Newsday

Available for over a year

Rival Republican Party factions in the US House of Representatives have reached an uneasy truce by agreeing not to punish two Congresswomen - one of them an avid opponent of Donald Trump, and the other a strong supporter who's been accused of making incendiary untrue statements.

And how the Islamist threat in northern Mozambique is not just causing instability, but also affecting food supplies.
