4 GOP Senators break ranks to check Trump Iran war powers: report

Trump saw his power to continue waging war in Iran checked by a Senate vote on Tuesday, per reporting by the New York Times.The Senate resolution tells Trump to end the war in Iran or seek congressional authorization to resume it, according to the Times, which described the 50-48 Senate vote as the most significant bipartisan rebuke yet of the conflict.GOP senators Rand Paul from Kentucky, Lisa Murkowski from Alaska, Susan Collins from Maine and Bill Cassidy from Louisiana crossed over and joined with Democrats to check Trump's Iran war powers. However, the Times noted that the resolution does not have the force of law and is unlikely to lead to an immediate change in policy. The Senate resolution marks the second time that Republicans have rebuked Trump over the war in Iran. The House of Representatives recently passed a similar resolution. Trump can veto the resolution.

Four Republicans broke ranks with Senate Republicans today and voted with the Democrats to pass a resolution directing Trump to end the Iran war. Rand Paul, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, and Bill Cassidy Republicans ditched their party and voted against Demented Donald. As you may have guessed, Sen. John Fetterman voted with Republicans. The NY Times, Tuesday’s vote marked the first time since the enactment of the War Powers Resolution of 1973 that both chambers of Congress have approved a concurrent resolution directing a president to end a military conflict. Unfortunately, this isn't a binding resolution, but it does give Trump another black eye in the media which he will loathe. read more

‘Demolished their military’: Trump hits out against Iranian regime as conflict resumes

United States President Donald Trump unleashes a scathing attack against the Iranian regime whilst speaking at the NATO summit in Turkey. “When you look at Iran, we essentially demolished their military in a couple of weeks. They had a good military; they had a good navy; they had 159 ships- everyone’s at the bottom of the sea,” Mr Trump said. “They had hundreds of aeroplanes; they’re all gone, they’re all lying burned up on the runways, they were totally decimated, their radar is gone, everything is gone, their leaders are gone. “We have the strongest military in the world by far, not even close; everybody admits it.”

Trump's Iran war: A $40 billion catastrophe that hurts Americans most

TEHRAN- When Donald Trump last week declared victory in his war against Iran, he painted a picture of American triumph. OIL IS FLOWING, IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON... PRICES ARE DROPPING, he boasted on social media. But a comprehensive CNN analysis of the 100-day conflict reveals a devastating reality that the President's all-caps pronouncements cannot obscure: this was a war that bankrupted American taxpayers, emptied the nation's strategic reserves, and inflicted economic pain on ordinary families—all while killing more than 7,500 civilians in the region.
