5 takeaways from Joe Biden's trip to two of the most productive foreign summits in years

President Joe Biden and his fellow NATO leaders departed a highly consequential summit Thursday that left the defense alliance larger, more muscular and more focused.
Yet after a pair of high-profile summit meetings in Europe this week, questions persist about Biden's ability to convince both his fellow leaders and the American public that the costs of supporting Ukraine and punishing Russia are still worth bearing.
Leader after leader at the two summits -- including Biden -- pledged to support Ukraine for "as long as it takes," but few were willing to offer an actual timeframe for an end to the conflict.

Attorney General Pam Bondi railed against a federal judge who partially blocked enforcement of President Donald Trump’s executive order targeting the Jenner & Block law firm, telling government agencies to stop enforcing the order despite the “blatant overstepping of the judicial power,” while suggesting that the agencies are still permitted “to decide with whom to work.”
