Senate Republicans reject war powers resolution after Trump berates them at Capitol meeting
· KRGV (NBC 5)
Senate Republicans voted late Wednesday to reject a war powers resolution aimed at limiting President Trump's military actions in Iran, following a heated meeting where Trump criticized them for allowing a similar measure to pass. The vote, which ended 47-50-1, occurred after Trump berated GOP senators, particularly Louisiana's Bill Cassidy, who had previously sided with Democrats. Cassidy later received a briefing from the Vice President and switched his vote against the resolution. The Senate is now on a two-week recess, and it's uncertain if this action will satisfy Trump, who has expressed dissatisfaction with the GOP's handling of the situation.
