Senate GOP Rejects War Powers Resolution After Trump’s Fiery Meeting

the Louisiana senator pressed for more transparency on the war’s progress and costs.

Cassidy later recounted standing up and telling the president: “You have not told the American people what’s going on. It was supposed to last four weeks, it’s lasted four months. Our original objectives have not been achieved.”

Trump reportedly pushed back forcefully, emphasizing the need to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Following the meeting, Cassidy received a White House briefing alongside Vice President JD Vance and envoy Steve Witkoff, after which he changed his position and voted against the resolution.
