Deep dives
President Biden to visit Israel amid Gaza conflict
President Biden is traveling to Israel this week to show support for the country in the face of recent terrorist attacks by Hamas. The administration has increased military presence in the region, deploying a second aircraft carrier, fighter jets, and a rapid response force. This visit comes after Israeli forces killed a top commander in Hamas' al-Kasam Brigades. The purpose of Biden's trip is to consult on next steps and demonstrate unwavering support for Israel.
Speaker of the House still not elected
The House still does not have a speaker as Jim Jordan failed to receive enough votes in the first floor vote. 20 Republicans joined Democrats in voting for a different candidate. Steve Scalise and Kevin McCarthy initially received votes, but have since thrown their support behind Jordan. A second vote is expected later today.
