The White House and lawmakers weigh linking Ukraine and Israel aid

Jump

  • The Palestinians now have a response to anybody who says they should just compromise with Israel.

    "Should Ukraine just compromise with Russia and give up their land?"

  • Cutting off food, water and electricity for 2.3 million people.

    • House GOP tanks its own funding bill, edging closer to shutdown

    Jump

  • McCarthy and his "moderates" could pass the budget (that he already agreed to) with Democratic support.

    The only reason he isn't is because he would lose his speakership.
