According to news reports, the U.S. House of Representatives voted decisively on Tuesday to reject a resolution seeking the impeachment of President Donald Trump over his unauthorized military strikes on Iran. The resolution, introduced by Democratic Representative Al Green and co-sponsored by Republican Representative Thomas Massie, was overwhelmingly defeated in a 344-79 vote.
The measure accused President Trump of bypassing Congress and violating the constitutional separation of powers by ordering weekend airstrikes on Iranian military and nuclear sites without prior congressional approval. Critics of the strikes argued that the president’s unilateral decision risked escalating tensions in the volatile Middle East region and set a dangerous precedent for executive overreach in matters of war and peace.
