Senate Divided on Trump Iran Nuclear Strikes

News summary

Senators remain sharply divided along party lines after a classified briefing on President Trump's airstrikes against three Iranian nuclear sites. Republicans praised the operation as a major blow to Iran's nuclear program, while Democrats cited intelligence suggesting it only delayed Iran's progress by a few months, contradicting Trump's public statements. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Chris Murphy criticized the briefing for lacking a clear strategy and adequate answers. The session reignited debate over the need for congressional authorization for military action, with some lawmakers pushing for a resolution requiring such approval in the future. The administration dismissed preliminary intelligence leaks as inconclusive, adding to partisan mistrust. Questions persist about the long-term impact of the strikes and the administration's approach to oversight.
