important. we israel s our ally. there are greatest ally in the middle east. the only democracy see you in the middle east. we ve got to get money that knows keep in mind now, we ve already got a bill over in the senate to send money to israel. we are in it s been there and it s hey, four. so you know, we re having to do something over again that we shouldn t have to do over speaker johnson was asked about why there s been a delay in trying to get this foreign aid package in the house that as you noted, is very similar to what was passed in the senate. johnson says that house didn t pursue this earlier because it takes a long time to socialize and build consensus. when you have the smallest majority in us history, why do you? do you think it took so long to ultimately get to this point well, i think that the speaker makes a good point. i mean, we ve got a majority today of two saturday afternoon, i suspect it will be down to one, the slimmest
pressure on chief justice john roberts to build consensus behind the scenes and come up with a path forward where at least the vote count, whatever it ends up being, on whatever decision they make, does not appear partisan. but certainly, an enormous case for the court, and an enormous test for the chief justice. paula reid, cnn, washington. former state and federal prosecutor, and cnn senior legal analyst elie honig weighed in on the u.s. supreme court s decision to hear the colorado case. take a listen. i do not expect the supreme court to address the issue of insurrection, whether donald trump did or did not engage in insurrection. that s not the kind of thing that the u.s. supreme court normally does, they re not a fact-finding body. i expect them to deal with the procedural and constitutional questions. two in particular. first of all, is it up to congress to pass laws telling us how the 14th amendment works, or is it up to the states to figure it out on their own? if the supr
