Joseph Lieberman, senator and vice-presidential nominee, dies at 82
Quick Glance: Joe Lieberman, Former US Senator and Vice Presidential Candidate, Passes Away at 82
  • Former U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman from Connecticut, who came close to winning the vice presidency on the Democratic ticket with Al Gore in the disputed 2000 election and nearly became running mate to Republican John McCain eight years later, has passed away.

  • Lieberman passed away in New York City as a result of complications following a fall.

  • His advocacy for issues such as gay rights, civil rights, abortion rights, and environmental causes often earned him praise from many liberals, despite causing discontent among Democrats due to his independent stance and provocations towards Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama during the 2008 campaign.

  • Renowned for his firm foreign policy perspectives, pro-defense inclinations, and robust support for environmental matters, Lieberman was instrumental in the legislative efforts leading to the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security.

Quick Glance: Johnson considers potential Netanyahu speech at Congress following Schumer's critique
  • Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said he is considering inviting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address Congress amid rising tensions between Democrats and the Israeli government leader - a sign of the partisanship edging into the Gaza war.

  • Discussions are ongoing on how Netanyahu could speak with lawmakers, including a joint session of Congress, after the prospect was raised in the House GOP's closed-door conference on Wednesday morning.

  • Democrats have criticized Schumer for his remarks, labeling them as unprecedented and wrong, and Netanyahu is set to speak with Senate Republicans via video on Wednesday.

Quick Glance: Democratic Initiative for Ukraine Aid Vote
  • House Democrats have officially launched their efforts to compel a vote on Ukraine aid to bring the legislation to the floor despite resistance from Republican leadership.

  • Led by Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), the Democrats' request for approval requires 218 signatures to consider a Senate-approved foreign aid package providing $95 billion for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and humanitarian assistance in Gaza.

  • The success rate of requests for approval is extremely low, and it is uncertain whether Democrats will obtain the 218 signatures they seek.

  • Some liberal Democrats are already hesitant about providing more military aid to Israel, while moderate Republicans criticize the Democrats' strategy of insisting on the Senate's version of the foreign aid package.
