Case with dna from under a fingernails that someone can make into a perfect picture hello, and welcome to all of you watching us here in the United States, canada, and All Around The World. Im kim brune who bird this is cnn newsroom on this vote, the asia 311 and the naibe, are 112. The bill is passed youre watching the moment aid for ukraine, israel, and taiwan passed in a highstakes vote in congress, bonds, not everyones cheering ahead the backlash the right and the left facing those who led the charge. Ukraine says it desperately needs the help to hold russia at bay on the front lines will take you live to kyiv to look at how the country plans to put it to use. Plus recent arrests, dual doing little to silence propalestinian demonstrators at new yorks Columbia University. What theyre demanding and how the schools responding live from atlanta this is cnn newsroom with Kin Brunhuber vote in washington is over but the political fallout is just getting started. 95 billion in us aid for ukraine, israel and us allies in the indopacific approved by the house. Now heading to the senate with a vote expected on tuesday, then to the white house where President Biden says, hell sign it about the price tag, doesnt include the potential cost to republican Speaker Mike Johnson, who after months of infighting and Bitter Division in the Republican Party, could only advance the bills with the help of democrats that has some members on the right flank of his party threatening to introduce a measure to remove him from his post. Well look at that in a moment along with whether aid to israel could hurt present binwidth grasses. Cnn has reporters all across a story. Ill let gotkine is in london for us with the reaction in israel, the first i want to go to Clare Sebastian with more on what this means to ukraine and clear those billions of dollars in aid cant come too soon for soldiers on ukraines front lines yeah kim, i think if palpable sense of relief and ukraine today, even with the understanding that this delay in getting this vote passed has cost ukraine extremely dearly. Were hearing, of course, from president zelenskyy this morning, an overnight with it really strong gratitude, unequivocal, praise for his american allies. Take a listen we appreciate every manifestation of support for our state and independents are people in our lives which russia wants to bury in Ruins America has shown its leadership from the first days of this war well, so i mean, he did also warn that without this aid, the war could expand beyond ukraine, which has been a critical argument. I think the question now, and ukraine is how quickly can this aid calm the pentagon . Saying in a briefing last week before this vote that it could come very quickly. Theyre poised to move. They say theyd been previously able to move within days. Obviously, we still have the vote in the senate to come and then the president s signature. But those are expected to happen relatively quickly. We could see an Immediate Impact on the ground if ukraine tries to spend more ammunition rations, a little less stringently in the anticipation of more Artillery Ammunition coming. For example. But equally, russia may also ive tried to exploit this narrowing window that is certainly the assessment, the assessment of us think tank, the institute for the study of war, that they may step up attacks given that the new aid is now expected relatively quickly. As for the russian response to this we did hear from the Foreign Ministry spokeswoman maria as or wherever roundly criticizing not only usa ukraine, but also israel and taiwan. She said the allocation of us military aid to ukraine, israel and taiwan will exacerbate global chrissy. These military aid to the kyiv regime. She said is direct sponsorship of terrorist activity. This along the lines of rhetoric, we do typically hear from russia. Look without this, its clear that ukrainian hopes victory was severely dimmed. President zelenskyy has admitted that himself, but this is not a silver bullet. We know, for example that russia is using aerial guided bombs to significant effect on the frontlines. That is how they were able to take over the town of avdiivka in mid february, ukraine is still waiting for essex deans, which could help to combat those. And of course they are grappling with significant damage. The loss of territory, the loss of countless lives because of the delay in passing this vote to kim. All right. Clare sebastian standby. I want to go down to Elliott Gotkine for reaction from israel. So elliott, the house passed 26 billion in aid for israel and gaza. We should note that not all of it goes to israels military, just 17 billion. So whats the reaction in israel unbridled gratitude, kim, i suppose is what were seeing on the surface from across the political spectrum in israel including from Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu, who said in response to the passage in the house of this aid bill saying that the Us Congress Just overwhelmingly passed a much appreciated aid bill that demonstrates strong bipartisan support for israel and defends western civilization. And we heard similar sentiments from Defense Minister yoav gallant, from president isaac herzog, from foreign minister israel katz, as well. Of course, unsurprisingly, palestinians are not whats