as posted by the channel

Sen. Ruben Gallego on the Iran war, War Powers, drone warfare, and why the U.S. is "chasing the dragon" | Iraq War veteran and Arizona senator delivers a blunt warning about escalation, ground troops, and the path to a nuclear Iran.

Sen. Gallego joins Jake Sullivan and Jon Finer to explain why Congress has failed to rein in the Executive Branch’s ability to wage war and why even limited military action against Iran could be far more dangerous than expected.

Then, Jake and Jon review Trump’s narrowing options on Iran and reflect on their experience in the Obama White House seeking authorization for strikes in Syria and what it reveals about why Congress avoids voting on war.
