California governor’s race remains unresolved as vote count continues - US politics live

Senate Republicans are debating amendments to a bill regarding a controversial DOJ 'anti-weaponization' fund, causing a temporary standstill in legislative business. Despite initial party-line votes, some Republicans are working to remove the fund without jeopardizing broader immigration legislation.
Why it matters
The internal Republican debate highlights the tension between political messaging and the practical necessity of passing essential government funding bills.

The report focuses on legislative maneuvering and quotes multiple sides, maintaining a neutral tone regarding the political conflict.
