Former NJ Judge Calls Trump's Iran War End Notification a 'Frivolous' Legal Loophole
Former New Jersey Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitano called President Trump's May 1 notification to Congress about ending the war with Iran a 'frivolous' and 'farcical' legal loophole. The White House claims a ceasefire resets the 60-day period under the 1973 War Powers Resolution, but Napolitano says this misreads the statute, which uses 'introduction' not 'ceasefire'. He noted the 60-day period expired May 1 and Congress denying approval by doing nothing means military operations must wind down.
