☆ Why Alexey Navalny's death is unlikely to change Congress' Ukraine aid quagmire
  + stars: | 2024-02-16 | by ( Brent D. Griffiths | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Read previewLeaders in both parties vowed that Russian President Vladimir Putin must pay for the death of famed opposition leader Alexey Navalny. It's unclear though how their tributes will translate into tangible action, especially on Congress' long-delayed push to send more aid for Ukraine's defense. House Speaker Mike Johnson said in a statement that international leaders "must be clear that Putin will be met with united opposition." While it's true that the foreign aid bill could garner 218 votes, getting the bill on the floor is another matter entirely. Ukraine aid still hasn't passed.

☆ US Senate Republicans unveil border plan as House Ukraine bill looms

2 Senate Republican John Thune told reporters that Johnson's plan has "a lot" of support among Republicans in the Senate, adding: "It'd be strong." The Republican-controlled House passed HR-2 in May, but the bill has gone nowhere in the Democratic-led Senate. Among other things, the Senate Republican proposal would resume construction of a border wall -- former President Donald Trump's signature goal -- in addition to deeming large numbers of migrants ineligible for asylum. Republican border provisions face broad opposition from Democrats in Congress and from President Joe Biden. He told reporters that a bill linking Ukraine aid to border security would come soon.

Basketball icon Magic Johnson has been declared a billionaire by Forbes. Johnson recently revealed he passed on an early chance to buy Nike shares that could've netted him billions. AdvertisementAdvertisementForbes magazine has declared basketball star Magic Johnson a billionaire, decades after he lost out on a Nike deal that could have netted him $5 billion. The Nike deal would've seen Johnson paid $1 for every pair of trainers sold and 100,000 shares in company stock. Back then, Nike shares were worth around 18 cents each, while today they are valued at around $100, so a shares deal would've been hugely more profitable long term.
