Ukrainian servicemen told CNN the US House vote to approve military aid provides a much-needed shot in the arm. First, few Republicans — including some who oppose Johnson — want to be seen following the lead of the House’s most notorious cranks and bigots. Second, Trump doesn’t want the Republican caucus to turn into an embarrassing circular firing squad while he is running for president. (It’s remarkable that Trump is worried that other Republicans will make him look bad.) Third, Democrats have signaled that they will help Johnson keep his job after he courageously did the right thing. And finally, no one appears to want Johnson’s job who could also get the job.

It is located on the site of the former business district of the city during the 1880s and 1890s, since mostly-demolished. Citizen Public House is exactly as the name suggests -- a wide open, dark-wooded, democratic space for craft beers, house cocktails, and, of course, socializing. Full of expansive tables with plenty of seating for large groups, the place truly feels something like a traditional public house.

Lyman Farewell, Cook and Hall, the Allied Architects Association, the Regional Planning Commission, Frank Lloyd Wright, William Lee Woollett, Stanton & Stockwell, and landscape architect Ralph Cornell all contributed plans or partial plans, through the late 1950s. There was a "Mulholland Committee" to adopt one, and the location was put to the public for a vote in the late 1920s. The public voted overwhelmingly to confirm the location, but the city and county differed on which plan to adopt.

Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr. said he was "anguished and devastated" by Payne's death. The governor said in a statement that he and first lady Tammy Murphy are "deeply saddened by the tragic passing of our friend, and a steadfast champion for the people of New Jersey." A Newark, New Jersey native, Payne was first elected to represent New Jersey’s 10th Congressional District in Washington in 2012, succeeding his father in the post. He has also served on the council in Newark, New Jersey and as a freeholder in Essex County, New Jersey. The six amendments ultimately failed to garner the necessary support on the floor to be included in the final passage.

The most important development for the party in all of this is that the rest of the caucus has realized that going along with the arsonists — all of whom have safe seats and would be happy to throw their bombs from the House minority — amounts to politically suicidal appeasement. Biden urged Benjamin Netanyahu to refrain from retaliation against Iran even though its attack appeared to defy the president’s own warning after Oct. 7. One faction, comprising an overwhelming majority of the House GOP caucus, is interested in accomplishing the possible.

The House on Saturday passed a key package that provides aid to Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific region, while also addressing GOP legislative priorities, such as sanctions on Iran and a potential ban on TikTok. In March, House lawmakers approved a bill that would give TikTok roughly six months to sell or the app would be prohibited from US app stores and from “internet hosting services” that support it. Gambino said the Glassell Park area where the home is located is popular among artists, musicians and actors.

OldTownScottsdale.com was created with the goal of becoming the leading online resource for the 3.8 million people living in “The Valley of the Sun” and the 9.1+ million who visit the Scottsdale area each year. Heralded by James Beard Foundation award nominee Chef Bernie Kantak, Citizen Public House offers a contemporary approach to gastropub eats. The unpretentious Old Town restaurant has nabbed numerous awards and accolades since its opening in 2011. And guests come back again and again for their fine cocktails and pub-style fare, which includes the signature mac and cheese, crab cakes with oaxacan chile remoulade, sauced short ribs, and of course, the original chopped salad. The swanky, speakeasy-style lounge is an extension of the restaurant that’s effortlessly hidden above the main floor.

Still, officials had said that court approval shouldn’t be a substitute for congressional authorization, especially since communications companies could cease cooperation with the government if the program is allowed to lapse. Barely missing its midnight deadline, the Senate had approved the bill by a vote hours earlier with bipartisan support, extending for two years the program known as Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. If a tie happened, Trump would likely become president, because a tie would go to the House. The voting delegations would be those voted into the House after this year's congressional elections. "I would be very surprised if we have a turnout rate like we saw in 2020," McDonald said. "And the people who would most likely then not participate ... are going to be these lower-education voters. And so it's going to pose a real challenge to the Trump campaign, to energize these folks yet again to vote in 2020."

The bar, topped with stainless steel, serves a full list of drinks prepared by the resident mixologists (several of which are set on fire), in addition to exhaustive wine and beer lists. And while the beverages alone are reason enough to stop by, the public house has a full menu of modern American fare as well -- everything from bacon brittle and pub pork cheeks to filet mignon asada tacos. "Since the Israel-Gaza war began, journalists have been paying the highest price- their lives-to defend our right to the truth. Each time a journalist dies or is injured, we lose a fragment of that truth," CPJ Program Director Carlos Martínez de la Serna said in a statement. One organizer complained that the White House Correspondents' Association - which represents the hundreds of journalists who cover the president - largely has been silent since the first weeks of the war about the killings of Palestinian journalists.

"This is definitely the exact kind of house where you would dream," Gambino said in an interview with USA TODAY. "It's a very special house where people immediately get, you know, emotionally connected when they're there." Biden still leans into his message of "investing in America" and promotes the same policies. But nearly a month has passed since Biden said "Bidenomics" during public remarks.

Massie added he believes a motion to vacate — a rarely used procedural tool to remove the House speaker — will happen eventually. Greene argued that more House Republicans will support their effort after going home over recess and speaking with their constituents. Austin added that the package of bills will “save lives” and that the “world is watching” what the United States does. “When faced with the question of whether to provide offensive aid to further this conflict, we believe there is a moral imperative to find another path," the statement said. More than 34,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the Israel-Hamas war began in October, according to the Ministry of Health there. "US security aid [to Israel] constitutes a dangerous escalation and aggression against the Palestinian people," Abu Rudeineh added.

The police hurried to extinguish the flames, and he was taken to a hospital burn unit, gravely injured. The journey that ended with a man setting himself on fire on Friday outside the Manhattan courthouse where Donald J. Trump was being tried seemed to have begun in Florida, with a series of increasingly bizarre outbursts. Law enforcement, including the Secret Service, have instituted extra street closures and other measures to ensure what Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said would be the "highest levels of safety and security for attendees."
