The US House of Representatives narrowly voted down a resolution to curb President Trump's power to wage war with Iran, with 213 in favor and 214 against. This defeat, following a similar Senate vote, underscores Republican reluctance to constrain Trump's military actions amidst an ongoing conflict with Iran.

The New Republic frames the outcome as a failure to stop an unauthorized "assault," whereas the far-right Next News Network celebrates the defeat of what it calls a Democratic "War Powers Grab."
