[2] Thousands of people packed onto the National Mall today to show support for Israel and condemn anti -Semitism.
[3] A coalition of Jewish organizations planned the march to show that they stand with Israel following the brutal October 7th attack carried out by Hamas terrorists.
[4] Organizers for the march for Israel say as many as 100 ,000 people are anticipated to turn out for the event, though thousands have already gathered before the event's 1 p .m. start time.
[5] The event was attended by a bipartisan group of leadership from both the House and the Senate, including both Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson.

[11] The House is preparing to vote this afternoon on a stopgap package to keep the government running into the new year.
[12] If approved, the Senate would take up the vote ahead of Friday's partial shutdown deadline.
[13] Daily Wire reporter Tim Pierce has more.
[14] While the bill is unlikely to win over enough Republican support, newly elected House Speaker Mike Johnson is looking to the other side of the aisle.
[15] Johnson has put forward a somewhat unusual funding proposal that would fund some federal agencies to January 19th and others to February 2nd.
[16] The continuing resolution does not include any of the massive cuts that Republicans have demanded.
[17] It also completely omits President Joe Biden's request for Ukraine, Israel, the border, and other funds.
[18] Johnson has called the continuing resolution a necessary bill saying it would put Republicans best foot forward in the new year.
[19] Meanwhile, other members of the GOP party like Chip Roy, believe this bill is a mistake.
[20] To put forward a bill that will continue the spending levels that were adopted in the massive omnibus spending level last December, $1 .7 trillion bill, annual $1 .6 plus trillion dollars of spending, and perpetuate the policies, even more importantly.
[21] I am opposed to doing that.
[22] I can swallow doing some of those things if you're getting meaningful change, but not perpetuating the same damn policies for 60 to 75 days.
[23] That is absurd.

[29] inflation stayed flat in October as gasoline prices came down about 2 .5 % last month.
[30] The Bureau of Labor Statistics says the annualized inflation rate was 3 .2 % for October, which is still elevated, but closer to the Federal Reserve goal of 2%.
[31] Wall Street celebrated the news with a stock rally early in the day, and many economists believe the Fed will hold rates steady at their next meeting.
[32] Food prices did continue to increase, however, by 0 .3 % month over month.
[33] A federal judge in D .C. is considering whether or not to hold a broadcast journalist in contempt.

[35] Daily Wire senior editor, Joel Needler, has more.
[36] Catherine Harage, who formerly worked for Fox News and now works for CBS, was ordered to testify under oath about her sources of information regarding Chinese American scientist Yanping Chen.
[37] Chen was suspected of lying on immigration documentation to work on a Chinese astronaut program and was later investigated for it.
[38] Chen has since sued the government saying details about the probe were leaked in order to damage her reputation.
[39] During Harage's under oath interview, she refused to tell Chen's lawyers how she got her information.
[40] Now Chen's lawyers are demanding that Harwich be held in contempt, which could result in many fines until she complies.
