The lower chamber voted 214-208 to pass the resolution, sponsored by Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.). Four Republicans joined all Democrats in supporting the measure: Reps. Tom Barrett (Mich.), Warren Davidson (Ohio), Thomas Massie (Ky.) and Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.). #Trump #HouseofRepresentatives #Iran #War #WarPowersResolution READ MORE: https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5985147-iran-war-powers-resolution-house-vote/
House Democratic leaders will speak with reporters Tuesday morning as lawmakers continue to sharpen their political message heading into the 2026 midterm elections. Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar (Calif.) and others are also likely to rail against the U.S. military's escalated strikes in Iran and continued aid to Israel. Democrats in the upper chamber have signaled another war powers resolution is on the way. Republicans' push to move President Trump's domestic agenda forward with another stopgap funding bill is also likely to raise scrutiny among Democrats as the lower chamber of Congress looks to avoid another government shutdown. #housedemocrats #hakeemjeffries #peteaguilar
Chris Cuomo examines why the same issues are viewed differently depending on whether a politician is a Republican or Democrat. Using Graham Platner, former President Biden, Mitch McConnell and the economy as examples, Cuomo argues that if your opinion changes when the party does, you're the problem. Iran has struck multiple U.S. military targets over the last 48 hours. Under the War Powers Resolution, a president can continue military operations for up to 60 days without congressional approval, but that deadline has now passed. What should Congress do next? Tennessee Republican Congressman Chuck Fleischmann and Maryland Democratic Congressman Johnny Olszewski weigh in. This week, ICE agents in Houston fatally shot Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a…

Retired U.S. Navy SEAL Officer Mike Sarraille and Vice President of National Security at The Heritage Foundation, Victoria Coates react to the House passing a resolution to limit President Trump’s war powers against Iran and more "Carl Higbie FRONTLINE."
Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA) railed against House Republican leaders in a challenge on the chamber floor Thursday, saying that a vote on a war powers resolution was cancelled out of fear that it would pass. The resolution would limit President Trump's authority to wage war against Iran. Asked about the cancellation, Rep. Hillary Scholten (D-MI) asserted that Congress should be allowed to vote on the military action, stating that a decision on the war "belongs in the hands of the people." Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY), however, said that pulling the vote was only because of an "obvious attendance issue" at the day's session. #Iran #War #Resolution #HouseofRepresentatives #Vote

Chris Cuomo opens with a look at toxic political dialogue and uses Scott Jennings as a prime example. The 48-year-old conservative commentator cursed at 23-year-old progressive podcaster Adam Mockler in a heated moment, on-air, without an apology. A day after the exchange, NewsNation correspondent-at-large Geraldo Rivera joined “CUOMO” to discuss the incident when he criticized Mockler’s behavior and called him a crude name. Mockler and Rivera both joined “CUOMO” on Tuesday to pick up the conversation and come to a resolution. On Monday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said America’s offensive operations in Iran are over with the conclusion of “Operation Epic Fury.” Is he playing it straight or playing politics to skirt the…
President Trump claimed this week that “hostilities have terminated” in America’s war with Iran, just as the War Powers Resolution was set to force a congressional vote on whether to continue the war. Chris Cuomo argues in his opening monologue that amid an active U.S. naval blockade and new briefings about possible renewed attacks on Iran, the president’s statement cannot be true. So is the continuation of the war without a congressional vote unconstitutional? Constitutional scholar Elie Mystal and former Trump attorney William Brennan debate. Chris Cuomo argues that a recent cable news exchange — which featured 48-year-old conservative commentator Scott Jennings snapping and cursing at 23-year-old progressive podcaster Adam…
