US Republican 'sorry' for repeatedly pouring water in colleague's bag
Tuesday, 18 June 2024 A US Republican representative has said she is "truly ashamed" after being filmed pouring water into the bag of a Democratic colleague.
The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions.

As the deadline to prevent a government shutdown rapidly approaches, former President Donald Trump has dismissed a bipartisan agreement between Republicans and Democrats. Trump pushed for a controversial new deal that includes a three-month government funding extension and a two-year suspension of the debt ceiling, a proposal that was swiftly rejected by the House of Representatives. With crucial public services and federal workers at risk, Congress must act fast to avoid a shutdown. Will lawmakers come together in time to avert this crisis just days before Christmas?

The Pentagon has addressed growing speculation surrounding mysterious drone sightings over New Jersey, dismissing claims that the drones are being launched by an "Iranian mothership" off the U.S. East Coast. The allegations, initially raised by Republican Congressman Jeff Van Drew, stirred fears of Iranian involvement in the unexplained drone activity. The sightings have been reported across more than a dozen New Jersey counties, with drones observed near key military and civilian sites, including the Picatinny Arsenal and even President Trump's Bedminster golf course. The Pentagon swiftly denied any connection to Iranian forces, with Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh asserting that there is no Iranian vessel off the U.S. coast. Despite the official denial, speculation continues to swirl, fueling concerns over potential international tensions and the mysterious origins of the drones.
