WATCH LIVE: Pentagon holds news briefing as Senate considers military aid to Ukraine and Israel

Quick Glance: Biden signs Comprehensive Military Aid Package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan

President Biden announces the signing of a substantial $95 billion military assistance package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, with a significant portion of the funds directed towards Ukraine.

Despite initial resistance from Republicans in Congress, Biden has signed the aid package, highlighting the reinforcement of allies and ensuring prompt deliveries to Ukraine.

The assistance for Ukraine includes weapons and military equipment valued at around $1 billion, encompassing artillery shells and air defense missiles.

Military analysts do not foresee significant changes on the frontlines in eastern Ukraine, while the US support aims to aid Ukraine in operations in southern Ukraine, particularly focusing on Crimea and the Black Sea.

Quick Glance: San Francisco's Real Estate Market in Turmoil

The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.

In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'

San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

Volkswagen workers vote yes to unionizing, igniting UAW's push to organize the South

Quick Glance: UAW Secures Historic Victory as Volkswagen Workers in Tennessee Vote for Union Representation

Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga, Tennessee, made history by voting to join the United Auto Workers, marking the first auto factory in the South since the 1940s to unionize.

Nearly three-quarters of 3,613 workers voted yes in a three-day election with high turnout, granting the union a significant first win in its efforts to organize factories of a dozen automakers in the South.

The organizing effort concludes a strong year for the U.S. labor movement, obtaining record wage increases across various industries through strikes and tough negotiations.

The UAW, led by President Shawn Fain, achieved notable successes in negotiations with Detroit automakers last fall, securing substantial raises and benefits through a contentious strike.

Quick Glance: Russia Strikes Chernihiv: 18 Dead, Ukraine Appeals for Air Defense

At least 18 people were killed and over 60 wounded in Chernihiv due to Russian missile strikes. Ukrainian officials emphasized that the attack could have been prevented with adequate air defense systems.

Russia launched three Iskander cruise missiles at the city, located near the Russian border and previously encircled by Russian troops.

Ukraine currently has three Patriot air defense systems but requires 26 for full coverage. Following appeals for more systems, Germany pledged to send an additional one.

A $60 billion aid package for Ukraine is stalled in the US Congress, allowing Russia to exploit ammunition and air defense shortages and gain ground in the east.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strike Damages Iranian Air Defense System Without Detection, Officials Say

An Israeli airstrike on Iran on Friday damaged an air defense system, according to Western and Iranian officials, and appeared calculated to deliver a message that Israel could bypass Iran’s defensive systems undetected and paralyze them.

The strike damaged a defensive battery near Natanz, a city in central Iran that is critical to the country’s nuclear weapons program, according to the officials.

The relatively limited scope of Israel’s strike and the muted response from Iranian officials, however, seem to have eased tensions.

It was confirmed that Israel had deployed aerial drones and at least one missile fired from a warplane, as stated by three Western and two Iranian officials.

Quick Glance: George Santos ends independent bid for US House seat

Following his expulsion from Congress after a bipartisan vote on December 1, George Santos, a Republican representative from New York, is seen leaving the U.S. Capitol. On Tuesday, Santos announced his decision to withdraw his independent candidacy for New York's 1st Congressional District.

In order to prevent a split in the Republican ticket between himself and the incumbent Republican candidate, Nick LaLota, in case he secures the Republican nomination after the New York primary on June 25, Santos opted out of an independent run, as reported by Politico.

Nancy Goroff and John Avlon are currently competing for the Democratic nomination for the congressional seat during the New York primary.

Despite concluding his independent candidacy, Santos hinted at a possible future congressional run. He expressed, 'The future holds countless possibilities, and I am prepared, eager, and capable to step up and fight for my country at any time.'

Quick Glance: TikTok Ban Threat: ByteDance Prefers Closure Over Sale, Insiders Say

ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, would prefer to shut down its loss-making app rather than sell it if all legal options to fight legislation to ban the platform from app stores in the US are exhausted, said four sources.

TikTok accounts for a small share of ByteDance’s total revenues and daily active users, so the parent would rather have the app shut down in the US in a worst-case scenario than sell it to a potential American buyer, they said.

ByteDance would not agree to sell one of its most valuable assets – its “secret source” – to rivals, said the four sources, referring to the TikTok algorithm.

After facing challenges regarding bans, the short-form video app has encountered partial and attempted prohibitions in the US and other nations.

Quick Glance: Focus on Support for Israel and Ukraine by Mike Johnson

House Speaker Mike Johnson is heavily advocating for support for Israel and Ukraine while trying to push a national security package through the House.

Johnson faces the challenge of juggling the Republican Party's divided support for Kyiv's defense while feeling the pressure to pass a comprehensive aid package for U.S. allies.

In his quest to find ways to promote funding for Ukraine, Johnson is engaging in discussions with the White House and former president Donald Trump. The divisive dynamic within the party and the urgency of the situation in Ukraine present a significant challenge for Johnson.

Johnson must craft a package that includes some policy wins for Republicans while also gaining Democratic approval. Despite concerns from some progressive Democrats regarding support for Israel, most Democratic lawmakers have rallied behind the Senate-passed package.

The representative of Israel at the international art fair is calling for an immediate ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza.

Ruth Patir’s video installation called (M)otherland was scheduled to open on Saturday at Israel’s national pavilion at the international art show but will remain closed for now.

Patir stated on her website that the artist and curators are showing solidarity with the families of the hostages and the large community in Israel calling for change, rather than canceling themselves or the exhibition.
