  • U.S.-Russia Tensions & GOP Division Over Ukraine: A Russian fighter jet’s collision with a U.S. reconnaissance drone this week marks the most direct military encounter between the two countries since the war in Ukraine began, and comes amidst a split within the Republican Party about U.S. aid to Ukraine.
