Congress Faces Tensions Over Iran Deal Briefings

Top Trump officials, including Marco Rubio and Steve Witkoff, provided Congress with an update on the controversial Iran deal, but lawmakers left with more questions than answers. Lawmakers questioned the viability of negotiations, expressing concerns that talks may not succeed, while Rubio himself privately acknowledged the deal might be unlikely during a tense closed-door meeting. In separate incidents, heated exchanges occurred as representatives pressed for clarity and transparency regarding ties to the Iran discussions, leading to accusations of foul language from Trump associates. The situation remains fluid, with ongoing calls for accountability and further updates expected from House leadership.