too happy with this. They are disappointed indeed, a spokesman for the Palestinian Authority saying that us security aid to israel constitutes a dangerous escalation and aggression against the palestinian people. Now, if you want to look at this though, from the perspective of a glass half empty, then you could say a look, this vote only passed this aid package for israel, one pass 366 votes to 58. They were 37 Congress Menn on the democrats, who dissented. And although there is clearly strong bipartisan support still from both sides of the aisle for israel, the us still clearly how as israels back, there will perhaps under the surface be a little bit of concern in israel that perhaps in times gone by in years past, this bill would have passed even more overwhelmingly with bipartisan support. And i suppose it would be an interesting Thought Experiment to see how this vote would have gone if iran had not launched this unprecedented attack of more than 300 drones and missiles towards israel, just a week ago, because perhaps that concentrated some of the minds of those who are wavering between supporting this package for israel and those thinking about passive voting against it. Another experiment would be interesting to see how this vote would have gone on if not for the hamas Terrorist Attacks of october the seventh, and israel subsequent war against hamas in the gaza strip, which the hamasrun Health Ministry in gaza says has killed more than 34,000 people. Of course, figures that dont distinguish between competence and civilians, perhaps kim, that vote would have been even more bipartisan in an even more overwhelming in israels favor, had this war never happened in the first place . Yeah, you bring up some interesting points there. I want to thank you both. Elliott gotkine and Clare Sebastian early. Appreciate it. For more analysis now were joined by julie norman, the Deputy Director of the center of us politics at University College london. Thank you so much for being here with us again. So the biggest winner here, ukraine obviously, but domestically politically, a big win for democrats as well absolutely. And say kim, its a big win for bipartisanship on capitol hill, which is something that is obviously unusual these days, and especially in an election year. So this is something that the Biden Administration has definitely been pushing for a really for months now. And so did see it come through is a big political win for denmark crafts absolutely you for biden. And this isnt just for domestic audiences, but for really doubling down on what he sees as his Foreign Policy credentials, showing that the us is still a global leader, that the us will be there for our allies that the us will still take steps to deter adversaries as well. You say its a big win for bipartisanship. I wonder where it goes from here. Mike johnson becomes sort of an unlikely hero. Here. He had voted against every ukraine aid bill until he became speaker. And then now with this helping get the bill through, do you think this is a Crossing The Rubicon of sorts, the signals, bipartisanship in this congress, will it be possible on other issues now or is that just a pipe dream unfortunate. I think its just a pipe dream. And as you will be routed to johnsons, speakership is really on the line and i would say he knew that with taking this vote to the floor and to give him credit, he said, you, if i ladies personally on this. So be it. But were here to do a job and i think this is the right thing to put this forward before the vote. And even after weve heard clamoring from Marjorie Taylor greene, from some others from the Freedom Caucus thing that they will be calling for his ouster. We havent seen any official emotion for that yet, but there likely will be some blowback. And i would just say the Republican Party is very split on this johnsons own Committee Heads in Armed Services and intelligence in Foreign Affairs of where were pushing for this bill, even as half of the conference was pushing against it. So he was really caught in the middle there and i think he he had ended the day just did we he thought was the right what do you make of the fact that Marjorie Taylor greene didnt pursue a motion to vacate to get rid of him. I mean, she said she she wants everyone who voted for it to go back and hear from their constituents as it just a matter of time before he goes or is now a bit too late. So close to the auction yeah. I think some of this obviously is bluster are trying to swing things a certain way. And so some of those threats for ouster may not actually come to pass, at least as quickly as as some thought. But with that said, i do think that flank of the party will keep putting the pressure on johnson. I think its more of a question of testing the waters within their own party as to how much they want to go into another speaker battle that has then a difficult process for republicans to. This congress. And with an election year, its something that i think many representatives just simply dont want to go there at this moment. But for johnson, hes going to be feeling that pressure. Youre talking about that flank of the Party Donald Trump was largely quiet on this bill, but his position generally on the issue was quite clear. So this was a big blow for trump and the maga forces, though. I