"Senate Struggles to Salvage Bipartisan Security Agreement Amid Border Deal Fallout"
TL;DR Summary
A Senate deal on border enforcement measures and Ukraine aid collapsed as Republicans withdrew support, despite President Joe Biden's plea for Congress to "show some spine" and stand up to Donald Trump. The collapse represents McConnell's slipping control of his GOP conference, Trump's growing influence, and Biden's inability to advance aid for Ukraine through Congress. The lack of a national security deal will impact Biden's meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, and both sides are blaming each other for the failure of the bill.
