WASHINGTON: The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday overwhelmingly rejected a motion to impeach President Donald Trump over his authorization of military strikes on Iran without prior congressional approval, U.S. media reported.The resolution, introduced by Representative Al Green of Texas, accused Trump of abuse of power for ordering the strikes without seeking authorization from Congress. However, the House voted 344–79 to table the motion, effectively shelving it.The effort received limited debate and divided Democrats, with most joining Republicans to block the measure. Still, dozens of Democrats supported Green’s attempt.“I take no delight in what I’m doing,” Green said before the vote. “I do this because no one person should have the power to take over 300 million people to war without consulting the Congress of the United States of America. The Constitution is going to be meaningful or it’s going to be meaningless.”Read More: Trump warns Israel against dropping ‘any more bombs on Iran’Donald Trump said on Tuesday that both Israel and Iran violated a ceasefire he announced hours earlier and he was not happy with either country but especially Israel.Speaking to reporters before leaving for the NATO summit in The Hague, Trump said Israel “unloaded” right after agreeing to the deal.
