Democrats and Republicans came together after months of political turmoil over renewed American support for repelling Russia's invasion.

US House approves $61 billion aid for Ukraine, $26 billion for Israel

Democrats and Republicans came together after months of political turmoil over renewed American support for repelling Russia's invasion.

The House swiftly approved USD 95 billion in foreign aid for Ukraine, Israel and other US allies in a rare Saturday session, Democrats and Republicans joining together after months of political turmoil over renewed American support for repelling Russia's invasion.
With overwhelming support, the $61 billion in aid for Ukraine delivered a strong showing of American backing as lawmakers race to deliver a fresh round of U.S. support to the war-torn ally. Some lawmakers cheered on the House floor and waved blue-and-yellow flags of Ukraine.
The unusual process, with each bill having its own vote, allowed unique coalitions to form around the bills, pushing them forward. The whole package will go to the Senate, where passage in the coming days is nearly assured. President Joe Biden has promised to sign it immediately.
&ldquo;We did our work here, and I think history will judge it well," said embattled Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who is risking his own job to marshal the package to passage.
Biden, in a statement, thanked Johnson, Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries and the bipartisan coalition of lawmakers &ldquo;who voted to put our national security first.&rdquo; &ldquo;I urge the Senate to quickly send this package to my desk so that I can sign it into law and we can quickly send weapons and equipment to Ukraine to meet their urgent battlefield needs,&rdquo; the president said.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine said he was &ldquo;grateful&rdquo; to both parties in the House and "personally Speaker Mike Johnson for the decision that keeps history on the right track,&rdquo; he said on X.
&ldquo;Thank you, America!&rdquo; he said on X, formerly Twitter.
The weekend scene presented a striking display of congressional action after months of dysfunction and stalemate fueled by Republicans, who hold the majority but are deeply split over foreign aid, particularly for Ukraine as it fights Russia's invasion. Johnson relied on Democratic support to ensure the military and humanitarian package won approval.
The morning opened with a somber and serious debate and unusual sense of purpose as Republican and Democratic leaders united to urge quick approval, saying that would ensure the United States supported its allies and remained a leader on the world stage. The House's visitor galleries crowded with onlookers.
&ldquo;The eyes of the world are upon us, and history will judge what we do here and now,&rdquo; said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee Passage through the House cleared away the biggest hurdle to Biden's funding request, first made in October as Ukraine's military supplies began to run low. The GOP-controlled House struggled for months over what to do, first demanding that any assistance be tied to policy changes at the U.S.-Mexico order, only to immediately reject a bipartisan Senate offer along those very lines.
Reaching an endgame has been an excruciating lift for Johnson that has tested both his resolve and his support among Republicans, with a small but growing number now openly urging his removal from the speaker's office. Yet congressional leaders cast the votes as a turning point in history &mdash; an urgent sacrifice as US allies are beleaguered by wars and threats from continental Europe to the Middle East to the Indo-Pacific.
&ldquo;Sometimes when you are living history, as we are today, you don't understand the significance of the actions of the votes that we make on this House floor, of the effect that it will have down the road,&rdquo; said New York Rep. Gregory Meeks, the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. &ldquo;This is a historic moment.&rdquo; Opponents, particularly the hard-right Republicans from Johnson's majority, argued that the US should focus on the home front, addressing domestic border security and the nation's rising debt load, and they warned against spending more money, which largely flows to American defense manufacturers, to produce weaponry used overseas.
Still, Congress has seen a stream of world leaders visit in recent months, from Zelenskyy to Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, all but pleading with lawmakers to approve the aid. Globally, the delay left many questioning America's commitment to its allies.
At stake has also been one of Biden's top foreign policy priorities &mdash; halting Russian President Vladimir Putin's advance in Europe. After engaging in quiet talks with Johnson, the president quickly endorsed Johnson's plan, paving the way for Democrats to give their rare support to clear the procedural hurdles needed for a final vote.
&ldquo;We have a responsibility, not as Democrats or Republicans, but as Americans to defend democracy wherever it is at risk,&rdquo; Jeffries said during the debate.
While aid for Ukraine will likely win a majority in both parties, a significant number of progressive Democrats are expected to vote against the bill aiding Israel as they demand an end to the bombardment of Gaza that has killed thousands of civilians.
At the same time, Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, has loomed large over the fight, weighing in from afar via social media statements and direct phone calls with lawmakers as he tilts the GOP to a more isolationist stance with his &ldquo;America First&rdquo; brand of politics.
Ukraine's defense once enjoyed robust, bipartisan support in Congress, but as the war enters its third year, a bulk of Republicans oppose further aid. Trump ally Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., offered an amendment to zero out the money, but it was rejected.
At one point, Trump's opposition essentially doomed the bipartisan Senate proposal on border security. This past week, Trump also issued a social media post that questioned why European nations were not giving more money to Ukraine, though he spared Johnson from criticism and said Ukraine's survival was important.
Still, the ultraconservative House Freedom Caucus has derided the legislation as the &ldquo;America Last&rdquo; foreign wars package and urged lawmakers to defy Republican leadership and oppose it because the bills do not include border security measures.
Johnson's hold on the speaker's gavel has also grown more tenuous in recent days as three Republicans, led by Greene, supported a &ldquo;motion to vacate" that can lead to a vote on removing the speaker. Egged on by far-right personalities, she is also being joined by a growing number of lawmakers including Reps. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., who is urging Johnson to voluntarily step aside, and Paul Gosar, R-Ariz.
The package includes several Republican priorities that Democrats endorse, or at least are willing to accept. Those include proposals that allow the US to seize frozen Russian central bank assets to rebuild Ukraine; impose sanctions on Iran, Russia, China and criminal organizations that traffic fentanyl; and legislation to require the China-based owner of the popular video app TikTok to sell its stake within a year or face a ban in the United States.
Still, the all-out push to get the bills through Congress is a reflection not only of politics, but realities on the ground in Ukraine. Top lawmakers on national security committees, who are privy to classified briefings, have grown gravely concerned about the situation in recent weeks. Russia has increasingly used satellite-guided gliding bombs &mdash; which allow planes to drop them from a safe distance &mdash; to pummel Ukrainian forces beset by a shortage of troops and ammunition.

