Summary
Congress passed a non-binding resolution urging President Trump to withdraw U.S. forces from hostilities with Iran, reflecting bipartisan war fatigue. Lawmakers also approved a bipartisan housing bill aimed at curbing corporate home buying and streamlining construction to lower prices. Meanwhile, primary elections in three states test the influence of progressive candidates, particularly in New York. The episode also covers federal funding for new nuclear reactors to power data centers and the removal of Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center.
