Senate Passes $95 Billion Aid Package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan Despite Trump's Opposition

The Senate approved a $95 billion foreign aid package, including military support for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, with a bipartisan majority despite warnings from House Republicans. The bill faced opposition from some Republicans who hoped to keep the border crisis as a campaign issue and were influenced by former President Trump's remarks. Despite this, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell defended the aid, emphasizing its importance for national security. However, some GOP members, led by Sen. Rand Paul, vehemently opposed the bill, delaying proceedings.
