WWW.FOXNEWS.COMBernie Sanders to force Senate vote on blocking arms sales to IsraelSen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., plans to force a vote on banning arms sales to Israel, a move that will prove to be a test for Senate Democrats whose position on the Jewish state has shifted in recent weeks.Sanders, an independent who routinely caucuses with Senate Democrats, announced he would force a vote on a pair of resolutions to block the $675 million sale of thousands of bombs and guidance kits for the bombs and to halt the sale of "tens of thousands" of automatic rifles to Israel."U.S. taxpayers have spent tens of billions of dollars in support of the racist, extremist Netanyahu government," Sanders said in a statement. "Enough is enough."WATCH: BERNIE SANDERS REACTS TO TRUMP'S IRAN STRIKES IN REAL TIME AT 'FIGHTING OLIGARCHY' RALLYIts not the first time Sanders has pushed to block arms sales or military aid to the Jewish state. Since December 2023, just months after the conflict between Israel and Hamas began, the lawmaker has either introduced or forced votes on resolutions five times, each intended to block military aid and billions of dollars in munitions and arms.His latest attempt comes after photos revealed starving children in Gaza, which he squarely blamed on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.WATCH: DEM SENATORS BLAME TRUMP FOR IRAN CRISIS AS GOP URGES HIM TO STAND FIRM WITH ISRAEL"The time is long overdue for Congress to use the leverage we have tens of billions in arms and military aid to demand that Israel end these atrocities," he said.The vote, expected late Thursday, comes as Senate Democrats have undergone a tonal shift on Israel since the events of Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas executed a brutal attack on Israeli soil.Sanders' last attempt earlier this year that sought to block over $8billion in arms sales, saw 15 Senate Democrats vote for it, while all Senate Republicans voted against it. Though the resolutions are likely to fail as his previous attempts have, more Democrats are expected to vote alongside him.ISRAELI OFFICIALS OBJECT TO EXPECTED UN SECURITY COUNCIL CEASEFIRE RESOLUTIONEarlier this week, 40 Senate Democrats wrote to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff and called on the administration to push for "a large-scale expansion of humanitarian assistance and services throughout the Gaza Strip."Senate Republicans have largely blamed the reported conditions in Gaza on Hamas, with some calling for more food aid making its way into the Gaza Strip. President Donald Trump vowed that more food centers, administered by Israel, would be coming.Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said he shared Trumps view and that there was a desire to "meet that need and alleviate that pain.""But you got to understand, too, that when you got a terrorist group like Hamas operating in that region, they intercept and divert a lot of that food aid that's going in there," he said. "That's the challenge that the Israelis have. Thats the challenge that we have and other nations around the world."0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 6 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMMSNBC Democrats mock Cory Booker's 'political theater' stunt on the Senate floorDemocratic MSNBC panelists mocked Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., on Wednesday for his recent grandstanding behavior on the Senate floor, arguing it was more about boosting his public image rather than solving problems.Booker accused his fellow Democratic senators on Tuesday of aligning themselves with Trump because they are in favor of passing new police legislation. He claimed that without amendments, the legislation would allow the president to pick winners and losers in terms of who receives the benefits."That is complicity with an authoritarian leader who is trashing our country," Booker said. "It is time for Democrats to have a backbone. It's time for us to fight. It's time for us to draw a line, and when it comes to the safety of my state being denied these grants, that's why I'm standing here."Panelists of MSNBCs "Morning Joe" were not impressed.PROFOUND COWARDICE: BOOKER SLAMS WALTZ FOR FAILURE OF LEADERSHIP, SIGNALGATE ACCOUNTABILITY"Well, its great theater that we just saw. Cory Booker, a good guy, standing up and yelling on the floor of the United States Senate," MSNBC contributor Mike Barnicle said on Wednesday. "What I dont understand is hes yelling at two other Democrats. The Democrats have enough problems in this country defining themselves to people, making sure people know they are alive, they are interested in your life, they are interested in you, solving problems."MSNBC analyst and former Democratic senator Claire McCaskill argued that Booker is simply playing to the desires of the Democratic Partys base."Heres whats going on. The Democratic base is starving for a fighter. Theyre starving for a fight," she said. "They want people to fight Donald Trump, because everyone is so frustrated and angry and depressed at everything hes doing and how hes doing it, and the cowardice of the Republicans across the aisle in the Senate who are knowingly doing terrible things and casting votes that I would never dreamt they would have cast, when I was serving with them in the Senate."But theres another key aspect to this as well, she said, defending Democrats like Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., as people trying to do the best they can under the Trump administration.BOOKER CONCLUDES RECORD 25-HOUR SPEECH AGAINST TRUMP, MUSK, MARKING THE LONGEST EVER ON THE SENATE FLOOR"On the other side, you have Cory Booker unfairly criticizing two strong Democrats that are doing everything they can in their power to fight Donald Trump. And, you know, Amys right. Theres a way to change a bill. And then theres a way to get in the opening segment of Morning Joe and on the front page of The New York Times. And Cory chose the latter, rather than the former," she said. "He knew if he did this, it would be a viral moment, and he would be associated with Democrats who are willing to fight.""Meanwhile, this bill didnt impact funding, and there probably was not the leverage to do what Cory would like to do, which is defy Donald Trump, because we dont have the votes in the Senate," McCaskill said.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURECLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPShe later added, "Cory knows we dont have the votes in the Senate to do what the base wants us to do. So the way he criticized his colleagues is really unusual, kind of unheard of, and frankly, to me, a little worrisome, with what we have in front of us and the fights we have to the Democratic Party needs to wage next year in the midterms."0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 6 Visualizações 0 Anterior

WWW.FOXNEWS.COMMLB twin brothers traded within hours of each other as deadline approachesThe Rogers family is changing lots of their whereabouts.Tyler and Taylor Rogers are twin brothers, both of whom are MLB relievers - they even played together with the San Francisco Giants in 2023 and 2024.The Giants split the brothers up before this season started, trading Taylor to the Cincinnati Refs back in January - but things took another twist for both brothers on Wednesday.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe Reds traded Taylor to the Pittsburgh Pirates in a deal that got them third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes (the son of Charlie). Hours later, the Giants then sent Tyler to the New York Mets.Tyler has been one of the best relievers in the game this year - his 53 appearances lead the majors, and he's made the best of it with a 1.80 ERA. His 77 outings also was the most in baseball last year, and he led the National League in the category in both 2020 and 2021.He owns a lifetime 2.79 ERA, which is something the Mets can appreciate as they bolster their bullpen (they also acquired Gregory Soto from the Baltimore Orioles).ORIOLES' CEDRIC MULLINS REELS IN CATCH OF THE YEAR CANDIDATE JUST DAYS AFTER ROBBING ANOTHER HOME RUNAs for Taylor, he owns a 2.45 ERA this season after posting a 2.40 in 2024 with the Giants. In his 10 seasons, he's mustered up a 3.28 ERA.The Pirates will be Taylor's sixth MLB organization, while Tyler will be out of a Giants uniform for the first time in his seven-year career.Practically the only biological difference between the two relievers is that Tyler is a right-hander, while Taylor deals from the left side.The brothers became the 10th set of twins in MLB history, and when Taylor joined San Francisco, they were the first twins to be teammates since Jose and Ozzie Canseco for the then-Oakland Athletics in 1990. Only five sets of twins, however, have appeared in the same game.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.0 Comentários 0 Compartilhamentos 6 Visualizações 0 Anterior
