In an early Tuesday session, the Senate passed a $95-billion aid package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. Some Republican lawmakers are sounding the alarm, however. Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) sent a memo to his GOP colleagues saying the bill contains an "impeachment time bomb" directed at a potential Trump presidency.

The House is expected to vote again on impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. A similar vote failed last week, but Republicans believe they now have the necessary votes to get the effort over the finish line, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise expected to return to Washington after receiving cancer treatment.

Parts of the U.S. Northeast were hit by a snowstorm on Feb. 13 that canceled and delayed flights, made roads treacherous, and prompted many school districts to cancel classes or switch to remote learning. Highest snowfalls of 8 inches and possibly more in some locations are expected from the northern New York City suburbs to Connecticut, Rhode Island, and southeastern Massachusetts, according to the National Weather Service.
