Episode description

The Senate is back in town today and ready to take up the Republicans' budget reconciliation bill. It's the same bill the House passed before Memorial Day weekend, but it faces a possibly rocky path in the Senate. The suspect in Sunday's attack in Boulder, Colorado appeared in court today, charged with 16 counts of attempted murder, plus a federal hate crime. According to an affidavit, Mohammed Soliman told investigators he “wanted to kill all Zionist people” and said, “he would do it again."  Russian and Ukrainian delegates met in Istanbul today for a second set of direct peace talks. Their meeting comes after Ukraine's drone attack on Russian bombers. Media reports say the talks between the two sides lasted barely over an hour and that outside of an agreement to work on a new prisoner exchange little progress was made.