guess its something that they can use to further rile up their base in this election cycle. Yes, largely so and i would point out there was a different bill on the table several months ago that did include massive Border Concessions from democrats that trump essentially pressured his his supporters to quash. And so there were, there was a different bill that had more republican interests available. I will say trump on this side do you think he was quieter on his normal opposition to ukraine aid he seemed to be a bit more comfortable with some of the language of some of that aid being alone rather than direct aid. And that seemed to telegraph at least some some acquiescence to this, if not support for it. All right. Now, turning to the military aid for israel already, weve seen protests from progressives. Its been a very divisive issue for democrats will this hurt joe biden . Well, i think the gaza issue more broadly is being obviously politically hurting biden throughout this throughout this election year, just with the amount of support he can get, especially from young people and youve been hurting his campaigning opportunities. But with this bill, i will say the fact that it was broken up into these different pieces did allow for some democrats to dissent from that vote, while still obviously supporting ukraine. And i will point out too that the israel bill did include about 9 billion and humanitarian aid, much of which will go to gaza, which many of the democrats supported. And much of it is more for defensive replenishment for israel after last weeks attacks from iran. And i think that made a difference as well well have to leave it there, but i always appreciate your analysis. Julie norman. Thank you so much for joining us thank you wael, the us is now one step closer to Banning Tiktok house lawmakers approved a bill targeting the app as part of that massive foreign aid package passed saturday. The bill gives the hugely Pond Social Media platform nine months to replace the current Chinese Parent Company bytedance with a new owner. Many in congress see the tiktok app as a National Security risk. More lawmakers now support the bands since its part of the larger legislative package. And that bundling makes it harder to remove the measure and more likely that itll pass tiktok calls or potential ban and attack on free speech. Rosen biden said he would sign the legislation if it reaches his desk the palestinian political faction fatah is calling for a Worker Strike across the occupied west bank for today, over palestinian deaths in the west bank and gaza the palestinian Health Ministry says 14 people were killed during an israeli operation at the Nour Shams Refugee Camp they say theyve now been able to go in and ten to the wounded after israeli forces, partly withdrew from the area, it appears to be one of the largest operations in the west bank since the hamas attack on october 7. The idf claims who have killed what they described as ten terrorists and arrested eight suspects, calling it a quote, extensive countered terrorism operation meanwhile, hundreds of palestinians marched in a Funeral Procession on saturday carrying the bodies of two men killed during one of the latest attacks by Israeli Settlers in the occupied west bank. Israeli military says, its looking into the incident. It comes after witnesses told cnn hundreds of Israeli Settlers stormed Palestinian Homes homes, and villages last week, attacking residents across the west bank after missing israeli boy was found dead thousands of israelis spent saturday calling for Benjamin Netanyahus government to be replaced in, tel aviv and jerusalem. They called once again for new elections and for the government to do more to bring home hostages held by hamas protesters have held rallies for the past seven months now, angry with how the Israeli Government has handled the hostage situation, hamas is thought to still be Holding Around 100 israelis here, in the propalestinian protests continued at Columbia University for a fourth straight day students and faculty members have been protesting. What they describe as the universitys continued Financial Investment in corporations that profit from israels war in gaza cnns Polo Sandoval has the details we dont want to the started on wednesday when the Columbia University president Minouche Shafik was in washington testifying before lawmakers responding to reports of antisemitism on campus this is currently there was also a presence of not just students, but also faculty setting up tents and signs here on the campus itself. But the organizers of this event, making their message is quite clear, saying that their hope is that they will pressure Columbia University to divest funds from companies connected to israel cnn has reached out to the university to address for more on not just heari investments, but also to address the allegations that have been puforwd by these organizers. But eventually this evolved into any cabinet, a large one at the University President declared a disturbance.

For protesters, this may be a galvanizing moment to basically reinvigorate there cause for universities there are certainly going to, this speaks to them having to grapple with the reality that we are likely going to continue to see more of these demonstrations from one Mpus Tonother
