Fetterman Breaks Ranks From Dems, Praises Trump Over Iran Attack

UNITED STATES, JUN 22 – Senator John Fetterman breaks with most Democrats to back Trump’s military strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, highlighting bipartisan concern over Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

  • President Donald Trump bombed three Iranian nuclear sites including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan without congressional authorization.
  • The strike followed months of failed negotiations due to Iran's refusal to make a deal and its acceleration toward nuclear weapons.
  • The decision sparked mixed reactions with Democrats expressing outrage over lack of notice, Republicans raising constitutional concerns, and some Democrats like Fetterman and Gottheimer supporting the strike.
  • Fetterman stated, "This was the correct move by POTUS," while Senator Tom Cotton said the attack "severely damaged Iran’s critical nuclear infrastructure."
  • The strikes aim to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, with bipartisan congressional briefings planned, but legal and political debates over presidential war powers continue.
