WASHINGTON (Gray DC) – It’s a busy week in Washington as fallout continues after the U.S. launched airstrikes against Iran early Sunday morning.

Tuesday, the NATO Summit kicks off in the Hague, Netherlands. President Donald Trump is scheduled to attend the two-day meeting with foreign leaders. The meeting comes as NATO members are expected to commit to higher defense-spending level, something Trump has been pushing for since his first term in office.

Back in Washington, all eyes are on the U.S. Senate as senators are also look to make progress on Trump’s budget, or as he calls it, “one big, beautiful bill.” The legislation includes tax cuts as well as more money for both the military and border security. It also includes controversial cuts to Medicaid and food assistance programs.

The U.S. Supreme Court is wrapping up its current term. The justices still need to release opinions on ten remaining cases. They include a challenge to the legality of Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship.

Republicans flee Washington after flap on Trump's 'weaponization fund' and ballroom spending

U.S. Senate Republicans abandoned plans to vote on an ICE funding bill on Thursday in ‌an act of revolt over one of President Donald Trump’s priorities: a $1.8 billion fund for victims of government “weaponization,” including those convicted of crimes during the riots at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Washington Capitals re-sign Timothy Liljegren to a 2-year, .5 million contract

ARLINGTON, Va. — The Washington Capitals re-signed defenseman Timothy Liljegren to a two-year contract worth $6.5 million.

General manager Chris Patrick announced the deal Wednesday. Liljegren will count $3.25 million against the salary cap next season and in 2027-28.

The right-handed-shooting Swede played just four games for the Capitals after they acquired him from San Jose at the trade deadline in early March. He could have a bigger role next season as part of a blue line that is not expected to have John Carlson back after Washington sent the pending free agent to Anaheim on the eve of the deadline.

Now 27, Liljegren has 94 points in 324 regular season and playoff games in the NHL, with the vast majority of that time spent with Toronto.

The biggest question of the offseason for Patrick and the front office is the status of longtime captain, face of the franchise and career goal-scoring record holder Alex Ovechkin, who has not yet declared whether he’ll return for a 22nd season at age 41.
