Democratic Sen. Andy Kim of New Jersey said Sunday that a bipartisan short-term government funding bill is the best path to averting a shutdown this week, highlighting the challenges congressional Republicans potentially face in advancing a plan without Democratic votes. “Republicans are in charge of this process right now,” Kim told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.” Kim accused House Speaker Mike Johnson, whose GOP leadership team unveiled a Trump-backed stopgap bill on Saturday, of walking away from “ongoing” bipartisan talks. The senator said he would prefer to vote for a bill that extends current funding levels for…

CNN — Canada’s next leader is a relative political newcomer, coming instead from a decades-long career in finance where he steered governments through major global crises and periods of upheaval — experience he’s hoping to now leverage as he prepares to take over from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. It’s an unorthodox background that could also potentially stand Mark Carney in good stead as Canada seeks to counter a looming economic confrontation with its giant southern neighbor – US President Donald Trump’s trade war. Carney was elected Sunday to lead Canada’s Liberal Party into the next federal elections later this year.…

CNN — Donald Trump’s second presidency will take a novel path this week as he turns to Congress to enshrine part of his effort to transform the country — after weeks of wielding vast and questionable executive power. House Republicans hope to vote on a bill to extend federal funding until the end of September. If they succeed, after dropping talks with Democrats on a bipartisan measure, they’ll trigger a showdown in the Senate that could end in a damaging government shutdown. Democrats will then have to decide whether they’ll oppose the measure by mounting a filibuster. If they block…
CNN — Usha Vance is a private person in a very public job. With her husband JD Vance’s rapid political elevation to President Donald Trump’s second-in-command, she stepped away from a successful legal career and into an unelected and ceremonial role that comes with no manual, an automatic global platform, and plenty of scrutiny from the American public and the media. She faces her first test this weekend. After not speaking publicly or participating in any media interviews in the seven weeks of the Trump administration, Usha Vance is embarking on her first major solo trip as second lady, leading…
Editor’s Note:This analysis was originally published in CNN’s Meanwhile in America newsletter. Read past issues and subscribe here. JD Vance is a different kind of vice president. He’s not the Machiavellian master of Washington who works in the shadows – like Dick Cheney. Neither is he the safe pair of foreign policy hands – like a George H.W. Bush or Joe Biden. The youthful Vance seems instead to have fashioned himself as the personification of his boss Donald Trump’s most extreme social media posts. His provocation of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office last week ignited a diplomatic…
