Here's how lawmakers are reacting to the Mayorkas impeachment trial

In the House, lawmakers will consider several separate bills that include aid for Israel and Ukraine this weekend. The pair of votes, which split along partisan lines, swiftly killed a Senate trial that had only just begun, with Democrats and three independents voting to stop the process. The Senate ended the impeachment case against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, bypassing with procedural votes the first attempt by Congress to oust a Cabinet secretary in more than a century and a half. The blink-and-you-missed-it trial marked the culmination of a mostly failed political gambit hatched by House Republicans seeking to cast the limelight on the Biden administration’s handling of the southern border ahead of the general election.

‘Not like other Passovers’: hundreds of Jewish demonstrators arrested after New York protest seder

Jewish groups have staged a number of high-profile antiwar actions in the US since 7 October, shutting down sites from the Capitol to the Statue of Liberty. Jewish activists held another seder on Monday, the first night of Passover, at Columbia’s protest encampment. Jewish communities have often used Passover to protest about global injustice. Tuesday’s protest, organizers said, was inspired by the 1969 Freedom Seder, organized by Arthur Waskow on the anniversary of Dr Martin Luther King Jr’s death. The original Freedom Seder sought to connect the Jewish exodus story with the struggle for civil rights in the US and against the war in Vietnam. The border security bill Speaker Mike Johnson released is not expected to be part of that big bill, further angering the right, and will be considered separately, the sources said.

An entry hall, two-story library, screening room, office, seven bedrooms, eight full bathrooms and four powder rooms are among the living spaces. Celebrated television producer Norman Lear recently relisted his estate in Brentwood for sale at $39.995 million, just slightly above the $39.95 million price he was asking roughly three years ago. Johnson, 34, also serves as the frontman for the pop-rock band Boys Like Girls. As a songwriter and producer, he has collaborated with artists such as Taylor Swift, Avril Lavigne and Jason Derulo. Singer-songwriter Martin Johnson of the new wave band the Night Game has put his home in Hollywood Hills up for sale at $2.295 million. In an interview, Vinnie told me that Madeleine always used to say that Chuck’s Vintage was her imaginary world where she could live in a fairytale and not deal with anyone else.

Spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg called the impeachment articles against the secretary "baseless attacks." Lawmakers are expected to vote on four bills on Saturday — aid for Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan and a forthcoming bill that includes a potential ban on TikTok. But, the final product is expected to be lumped together as one big package that will be sent to the Senate, according to sources familiar. GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham almost sided with the Democrats on the vote to kill the second article of impeachment — before he caught himself, to laughs in the chamber.

The new House package includes a little more than $9 billion in humanitarian aid for Gaza and other conflict zones around the world, which had been a red line for Democrats. Johnson had announced Monday that the House will take up separate bills to provide aid for Israel and Ukraine, heeding demands from the far right to keep the issues separate. House Speaker Mike Johnson defended his approach to the supplemental foreign aid funding in an interview with CNN on Wednesday after the bill text showed a strong similarity to the bipartisan Senate measure. That is according to a 6-0 vote by the bipartisan Communications Standards Commission, which regulates the content of such official communications.

This was a very special show because this particular animatronic group will be the last band standing among the chain’s nearly 500 national locations. Chuck E.

The multilevel home, described as a modern cabin and built in 1978, has a three-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom floor plan that includes a kitchen and dining area with access to a balcony.

Built in 1974, the home contains a little over 2,800 square feet, four bedrooms and three bathrooms. But I’m lucky that I live in New York, which is home to some of the best vintage stores in the world and attracts people globally who come specifically to check them out. Biden said in a statement Wednesday that he "strongly supports" the package of bills, his first explicit endorsement of Johnson's plan. The three-part supplemental aid package — which all together adds up to about $95 billion in aid — looks strikingly similar to a bill that previously passed the Senate but that Johnson refused to bring to the floor.

Anyone who’s a fan of vintage shopping knows that the best vintage goods are worth traveling for. Truth be told, I’ve taken getaways dedicated to finding vintage home decor, furniture and, most of all, jewelry, to Paris, a city that’s a boon for vintage lovers, Barcelona and other places around the world. Speakers included journalist and author Naomi Klein, Palestinian activist Linda Sarsour, and several Jewish students suspended from Columbia University and Barnard College over the protests that have rocked US campuses in recent days. Told Newsmax on Saturday that "the Senate is a failure. It’s Chuck Schumer. What he did is just an absolute travesty and a tragedy, but the American people are better off knowing what Biden and Mayorkas have done." Ian Sams, the White House spokesperson for oversight and investigations, said President Joe Biden and Mayorkas will "continue doing their jobs to keep America safe and pursue action solutions at the border."

With its laid back neutral toned California design, the boutique carries denim, dresses, tops, handbags, jewelry and, of course, denim, from brands such as Chanel, Prada, Gucci, Valentino—and the list goes on. When she eventually settled back Stateside, she established Chuck’s Vintage in 2006, and it garnered a cult following almost immediately after opening. A diverse range of boldfacers such as Steve Jobs, Dolly Parton, and the English singer and songwriter Robert Plant descended on the Melrose Place store for their vintage fix.

Chuck House was first formed in 1976 in the town of Edmond across the street from the UCO campus. Throughout our history some 34 family members have worked in the business. Some of our employees have gone on to be college professors, nurses, bank presidents, sheriffs, as well as the FBI, and a geologist for Devon Energy.

There are four bedrooms and four bathrooms in the main house and another bedroom and bath in a detached guest house, set beside a saltwater swimming pool with a spa. The site encompasses about 8 acres of landscaped grounds containing a 14,000-square-foot main house, a guest house, staff quarters, security offices, a tennis court and a gym. Our Home of the Week is a Mediterranean Revival-style house built in 1928 by a developer who sought to re-create the French Riviera in Redondo Beach. The grand two-story features hand-painted beams, plaster walls that simulate cut stone and a turret with decorative Italian tile floors.
