Congress Faces Packed Agenda as Ukraine Aid, Impeachment Moves, and Iowa Caucuses Loom
- Senate working to pass foreign aid bill including billions for Ukraine and Israel, linked to border policy talks; deal faces challenges
- House Republicans voted to open impeachment inquiry into President Biden over Hunter Biden allegations, despite lack of evidence of wrongdoing
- Hunter Biden defied Republican subpoena to testify privately, wants public testimony; says father not involved in his business
- 30 days until Iowa caucuses; Trump leading polls, bringing in new supporters and better organizing compared to 2016
- Republican candidates not attacking Trump or dropping out to coalesce behind alternative; situation mirrors unsuccessful anti-Trump efforts in 2016
