Trump Wins His Standoff with Iran
-The Washington Post
“When Trump drew his red line—warning Tehran that if it killed even one American, the United States would respond militarily against Iran—the regime never expected him to enforce it.

Nancy Pelosi’s Pointless War-Powers Ploy
-New York Post
“Speaker Nancy Pelosi just pushed through a bill aiming to limit President Trump’s ability to hit Iran, even though the crisis is over. Why? Thursday’s House passage of her war-powers resolution is almost certainly pure symbolism. Nothing like this is going to pass the Senate, and even if it did its constitutional status would be dubious,” the New York Post editorial board writes.
