Welcome to Wednesday, January 31st, books and scrolls...

Biden reported that he has decided how to respond to the drone strike that killed three troops in Jordan.

Three American service members were killed and dozens injured during an overnight drone strike in northeast Jordan near the Syrian border. This is the first deadly attack on U.S. forces stationed in the Middle East since the Israel-Hamas war began.

Biden declined to provide further details on the U.S.'s response, but reiterated that he hopes to deter a broader conflict in the Middle East.
