Rep. Greene and Speaker Johnson meet for a second day as possible vote on his ouster simmers
Embattled Speaker Mike Johnson worked to position himself as in control Tuesday, insisting he's not negotiating with far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene as they prepared to meet again at the Capitol and she weighed whether to proceed with a vote on his ouster. It was the second day Johnson was meeting privately with Greene, a top ally of Donald Trump, and she outlined four demands — including no more funding for Ukraine as it fights Russia and an end to the Justice Department special counsel's legal cases against the indicted former president. Greene is threatening to call a vote on her motion to vacate the speaker from office, despite objections from Trump himself and fellow Republicans who want to end the chaos on Capitol Hill.

Hungary government to discuss fuel prices again despite recent falls, minister says
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban's cabinet will discuss fuel prices again on Wednesday despite a recent fall in prices driven by government pressure on traders to align prices with levels elsewhere in the region, the economy minister said. Orban's government scrapped a fuel price cap in December 2022 after a lack of imports and panic buying led to shortages, but earlier this year raised the possibility of another intervention if fuel prices exceed the central European average. Shares in Hungarian energy group MOL have fallen about 1% since the government first floated the idea of a fuel market intervention last month, underperforming the Budapest benchmark index, which scaled record highs this week.
