Trump critic Massie joins Democrats in unprecedented bid to sue White House over Iran war

A lone House Republican is joining Democrats in an effort to get President Donald Trump sued over the Iran war.

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., is one of the co-sponsors of a new resolution aimed at compelling House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to sue the Trump administration over allegations the president is violating federal law with the U.S. conflict in the Middle East.

The bill is also being led by Rep. Gregory Meeks, D-N.Y., the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, as well as Reps. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., Gabe Amo, D-R.I., Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., Jason Crow, D-Colo., and Ro Khanna, D-Calif.

Massie accused Trump and Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth of being "in blatant violation of two sections of the War Powers Resolution of 1973."
