Fox News: Hawley reignites 'PELOSI Act' push to ban lawmakers from trading stocks
Sen. Josh Hawley is reintroducing the "PELOSI Act," which aims to prohibit members of Congress and their spouses from trading stocks while in office. The proposal has gained bipartisan support, with President Trump expressing willingness to sign it into law.
If enacted, lawmakers would be barred from buying or selling stocks, though they could invest in diversified mutual funds and U.S. Treasury bonds. Violators would have to forfeit profits to the U.S. Treasury and could face fines from ethics committees.

Times Of Israel: Top Biden aide: Israel missed opportunity for Saudi deal; hopefully it won’t do so again
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government reportedly missed a crucial opportunity for normalization with Saudi Arabia, as outlined by a former Biden aide. The deal hinged on a ceasefire and a political framework for a Palestinian state, which Netanyahu has consistently rejected. Biden officials expressed frustration over Netanyahu's refusal to engage in postwar planning for Gaza, viewing it as a tactic to maintain his political standing.
Despite tensions, Biden's administration has remained committed to Israel's security, even amid disagreements over military aid and humanitarian access to Gaza. As discussions for a normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia continued, the Biden team acknowledged the challenges posed by Netanyahu's coalition, particularly from far-right ministers resistant to concessions regarding Palestinian statehood.
