The article reports that the House rejected a resolution directing the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iran by a 213-214 vote, with Thomas Massie the only Republican voting for it. It also reports that two Senate resolutions to block arms sales to Israel failed, while arguing that the votes show growing divisions over the conflicts.

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."
