Republicans back Trump, Democrats attack 'illegal' Iran war

"Today, Iran is facing the severe consequences of its evil actions," including "terrorism," the murder of Americans and the regime's sustained nuclear ambitions, Speaker of the House of Representatives Mike Johnson said in a statement. "We pray for the safety of our brave servicemembers and our allies involved in Operation Epic Fury," the top Republican in Congress added. However, the top Democrat in the Senate, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, demanded a briefing to Congress by the Trump administration.
