an unhealthy relationship with Israel. But this is not the first time something like this has happened, considering that both the state of Texas and individual cities have laws in place that prevent boycotts of Israeli companies, and even the questioning of why Texas tax dollars are sent overseas.
