Pennsylvania Democratic Sen. John Fetterman was among the first members of Congress to congratulate President Donald Trump for securing a “historic” peace deal between Israel and Hamas to end the war in Gaza after two years of conflict.
Trump was interrupted by Secretary of State Marco Rubio during a White House roundtable event on Wednesday. Rubio briefed him that a ceasefire agreement between the two sides was close. The president duly announced the deal on Truth Social last night, inspiring fresh calls from conservatives for him to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
