Johnson: The idea that a few colleagues here would try to move a war powers motion and resolution to the floor right now is dangerous. It plays right into the hands of the enemy. I think it's shameful.

🚨 BREAKING: Speaker Johnson just PUMMELED Democrats for playing right into the hands of Iran by trying to force a War Powers vote and hamstring President Trump "The IDEA some members would play along with that plays RIGHT into the hands of the enemy! I believe we have the votes to defeat it!" "The idea a few colleagues would try to move a War Powers resolution to the floor is DANGEROUS! IMAGINE Congress voting to tell the Commander-in-Chief he can no longer complete this mission! That would be a VERY dangerous thing. Iran is firing almost indiscriminately!" The War Powers vote must lose.

ICYMI: Rep. Ro Khanna and I appeared on Face The Nation this morning to discuss our War Powers Resolution. Congress has the sole authority to authorize war. Speaker Mike Johnson should bring our Resolution to the floor for a vote immediately.

It’s long overdue for my Republican colleagues to do what is necessary and right. Speaker Johnson should immediately reconvene the House and tee up a vote on a War Powers resolution to immediately stop President Trump's illegal and immoral acts of war.

The temporary cessation of hostilities in Iran is not a sustainable, nor an effective strategy for peace. This is about to be the least debated conflict in our history. Speaker Johnson must allow Congress to debate and we must pass a War Powers Resolution to permanently end this unauthorized war.

Remember this! Speaker Mike Johnson sent everyone home and disappeared. He knew what was coming: a war crime. Hakeem Jeffries is speaking truth to power while the Speaker hides. A vote on the War Powers Resolution is overdue.

Q: What would your message be to President Trump right now about this war? A: Just please think about the people, man. What are we really doing there besides raising our prices?

“That’s just a ridiculous idea that Congress has to authorize a war,” Lindsey Graham says. Tuberville on whether the military campaign in Iran is a war: “I’d call it a conflict that should be very short and sweet.” Speaker Johnson: “I think this is an operation.”

As the Senate failed to advance a war powers measure for the seventh time on Wednesday that would limit President Trump’s ability to use military force against Iran, Sen. Lindsey Graham called the War Powers Resolution “patently unconstitutional.” “The whole concept of a war powers act is dangerous, absurd, and will lead to just chaos,” Graham (R-SC) said. "You can't have Congress running wars," he added. "If you want to stop war, stop the funding.”

Mike Johnson needs to call the House back to D.C. immediately so that we can pass a War Powers Resolution. Donald Trump is completely out of control and must be reined in. Americans asked for lower prices, not reckless wars.

🇺🇸 SPEAKER JOHNSON: INCITE VIOLENCE IS NOT FREE SPEECH "America is built on the idea of free speech. You have the right to protest. We've defended that right in the courts. But what they're doing right now is different. I mean, they are trying to incite violence. You don't mock a president who has already had two failed assassination attempts on his life."

My War Powers Resolution is a vote of conscience. Congress must stand up for our fellow Americans, our Constitution, and our Article I authorities. Vote YES to end this war.

I’m back in DC with Sam to demand that Speaker Johnson hold a vote on our bipartisan resolution to allow new moms and dads to vote remotely while caring for their newborns. Speaker Johnson himself has voted remotely 39 times—but now he’s pulling every trick in the book to stop our resolution. New parents shouldn’t be blocked from doing their jobs just because they’re starting a family. We’re going to keep fighting until we get this done.
