Senate Votes to Block War Powers Resolution, Delivering Donald Trump a Significant Victory
GOP Senator Bill Cassidy has voted to block a resolution limiting President Donald Trump's war powers in Iran, just hours after clashing with the president over a similar measure. The move helped deliver a victory for Trump, with Cassidy joining the majority of Republicans in voting against the resolution. Earlier, Cassidy had been involved in a heated exchange with Trump during a lunch meeting with the GOP conference. Following the altercation, Cassidy received a briefing on Iran from Vice President JD Vance and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. The senator's decision marks a significant shift, coming after he supported a war powers resolution that passed the Senate on Tuesday.