USA: bill to terminate Pakistan as major non-NATO ally introduced in Congress

For Pakistan to retain the designation, the bill suggests an annual certification from the US President with conditions like action against terror networks.

In a sign of growing international pressure on Pakistan, an American lawmaker has introduced a legislation in the US House of Representatives regarding the Asian country.
The legislation proposes termination of Pakistan's designation as a major non-NATO ally. For Pakistan to retain the designation, the bill suggests an annual certification from the US President with certain conditions.
The legislation was introduced by Congressman Andy Biggs from Arizona. It needs to be passed by the House of Representatives and the Senate before being signed into law by the President.
Normally, such bills do not fructify, but the present bill reflects the sentiments of the lawmakers against Pakistan, which is known for harbouring terrorism and using it as a matter of State policy.
For any further continuation of Pakistan's designation as a major non-NATO ally, the bill asks the US president to issue a certification that the country has shown progress in arresting and prosecuting Haqqani Network senior leaders and mid-level operatives and has taken steps to demonstrate its commitment to prevent the Haqqani Network from using any Pakistani territory as a safe haven.
Both conditions are seen to be a tall order for Pakistan given that many in the US believe the Haqqani network to be a veritable arm of the ISI.

'Indians-Americans 1% of population, but pay 6% of taxes': US lawmaker Rich McCormick praises community

McCormick added that 1 out of every 5 doctors in his community is of Indian origin.

The Indian-American community received lavish praise from lawmaker Rich McCormick during his first speech in the US House of Representatives, as per news agency ANI.
The representative for 6th Congressional District of Georgia said that despite being around 1% of the American population, Indian-Americans contribute to about 6% of the taxes.
McCormick added that 1 out of every 5 doctors in his community is of Indian origin. "They represent some of the best citizens we have in America," the lawmaker said.

USA: 100-yr-old infamous record broken as Republican Kevin McCarthy's House Speaker bid fails again

The House of Representative's new session is yet to be launched, new members haven't been sworn in, and official business is pending.

In a sign of turmoil within the Republican party, the US House of Representatives failed to elect a Speaker for the third straight day. Republican leader Kevin McCarthy broke a 100-year-old record by losing 10 rounds of voting by 5 January 2023.
With Republican members divided over whom to elect as Speaker, the House of Representatives controlled by the party is in limbo. The new session is yet to be launched, new members haven't been sworn in, and official business is pending.
McCarthy resisted under growing pressure to somehow find the votes he needed or step aside so the House could open fully and get on with the business of governing.
The incoming Republican chairmen of the House's Foreign Affairs, Armed Services and Intelligence committees all said national security was at risk.

A new generation of conservative Republicans, many aligned with Trump's Make America Great Again agenda, want to upend business as usual in Washington, and were committed to stopping McCarthy's rise without concessions to their priorities.

The mass shooting at the Robb Elementary School in Uvalde was horrific, but not new in America. At least 40 such incidents have taken place at American schools, colleges, and universities in 2022 so far. Reacting to the Texas shooting, US President Joe Biden gave an impassioned speech for change, but it is unlikely.
One of the biggest enablers of such shooting incidents is believed to be lenient gun laws, making it easy for people to buy firearms. But repeated attempts to make gun laws stricter have faced hurdle after hurdle in the US Congress.
Many legislators belonging to the Republican party oppose stricter laws, claiming that it would be a violation of the Second Amendment of the US Constitution, which states that "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed".

