Trump Faces Impeachment Threat After Iran Strikes

News summary

President Donald Trump authorized U.S. airstrikes on Iran's nuclear sites without Congressional approval, drawing sharp condemnation from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), who called the strikes a 'grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers' and demanded Trump's impeachment. Trump responded with personal insults on social media, questioning AOC's intelligence and daring Democrats to attempt another impeachment. He also criticized other Democratic lawmakers, including Jasmine Crockett and Ilhan Omar, while defending the strikes as a major U.S. victory. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and other Democrats rebuked Trump for bypassing Congress and called for a Senate vote to reassert war powers. The episode has reignited debates over presidential authority and the need for Congressional approval of military actions. Rep. Al Green has filed a formal article of impeachment, further intensifying the dispute.
