Sen. Todd Young (R-IN) went off behind closed doors over the lack of planning and transparency by the Trump administration in their attack on Iran — but stopped short of backing a resolution to actually require oversight of it.
According to Punchbowl News' Andrew Desiderio, Young "went off about the WH’s and GOP leadership’s handling of the Iran situation during the closed-door Republican lunch just now, per multiple sources. Young bemoaned lack of oversight or hearings by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee after Sen. Lindsey Graham got animated saying R’s should be supporting Trump on this."
However, per the report, "After the lunch, Young reiterated he’s 'inclined' to vote against the ... war powers resolution" introduced by Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) to put checks on Trump's powers to wage war.
This comes after Trump was caught lying that Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine had endorsed the Iran strategy he moved forward with, when in reality Caine provided multiple options, including far more limited actions.
It also comes as Trump offers multiple, conflicting rationales for why the United States was compelled to go to war with Iran, including that it might be retribution for the country's failed assassination attempts against him.
