🦅 American News 📰

Senate Pushes $150 Billion Defense

• The U.S. Senate narrowly advanced a massive GOP reconciliation package that includes a $150 billion boost to military funding in a 51‑50 vote decided by Vice President Vance.

He claims Israel has accepted the terms needed to begin the pause “during which time we will work with all parties to end the War.” A detailed report on those discussions highlights persistent gaps between temporary truce offers and demands for a lasting resolution. Deep political divisions remain over whether this is a genuine peace effort or just another temporary armistice.

For preppers, it’s a reminder that foreign powers often talk big but act small when crisis hits.
