As far as $200bn, I think that number could move. Obviously, it takes money to kill bad guys. We're going back to Congress and folks there to ensure that we're properly funded for what's been done, for what we may have to do in the future.
Joe Kent, President Trump's former top counter-terrorism official, is under investigation by the FBI's Criminal Division for allegedly improperly sharing classified information.

AIPAC pivoted in the final week of the campaign to focusing its fire on the more pro-Palestinian Abughazaleh than Biss, who was backed by the Congressional Progressive Caucus and Sen.
