Vice President JD Vance, Sen. Chris Murphy, Rep. Jim Himes
President Trump prepares to head to Israel as the deadline to release the remaining hostages nears. Meanwhile, some federal employees will miss paychecks -- others face pink slips as the government shutdown drags on. We'll talk to Vice President JD Vance. Hopeful Gazans have begun the trek back to their homes as the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas continues to hold, but the rebuilding and recovery ahead is daunting. Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty explains his country’s role in the next phase of peace talks. With the shutdown now in its twelfth day, more federal facilities are facing closure, paychecks are on the verge of being missed -- and the Trump administration has begun sending reduction in force notices to some federal employees. Democrats Chris Murphy and Jim Himes weigh in on their party’s strategy and if negotiations with the other side are on the table.
