White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan announced on Wednesday that he plans to meet with House leadership tomorrow to address a national security danger.

During a press briefing, Sullivan said that he spoke with the Gang of Eight to "offer myself up for a personal briefing" and revealed a briefing before House members of the Gang of Eight was scheduled for tomorrow.

Sullivan expressed he was confident in the decisions taken by President Joe Biden and that he was sure Biden would "ensure the security of the American people going forward."

According to Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence has made information on a severe national security danger accessible to all members of Congress.

Turner urged President Joe Biden to declassify information about the undefined danger so that Biden administration officials, US politicians, and US allies could consider how to respond to it.

CNN reported a source who saw the material acknowledged that "it is, in fact, a highly concerning and destabilizing Russian capability that we were recently made aware of." 

Multiple people familiar with the intelligence described it as "very sensitive." 

Fox News cited Pentagon sources saying that the material Turner is asking the Biden admin to declassify is tied to space.

$95bln military package for 'Israel', Ukraine, Taiwan passed by Senate

This comes as the US Senate granted final authorization to a $95 billion wartime "assistance" package for Ukraine, "Israel", and Taiwan in the early hours of Tuesday. The bill is now set to head to the Republican-held House, where its future remains uncertain.

During a vote held before dawn, the Senate overwhelmingly passed the measure with a vote of 70 to 29, surpassing the required 60-vote threshold required for most legislation to pass in the chamber.

A majority of Democrats, along with 22 Republicans, supported the bill, highlighting significant divides within the GOP regarding America's obligations toward its allies and its global role.

The package encompasses $60 billion designated for Ukraine, where military resources are quickly depleting. A substantial portion of these funds is intended to bolster Ukraine's military capabilities and replenish US weaponry and equipment deployed to the frontline.

Additionally, $14 billion has been allocated to support "Israel" and the US in carrying out military activities across the Middle East.

Furthermore, over $8 billion was earmarked for bolstering US partners in the Indo-Pacific, particularly Taiwan, as a means of deterring an alleged potential Chinese aggression.
