TL;DR Summary
President Biden signed a $1.2 trillion spending bill to fund the US government through September, but it did not include aid for Ukraine, Taiwan, or Israel. The bill passed with bipartisan support in the Senate, but faced opposition within the Republican-led House. The measure provides funding for key federal agencies and the Defense Department, but some Republicans criticized it as too expensive. The bill's passage was marked by deep partisan divides and threats within the Republican party, with conservative Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene threatening to force a vote to remove Speaker Mike Johnson.
