McGovern to GOP: ‘Never a Good Time’ to Assert War Powers on Trump’s Venezuela Strike

Описание: #United States #usa
Tensions are rising on Capitol Hill after Democratic Congressman Jim McGovern criticized Republican leaders for blocking efforts to assert Congress’ war powers following President Donald Trump’s alleged military strike involving Venezuela.

Speaking during a heated House debate, McGovern said there is “never a good time” for Congress to surrender its constitutional authority over war, accusing the GOP of putting party loyalty above national security and democratic principles.

The controversy comes as lawmakers clash over whether the president acted without proper congressional approval, reigniting the long-running debate over the War Powers Resolution and the limits of executive authority.

Republicans argue the action was necessary for U.S. security interests and claim the resolution would weaken the president’s ability to respond to international threats. Democrats, however, insist that no president should have unchecked power to launch military operations without Congress.

This political showdown is now fueling a broader conversation about presidential power, foreign policy, and the role of Congress in matters of war — with Venezuela becoming the latest flashpoint in America’s ongoing global influence debate.

Stay tuned for the latest updates from Washington as this developing story continues.
