“When both sides of a negotiation are publicly taking shots at each other, that’s usually a sign that a deal is close,” Punchbowl News reports.

“That’s what’s happening today in the Senate, where a bipartisan group negotiating border policy changes is inching closer to an agreement. A deal on border policy would unlock GOP support for a massive $100 billion-plus foreign-aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.”

“As Democrats hammer Republicans for even trying to link further Ukraine funding to a border fix, GOP leaders are pushing back.”
