The House passed the measure, 224-194, with just three Republicans voting in support. Eight Democrats opposed the measure.

The House vote was scheduled shortly after a briefing on Iran Wednesday by top administration officials that many Democrats criticized as lacking specific justification for the killing.

Trump said Iran appears to be "standing down" and said no Americans or Iraqis were harmed in Iran's ballistic missile strike on two Iraqi bases housing U.S. troops.

Comedian George Lopez says a comment he made about collecting an alleged bounty on President Donald Trump's head was "a joke" after catching backlash on social media.

The Pentagon on Monday distanced itself from President Donald Trump's assertions that he would bomb Iranian cultural sites despite international prohibitions on such attacks.

The United Nations’ cultural agency UNESCO called on governments to remember that cultural sites are not targets following U.S. President Donald Trump’s weekend tweets on targeting Iranian sites. 

“This week, the House will introduce and vote on a War Powers Resolution to limit the President’s military actions regarding Iran,” Pelosi wrote.

Despite concerns that targeting Iranian cultural sites could be an international war crime, President Trump repeated threats Sunday to destroy those locations.

President Trump issued a stark warning to Iran on Saturday, threatening to hit dozens of targets in the Islamic Republic “very fast and very hard” if it retaliates for the targeted killing of Gen. Qassem Soleimani.

Did President Trump have the legal authority to order the killing of a top Iranian general in Iraq? The answer depends largely on facts that aren’t publicly known yet.

President Donald Trump, currently facing an impeachment trial in the Senate while aiming for reelection in 2020, claimed in 2011 that then-President Barack Obama would start a war with Iran to get reelected. 

President Donald Trump spoke on Friday from Palm Beach, Florida, as he was leaving his Mar-a-Lago property to attend a rally, in his first on-camera public comments since his order to kill a powerful Iranian general. 

In his first comments since the strike against the head of Iran’s elite Quds Force early Friday, Trump said Soleimani was also responsible for killing and wounding “thousands” of Americans and many more in the region.

The 750 soldiers deploying immediately were in addition to 14,000 U.S. troops who had deployed to the Gulf region since May in response to concerns about Iranian aggression, including its alleged sabotage of commercial shipping in the Persian Gulf.

The president’s tweet marked his first comment on the weekend U.S. airstrikes in Iraq and Syria.

Both Trump and Obama were named by Americans as the person they admire most.

Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke with President Donald Trump on Sunday to thank him for information that Putin said helped Russia foil terrorist attacks over the New Year's holiday, the Kremlin said.
