Senate Blocks Trump’s Iran War
Description
The Senate just blocked President Trump’s Iran war plan with a 50-48 vote — the first time ever passing a war powers resolution like this — sparking major political fireworks. Trump lashed out at GOP senators, calling one a “lunatic,” after four Republicans joined Democrats in voting against him. Senator Bill Cassidy stood firm, demanding more info as the operation drags on without clear goals. Meanwhile, the Pentagon seeks $80 billion to fund the conflict, creating a tense standoff between Congress trying to rein in the war and the military pushing for massive funding. This vote exposes deep fractures within the GOP over foreign policy and accountability.
