Drop Site’s Julian Andreone asked Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) whether special interests were shaping the U.S. decision to launch war against Iran.

New: GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski told me the second strike on the alleged drug boat in the Caribbean does not comply with the rules of war — and she has concerns. “I think most would say that when you have two individuals that are literally floating in the water, a second order to kill them all is not something that we would consider within the rules of war,” Sen. Lisa Murkowski said.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) told Drop Site that, according to House Armed Services Committee briefings she had viewed, Iran “was very close to getting a nuclear weapon.” Asked about Trump’s conflicting claim that Iran’s nuclear sites had already been destroyed in U.S. strikes last June, she told us she could not discuss “classified information.” AIPAC Tracker reports Mace has received $457,576 from the pro-Israel lobby. According to OpenSecrets, she also received $39,000 from defense sector donors during the 2023–24 election cycle. Julian Andreone | Rep. Nancy Mace

An extensive conversation from earlier this week with Republican Senator Kevin Cramer about the role of special interest groups, like defense contractors and the pro-Israel lobby, in driving war. He told me & Drop Site that he's "never thought about" how the influence of corporate donors and lobbyists could influence U.S. foreign policy. Sen. Cramer recently told Medea Benjamin that the United States has a "biblical responsibility" to the state of Israel while justifying the Trump administration's decision to follow Benjamin Netanyahu into the Iran War. The senator has accepted, per AIPAC Tracker, more than $350,000 from the pro-Israel lobby himself.

"We are the losers and Iran is laughing all the way to the bank." Drop Site's Julian Andreone asked senators on Capitol Hill to weigh in on the U.S.-Iran peace deal signed at the G7 summit in France — testing whether lawmakers who claimed to oppose the war would now support a deal that includes $300 billion in reconstruction funds for Iran and the lifting of all U.S. sanctions. The 14-point memorandum of understanding extends the ceasefire, reopens the Strait of Hormuz, and commits both sides to further talks over the next 60 days. Julian Andreone | Drop Site

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said the U.S. must “take responsibility for its own actions,” calling the war “not in our national security interest” and “a terrible mistake.” He expressed deep skepticism about former NCTC Director Joe Kent’s credibility and sidestepped questions about pro-Israel lobbying and whether it needs to be reined in, saying instead “we need to rein in the administration.” Julian Andreone | Adam Schiff

As someone who experienced threats and harassment from armed extremists for over a decade, I have empathy for anyone who feels afraid of retaliation for free speech. But at the end of the day, we all must make a choice: back down or double down. GOP Alaska Sen Lisa Murkowski could switch parties. She could oppose every nominee. She could use her status in the majority party to hold Donald Trump accountable. Instead, during Trump’s first term, Sen Murkowski voted with Trump 73% of the time. This term, Sen Murkowski has voted for 20 of Trump’s cabinet nominees. There are people with far less privilege and power than Sen Murkowski who have stood up to Trump. If any lawmaker is too afraid to use their voice, they should step aside and give their seat to someone who isn’t.

Sen.

Drop Site’s Julian Andreone asked Rep. Shontel Brown (OH-11) whether House Democrats could take steps to enforce the Gaza peace plan and halt Israel’s daily killings despite the deal. Her response: “I have called for a ceasefire.” She then told our correspondent to speak to Republicans and drove away. Brown has received more than $1.1 million in career support from pro-Israel interest groups. Democratic Majority for Israel spent over $2 million boosting her against Nina Turner in 2021, while AIPAC’s United Democracy Project and Pro-Israel America PAC poured in hundreds of thousands more. Turner, meanwhile, has been a leading voice condemning the genocide in Gaza and pushing to condition U.S. military aid.

🎥 Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s Lebanon War Powers Resolution was defeated Thursday, but not before forcing Congress to go on the record over U.S. support for Israel’s war in Lebanon. The measure drew support from 90 other lawmakers and prompted Democratic leadership to back a separate resolution they say would prevent direct U.S. involvement in the conflict. Ahead of the vote, Drop Site’s Julian Andreone caught up with Tlaib, who has said “Lebanon can’t wait,” as “every day that we do nothing, 11 more Lebanese children are killed or injured by the Israeli military in this U.S.-supported invasion.” After the vote, Tlaib vowed “this fight is not over” and urged House Democratic leadership to move forward with a new Lebanon War Powers Resolution. Watch the full interview below. Rashida Tlaib | Julian Andreone

BREAKING: Senator Mullin says GOP has the votes to pass Big Beautiful Bill after Murkowski flips. Game changer in the Senate. Near certainty that the bill will pass with Murkowski. Moments ago, Senator Markwayne Mullin confirmed the GOP has secured the votes to pass the Big Beautiful Bill—thanks to Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski flipping to “yes.” Fox News reported from the Senate floor: “The vibes have definitely shifted in the last couple of moments here because Senator Markwayne Mullin told us that the GOP has the votes now to pass the Big Beautiful Bill and that is with Alaska Senator Murkowski.” “That just changed in the last couple of minutes here.” Mullin says Republicans already have the bill text locked in, and they’re simply waiting on Democrats to finish huddling: “The Democrats might put forward a couple more amendments and then the Senate Republicans will put forward a wrap-around amendment to clean this all up and it will go to final passage.” Murkowski was the critical vote they needed after some high-profile defections: “Murkowski has been the key vote that they've all been focused on for the last several hours here. That is because they already lost Rand Paul, they lost Thom Tillis and Susan Collins wouldn't say how she would vote.”

Kaine responded: “I don’t have any idea.” He added, “I don’t think last night the president gave the American public any reason to suggest that a war with Iran would be a good idea.”

Drop Site correspondent Julian Andreone pressed Sen. Pete Ricketts about a $1,000 donation he accepted from Tyson days after saying he’d “look into” whether the company violated the Stockyards and Packers Act by shutting down its Lexington, Nebraska plant. The facility has since closed, leaving more than 3,200 workers jobless in a town of 10,000. Asked about the layoffs, Ricketts speed-walked away: “Reach out to my office and we’ll get you a statement,” after an aide said, “We’re not taking any questions.” Ricketts has received $72,000 from Tyson over his career.
