'Just another partisan exercise,' Schiff says of Trump's strike on Iranian sites

President Donald Trump’s decision to bomb Iranian nuclear sites “should never have been ordered,” Sen. Adam Schiff said Sunday.

The California Democrat said that “in the absence of evidence that Iran was imminently breaking out to build a bomb, and without congressional approval,” Trump should never have proceeded with the strike, Schiff said on X.

Schiff and Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif., were sharply critical Sunday of Trump’s failure to seek congressional authorization — or at least have bipartisan briefings — before the Saturday decision.

“Before any further military action is taken, President Trump must come before Congress,” Padilla said Sunday in a statement. “Trump risks igniting a wider war in a region that puts American lives at risk and that he himself has warned repeatedly against.”

Schiff, speaking on CNN’s “State of the Union,” said failing to brief Democratic lawmakers was “making this just another partisan exercise by the administration when it comes to something as serious as the decision to potentially engage in warfare with another nation.”

While Congress has the power to declare war, it has not formally done so since World War II. It did authorize President George W. Bush to act against Iraq and Afghanistan in the 2000s.
