Senate Judiciary leader Lindsey Graham has given Donald Trump the go-ahead to retaliate for Iran bombings on two US airbases Tuesday night. The Senator called the missile strikes an ‘act of war’ and stated that Trump has all the authority he needs under Article II to respond.
Graham also issued a warning to Iran, stating that their fate is in their own hands in terms of the regime’s economic viability. He emphasized the need for the regime’s behavior to change in areas such as their ballistic missile program, state sponsorship of terrorism, and nuclear deal terms.
Additionally, Graham expressed his confidence in President Trump’s understanding of the Iranian situation and thanked the military personnel serving in the Mideast for their role in safeguarding against radical Islam.
