Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Shea Stephens. President Trump outlined a peace plan to end the war in Gaza Monday after hosting a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. But NPR's Tamara Keith reports that it is not a done deal yet.
The plan calls for the release of the hostages, demilitarization of Gaza, and rebuilding overseen by a board of peace led by Trump.
We're right there. We're right there. First time in Thousands of years, I think you can probably say, if you really look into it.
Trump said he has the backing of leaders in the region and, quote, I'm hearing that Hamas wants to get this done.
Israel would have my fallback in to finish the job of destroying the threat of Hamas. But I hope that we're going to have a deal for peace.
Netanyahu offered qualified support. Tamara Keith, NPR News.
Congressional leaders of both parties left a meeting with President Trump Monday without agreeing on a plan to avert a government shutdown this week. Senate Majority Leader John Thune says Democrats are not willing to compromise.
We are willing to sit down and work with them on some of the issues they want to talk about, whether it's the extension of premium tax credits with reforms. We're happy to have that conversation. But as of right now, this is a hijacking of the American people, and it's the American people who are going to pay the price.
House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries says his party is insisting on one issue.
What did Trump propose in his new Gaza peace plan and how did leaders respond?
We're deadly serious about addressing the Republican-caused health care crisis because it's a deadly serious issue for the American people.
Jeffrey says more than 20 million Americans will face sharply higher health care costs if Republicans do not deal with expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits. After meeting with congressional leaders, President Trump posted an AI-generated video on social media depicting a profane Chuck Schumer complaining about Democrats. The video also shows Jeffries wearing a sombrero and a mustache.
