Mitch McCann: US Correspondent on the response to Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to the Unites States

It was a highly divisive speech from Benjamin Netanyahu as thousands protest his visit to the US.  

The Israeli Prime Minister is meeting Vice President Kamala Harris today.  

His talks to the US Congress yesterday were boycotted by dozens of senior lawmakers due to his role facilitating the war and humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.  

US Correspondent Mitch McCann told Mike Hosking the Republicans who showed up were largely supportive, with some calling it 'epic'.  

Whereas he says the Democrats were unhappy, with Nancy Pelosi calling it one of the worst speeches by a foreign dignitary invited to speak to Congress.