After the latest tragedy, Senator Ted Cruz said, "You see politicians trying to politicise it. You see Democrats and a lot of folks in the media whose immediate solution is to try to restrict the Constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens. That doesn't work. It's not effective. It doesn't prevent crime. We know what does prevent crime, which is going after felons and fugitives, and those with serious mental illness."
A few gun control legislations are currently being considered in the US Congress.
One of the bills, called the Enhanced Background Checks Act of 2021, has been passed by the House of Representatives. It was placed on the Senate's legislative calendar after the Texas incident. It aims to close the "Charleston loophole" which allows some licensed gun sales to conclude without a background check.
Another bill, called the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2021, has also been passed by the House. The bill aims to expand background checks for all firearm sales or transfers. It has support from many legislators belonging to both Republican and Democratic camps.
But this is not enough to get it passed. When gun control laws reach the US Senate, they are come under threat from the filibuster.
The filibuster is a rule in the Senate which allows any member to block voting on a bill, simply by not letting the debate on it end. This can involve hours of non-stop speaking, sometimes through the night, to force the other side to withdraw or delay a decision on the bill. To overcome a filibuster and initiate voting, Senators pushing gun control laws would need 60 votes. And this means getting sizeable Republican support, which appears next to impossible.
So, why are Republicans against stricter gun laws, even if it means tragedies like the Texas one? One of the reasons, as President Biden suggested, could be gun lobbies, which do not want firearm sales to go down because of strict laws.
A more fundamental reason could be voter preferences. In a 2020 survey by Pew, 46% people said that the Republican party reflected their views on gun policy, while 42% said that the Democratic party reflected it better. In a 2021 survey by Gallup, 50% people were either satisfied with existing gun laws, or wanted looser laws. 41% were dissatisfied and wanted stricter gun laws.

American intelligence officials showed videos of UFOs or unidentified flying objects during a Congressional hearing on such inexplicable phenomena. At the hearing, Pentagon officials did not disclose new information about what they have labelled "unidentified aerial phenomena" or UAPs.
However, some videos were presented to show the limited amount of information that authorities possess. In one of the videos, triangular shapes were witnessed by personnel from a Navy ship.
Scott Bray of US Naval Intelligence said that the shapes were drones which appeared as triangles because the recording was done through night-vision devices. However, the intelligence official could not explain the other video recorded from an aircraft.
US authorities had also released some UFO videos in 2020. Fleeting glimpses of objects with no apparent propulsion systems have baffled experts and spawned various conspiracy theories. But there's still no conclusive proof of alien life.

With the Russia-Ukraine war in its 11th week, America stepped up its efforts to help Ukraine as it gives a tough fight to its bigger and richer neighbour.
The US House of Representatives approved a fresh USD 40 billion aid package for Ukraine on May 10. This was $7 billion more than what US President Joe Biden had requested.
The aid package was passed with 368 legislators for and 57 against the move. The measure will provide military and economic assistance to Ukraine, help regional allies, replenish weapons that the Pentagon has sent abroad, and provide USD 5 billion to address global food shortages caused by the war's impact on Ukraine's crop production.
The total aid mobilised by America for Ukraine will reach nearly $54 billion with the latest measure. In March 2022, the US Congress had approved support of $13.6 billion.
The Western outlook on the war has changed in recent times, with Russia's floundering campaign giving hope that Ukraine might actually win.

Two years after the US military confirmed that these UFO videos were shot by its pilots, a subcommittee of the US House of Representatives is set to hold an open hearing on these unexplained phenomena, as per the New York Times.
Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs, also called unidentified aerial vehicles, or UAVs, are speculated by some conspiracy theorists to be alien ships.
The 3 videos released in 2020 showed aerial objects flying at amazing speeds through the sky, and even rotating against the wind. Navy pilots who witnessed the incidents were left shocked, confused, and awed.
The upcoming congressional hearing comes nearly a year after the release of a government report on "unidentified aerial phenomena". The report by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence focused on 144 incidents of UFO sightings, but was only able to explain one.
However, the interesting conclusion was that the objects were neither secret US technology, nor part of a "foreign collection program" or "major technological advancement by a potential adversary" according to available data.
The hearing next week will be the first open congressional hearing on UAVs in over 50 years. The House Intelligence Committee&rsquo;s subcommittee on counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and counterproliferation will receive testimonies from two top defence intelligence officials.

Reports: US Senate votes in favour of bill that could break up Big Tech

The US House of Representatives Judiciary Committee has reportedly voted in favour of a bill that would require big tech firms to choose between running a platform and competing on it. The vote completed two days of voting on four bills that are aimed at reining in the power of tech companies in the US. It's worth noting that there has been opposition from both lawmakers and the US Chamber of Commerce against the measures.

According to reports, a bipartisan group of US lawmakers have introduced four bills that aim to check the power of tech giants in the US.

According to reports, a bipartisan group of US lawmakers have introduced four bills that aim to check the power of tech giants in the US. While two bills address the issue of the potential monopolies these large companies employ, another bill would essentially force tech giants to sell assets and be broken up. Reports say the US Chamber of Commerce "strongly opposes" the approach of these bills, saying that they could be ruled unconstitutional.
