The US House narrowly defeated a War Powers Resolution (214-213) aimed at curbing President Trump's authority to wage war against Iran, highlighting deep partisan divides and ongoing constitutional debates over executive military power.
Outlets across the spectrum report on the House's refusal to curb executive war powers, with many like Politico and The American Conservative highlighting Secretary Hegseth’s "locked and loaded" warning to Iran. While center-leaning sources like AP News focus on the strategic expansion of naval blockades, left-leaning Crooked Media pairs the military escalation with personal scrutiny of Hegseth’s conduct at the Pentagon.
