Sixty days since the U.S. military action against Iran, the White House says it has ended; Trump criticizes the War Powers Resolution as unconstitutional

Friday marks the 60th day of the war launched by the United States and Israel against Iran. Under the 1973 War Powers Resolution, the U.S. President must terminate any military action involving U.S. forces within a 60-day period unless Congress authorizes its continuation, when such action is taken without formal congressional declaration of war or authorization. The White House has formally notified Congress that hostile actions against Iran have been "terminated," despite the continued presence of U.S. military forces in the Middle East. Meanwhile, Trump stated on Friday that the War Powers Resolution is "unconstitutional."
