President Joe Biden made a public warning to Iran "to be careful" following the Iran-backed terrorist group Hamas's attack on Israel over the weekend.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., asked Israeli forces to show restraint amid its offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip and criticized Israel for cutting aid to the area.

The House adjourned for a brief recess on Wednesday, delaying a vote to elect a new House speaker until Republicans can secure enough support for Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA), who was chosen as the party’s nominee during a closed-door meeting earlier in the afternoon.
