"Wait -- Biden, the man who has spent more of his term on vacation than working and has been MIA on vacay during nearly every major event of the past years -- is mad that the House is out for two weeks?" Conservative author and commentator Dana Loesch posted on X.

"In a related story, Biden will be taking another long weekend at the beach and has spent 40% of his presidency on vacation," Fox News contributor Joe Concha posted on X. 

"REALITY CHECK: Joe Biden has spent 40% of his presidency on vacation," GOP strategist Steve Guest posted on X.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

Biden has been chiding GOP leadership in the House over the last few days to pass a $95 billion national security supplemental package to assist Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific that recently passed in the Senate by a vote of 70-29.

"The Republican-led House will not be jammed or forced into passing a foreign aid bill," Johnson said at a press conference afterward.

Johnson, who rejected a border-security compromise that was eventually stripped from the final product, said the Senate's package "does nothing" to secure the U.S.-Mexico border, which has been the GOP's priority.
