White House “reevaluating" Biden's overseas travel amid debt ceiling crisis

The White House has suggested US President Joe Biden may scrap his
trip to Australia amid ongoing debt ceiling negotiations.

Biden heads to the G7 summit in Japan on Wednesday, but the White
House says it is "reevaluating the rest of the trip".

The US is trying to increase its borrowing limit, with neither
Democrats or Republicans so far able to find common ground.
