Secretary Hegseth stated the U.S. military remains 'locked and loaded' to target Iranian dual-use infrastructure.
The U.S. House narrowly defeated a War Powers Resolution (213-214) aimed at limiting President Trump's military actions in Iran, as a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz continues to drive up global energy prices.

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.
