The United States — United States House of Representatives rejected a bipartisan resolution aimed at curbing Donald Trump>>>'s authority to wage war against Iran>>>. The vote, largely along party lines, followed a similar rejection by the United States, indicating limited congressional appetite to challenge the White House on the ongoing military campaign. The conflict, which began less than a week prior with joint strikes by the United States and Israel>>> against Iran>>>, has resulted in the deaths of senior Iranian officials, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei>>>, and six US service members in a retaliatory strike on a US base in Kuwait>>>. Democrats argued that the administration has not provided sufficient justification for the war, while Republicans rallied behind Donald Trump>>>, asserting that limiting his authority would embolden Iran>>> and endanger US troops. The decision underscores the constitutional debate over war powers and raises concerns about the conflict's potential impact on the upcoming elections and global markets.

per
Gregory Meeks>>>, the top Democrat on the Foreign Affairs Committee, described the conflict as a 'war of choice' launched without authorization or clear objectives.
