Senator Says Trump Officials Told Us' There Will Be More Americans That Are Going To Die'

"This is as serious as it gets. This is war and peace. They told us in that room that there are gonna be more Americans that are gonna die, that they're not gonna be able to stop these drones."

"I am more fearful than ever after this briefing that we may be putting boots on the ground and that troops from the United States may be necessary to accomplish objectives that the administration seems to have."

"We pray for the full recovery of the wounded and send our immense love and eternal gratitude to the families of the fallen. And sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That's the way it is, likely be more."

Following a closed-door briefing on Tuesday, Senator Chris Murphy reported that Trump administration officials informed lawmakers that additional American deaths are expected in the ongoing Iran conflict. Murphy characterized the situation as a matter of war and peace, emphasizing the gravity of the administration's military campaign. Senator Richard Blumenthal expressed heightened concern about the possibility of American troops being deployed to Iran. Trump previously acknowledged the likelihood of further casualties in a video message. Both senators indicated alarm over the administration's military trajectory, with Murphy calling for a vote on a War Powers Act resolution to restrict the president's authority to wage extended military operations without congressional approval.
