Iran (Executive Session)

The Senate held an executive session debate on the conflict with Iran. Senator Murphy said the administration was in a stalemate with Iran, spending billions of dollars on strikes while Iran responded by keeping the Strait of Hormuz closed and attacking U.S. bases. He argued the war was raising gas prices and harming the military, said President Trump had announced peace deals right before markets opened that Murphy described as untrue, and raised concerns about people paying for early access to the president’s foreign policy decisions. He called on Republicans to join him in demanding an end to the war.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
