Trump has largely watched from the sidelines five months into a war that has cast a shadow over Biden's re-election campaign. He has expressed general support for Israel's military campaign against Hamas, claimed the war wouldn't have happened on his watch and largely avoided specifics about how it should end and what should happen after.


Lawmakers Resolve Dispute Over Border Funds as Partial Shutdown Looms

WASHINGTON-Lawmakers who are finishing writing six annual spending bills have resolved a last-minute roadblock over border funding, setting the stage for Congress to review and approve the legislation on a tight timeline that could take them to the brink of a partial government shutdown this weekend.

Congressional negotiators from both parties late Monday reached a deal on the provisions within the Department of Homeland Security's funding bill, according to a person familiar with the agreement. That bill got caught in an 11th-hour tangle with the White House over border spending, which has become a top issue in many swing states during the 2024 presidential-election year.
