The former president and many of his allies have played down the riot and boosted support for those who stormed the Capitol. A smaller wing of the party has strongly criticized Trump and the rioters. In between those Republican poles is a wavering middle, including many of Trump's 2024 nomination rivals and Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R., Calif.), who is facing calls for the House to vote on expunging Trump's two impeachments.
U.S., Allies Hold Record-Setting Military Exercise in Australia in Message Aimed at China
SHOALWATER BAY TRAINING AREA, Australia-At this military firing range in Australia's north, American jet fighters dropped 500-pound bombs on a hillside. Korean, Australian and American artillery units opened fire soon after. A Japanese surface-to-air missile system stood nearby.
The demonstration over the weekend, which involved more than a dozen artillery pieces and aircraft firing for about an hour, helped to kick off a major two-week biennial training exercise involving the U.S. and its allies that officials say is the most expansive in the exercise's history.
