Republicans Block Bid to Limit Trump’s Iran War Powers

New York Times: “Senate Republicans on Wednesday blocked the latest Democratic-led effort to curb President Trump’s authority to wage war on Iran, as a fragile cease-fire frays, dueling blockades choke traffic through the Strait of Hormuz and failed talks leave the next phase of the conflict uncertain.” “The move to take up the measure failed on a vote of 52 to 47. It fell largely along party lines, with Republicans and a single Democrat, Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, opposed and Democrats joined by a lone Republican, Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, in favor.”

Trump’s Fed Pick Is Caught in Unprecedented Standoff

“Kevin Warsh’s path to leading the Federal Reserve took a key step forward this week—and possibly two steps back,” the Wall Street Journal reports. “On the same day that the Senate Banking Committee announced the date of his confirmation hearing to become the next Fed chairman, prosecutors from U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s office sought to escalate the very investigation that threatens to delay his appointment.” “Then, in a Fox Business interview that aired Wednesday morning, President Trump made a full-throated defense of the probe of Chair Jerome Powell related to the renovation of the Fed’s headquarters.” “The confirmation faces a roadblock led by Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC), who has vowed not to advance any Fed nomination until the Justice Department ends its probe.”

Why House Republicans Are Protecting Cory Mills

Politico: “The pressure on Reps. Tony Gonzales and Eric Swalwell to resign Tuesday amid serious sexual assault accusations from former staffers have shown there are limits to what lawmakers will tolerate from their colleagues. And Mills, a Florida Republican, has for months been under scrutiny for allegedly breaking campaign finance rules and threatening to release nude videos of an ex.” “But key leaders and several rank-and-file members from both parties signaled this week they will wait for the conclusion of an active House Ethics Committee investigation into Mills before moving to punish him. That will include House Republicans protecting Mills from being expelled — a lawmaker could force an expulsion vote as soon as next week — until the panel releases a final report into its findings — which could come at any time.”
