Senators Wicker and Fetterman call on Trump to resume strikes on Iran
Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS), chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee, posted on X calling on President Trump to break a ceasefire and resume military strikes against Iran, arguing negotiations have failed. Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) endorsed Wicker's post, writing 'Full agree.' A ceasefire announced earlier in the month has largely held, though a military airlift has fueled speculation of renewed strikes.
