2) The US vowed more strikes against Iran’s forces and its proxies in the Middle East after three straight days of punishing attacks, even as Washington insisted it won’t be pulled into a prolonged regional conflict.
3) Senators released a bipartisan deal Sunday to impose new US immigration restrictions and unlock billions of dollars in Ukraine aid, a crucial step even as the measure faces long odds in the House.
4) Taylor Swift announces new album, 'The Tortured Poets Department,' while accepting GrammySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
