Senate eases Trump Iran war rebuke as GOP stance on war powers shifts
TL;DR Summary
The Senate walked back its rebuke of President Trump’s handling of the Iran conflict, rejecting an attempt to advance a similar war-powers measure in a late-night vote that ended 47-50-1 (Paul present; Cassidy voted against advancing; Collins and Murkowski for; Fetterman against). Trump welcomed the outcome, highlighting intra-party divisions and signaling the ongoing battle over congressional oversight of military action as the Senate has now held 11 Iran‑war votes this year.
