Trump's war powers rebuked by GOP-led House & Senate

from THE DAILY BRIEF · host Josh

The headline refers to a series of congressional votes over President Donald Trump's authority to continue U.S. military operations involving Iran. Initially, both chambers of Congress delivered a notable bipartisan rebuke:The GOP-controlled House passed a war powers resolution with support from four Republicans, joining Democrats in an effort to limit Trump's ability to continue military operations against Iran without congressional authorization.A few weeks later, the Senate also narrowly approved a similar resolution (50–48), with four Republican senators joining most Democrats. It was the first time the Senate had approved such a war powers resolution, making it a significant political rebuke, even though the measure's legal effect was limited and Trump was expected to oppose it.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-daily-brief--6679022/support.Don’t miss our latest episodes!
