US Senator pledges support for Israel and calls for sanctions against the ICC
Incoming Senate Republican leader, John Thune, called on current majority leader of the Senate Chuck Schumer to sanction the International Criminal Court (ICC) over its warrants against Israeli officials; which he has called “outrageous and unlawful”.
Citing war crimes, ICC prosecutor Karim Khan has asked a pre-trial panel at the Hague to approve his request for arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant and three Hamas leaders who have since been killed.
Thune sent a message “to Israel and Jews around the world” that “reinforcements are on the way”, stating that when the Republicans gain control of the Senate with the inauguration of the Trump administration, they will “make clear that the United States Congress stands firmly ...

US House ethics committee votes on Matt Gaetz report | BBC News
Vice-President-elect JD Vance is shoring up Senate support for Donald Trump's cabinet picks as he brings attorney general nominee Matt Gaetz along on a visit to the Capitol.
The nomination has caused controversy among Republicans and Democrats, as the House Ethics Committee is expected to meet amid a debate over whether it should release a report on Gaetz.
The report includes the findings of an investigation sparked by allegations against the former congressman of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use, all of which Gaetz has denied.
He resigned from the House of Representatives after Trump announced he wanted the Florida politician to be America's top lawyer. Now that Gaetz is no longer a member of the House, it's uncertain if the report will be made public.
