  • Senate Minority Leader Schumer is getting backlash from some Democrats for saying he would vote in favor of the GOP-backed funding bill to avoid a government shutdown. NBC News' Julie Tsirkin reports the latest from Capitol Hill. Punchbowl News co-founder John Bresnahan, former Rep. Carlos Curbelo and former Rep. Joe Crowley join Ana Cabrera to discuss the potential political impact.

The article from Yahoo News discusses the backlash faced by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for his perceived betrayal of Israel, stemming from his speech at the National March for Israel where he criticized the Israeli government's actions. Schumer, a staunch supporter of Israel, suggested that new elections should be held in Israel, which has led to criticism from both sides of the political spectrum. Republicans and some Democrats have accused him of interfering in Israel's internal affairs, while pro-Palestinian groups have criticized him for not going far enough in condemning Israel's policies. The controversy highlights the deep divisions within the Democratic Party and the broader American political landscape regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
