Today's Poll Question: Is Continuing the War With Iran Worse Than Cutting Off Funding For It?
About this episode
Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Which is worse, continuing the war with Iran or cutting off the funding for it?
Michael Smerconish examines one of the most difficult questions facing the United States: is the greater danger continuing the war with Iran, or ending congressional funding while American forces are already committed? He explores constitutional questions over presidential war powers, the lack of a clearly defined endgame, the risks of regional escalation, and the consequences of withdrawing support mid-conflict. Along the way, he also discusses new intelligence on Iran's nuclear program, the Trump administration's civilian nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia, and why both developments raise profound strategic questions for America's future in the Middle East.
