The Senate handed President Trump another win on Tuesday. A Democrat-led war powers resolution meant to tie his hands on Iran failed to advance, falling one vote short. The motion to discharge the resolution from committee went down 47-48. The headline of the afternoon was who helped kill it. @SenFettermanPA just voted "no" with the Republicans on advancing the war powers resolution.@DailyCaller https://t.co/DrBvdlZrWH — Nicole Silverio (@NicoleMSilverio) June 16, 2026 Democrat John Fetterman of Pennsylvania voted no, lining up with most Republicans against his own party’s effort. The resolution, S.J.Res.172, was the Warnock War Powers Resolution. The Daily Caller reported that it would have directed President Trump to pull U.S. forces out of hostilities in Iran. Four Republicans broke the other way and voted in favor: Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Rand Paul. The Daily Caller also noted that the House passed its own concurrent war powers resolution on June 3 by a 215-208 vote. That House measure is largely symbolic and carries no legal force to bind President Trump. So the Senate was the place that mattered, and the Senate said no. The U.S. Senate Daily Press recorded the official floor update this way: 3:56 p.m. The Senate did not adopt the motion to discharge S.J.Res.172, Warnock War Powers Resolution from the Foreign Relations Committee, 47-48. Republicans voting in favor: Cassidy, Collins, Murkowski & Paul. Democrat voting against: Fetterman. Senators not voting: Bennet, Booker, Hawley, McConnell & Sanders. The Senate Press Gallery posted the same tally as the vote came down: The #Senate did not adopt the motion to discharge S.J.Res.172, Warnock War Powers Resolution from the Foreign Relations Committee, 47-48.GOP in favor: Cassidy, Collins, Murkowski & Paul.Dem against: Fetterman.Not voting: Bennet, Booker, Hawley, McConnell & Sanders. — Senate Press Gallery (@SenatePress) June 16, 2026 Five senators sat the vote out entirely: Michael Bennet, Cory Booker, Josh Hawley, Mitch McConnell, and Bernie Sanders. The timing of the fight underlines how detached the resolution had become from events. President Trump announced a diplomatic breakthrough on Sunday, with a 60-day ceasefire and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Some lawmakers were still pressing for more details about the deal as they tried to clip his authority. That is the picture the vote left behind. Democrats wanted to restrain a president who had just delivered a ceasefire and reopened one of the world’s most important shipping lanes. They could not even hold their own caucus together to do it.

Rep. Kevin Hern won Oklahoma’s Republican U.S. Senate primary on Tuesday night, and he wasted no time telling voters what he plans to do with the seat. The first issue out of his mouth was the SAVE America Act. Hern told Fox News Digital that the voter ID and citizenship verification bill is the issue he hears about constantly from Oklahomans on the trail. President Trump endorsed Hern early in the race, and in deep-red Oklahoma that backing carries weight. Kevin Hern has been a true MAGA patriot representing Oklahoma in the House of Representatives! VOTE TODAY to send Kevin to the general in November where he will WIN and become your next U.S. Senator! MAGA! https://t.co/fA1bLg3cl7 — Team Trump (Text TRUMP to 88022) (@TeamTrump) June 16, 2026 The numbers explain why the primary mattered more than November will. 270toWin lays out the background on the seat. Alan Armstrong was appointed in March to succeed Markwayne Mullin after Mullin became Secretary of Homeland Security. Armstrong signed an affidavit pledging not to seek a full term, which left the seat wide open. In a state President Trump has carried three times, winning all 77 counties each run, the Republican nominee is highly likely to become the next senator. So Hern’s win Tuesday is, for practical purposes, the main event. Fox News Digital reported the win and Hern’s vow to push the SAVE America Act once he gets to the Senate. The bill would require voter ID and citizenship verification, and it has stalled. Democrats have vowed to block it, and some Republicans have opposed versions of it. Hern told Fox that Oklahoma voters love President Trump and know he works hand in hand with him. That is the case he is making for the upper chamber. Hern is not a freshman face. He has served five terms in the House and climbed to the fourth-highest spot in House GOP leadership as Republican Policy Committee chairman. His official House biography fills in the rest. He was born on an Air Force base, worked as an aerospace engineer, and bought his first McDonald’s restaurant in 1997. He moved to Oklahoma in 1999 and eventually owned 24 McDonald’s restaurants employing thousands of people across Northeastern Oklahoma. He was sworn into Congress in November 2018 and served on Ways and Means. The McDonald’s history earned him the nickname McCongressman, a nod to the franchise empire he built before politics. Fox also noted he grew up without indoor plumbing, the kind of biography that plays well in a state full of voters who built things the hard way. On primary day, Hern was out in Oklahoma City waving signs as voters headed to the polls. Great morning out in Oklahoma City waving signs as folks head to the polls. The energy and excitement we’ve seen has been incredible. Oklahomans want a strong conservative voice in the Senate, and I’m ready to get them the results they deserve. Get out and vote Hern for U.S.… pic.twitter.com/K9eWus1Xd8 — Kevin Hern (@krhern) June 16, 2026 The SAVE Act has sat in limbo while the left treats basic election integrity as a threat. Hern is betting that a Senate seat from a state that backs President Trump without hesitation gives the bill a louder voice and a harder shove. If he holds the seat in November, that fight gets a new ally in the chamber that has been blocking it. This is a Guest Post from our friends over at WLTReport. View the original article here.

Hats off to the FBI for preventing this horrific plot. As WLT Report covered earlier on Monday, the FBI has announced they arrested five suspects who allegedly planned using drones rigged with explosives to hit buildings near the White House. The plan by the suspects was to cause multiple explosions that would result in people running into an area where the suspects planned to have snipers ready to shoot. Now mugshots have been released of the suspects: NEW: Photos of the two southern California men the Feds say were part of a plotted mass casualty drone & sniper attack at the UFC event at the White House. Bryan Roa is identified as the man on left. On the right, Michael Thomas. pic.twitter.com/rmU1kASwT4 — Matt Finn (@MattFinnFNC) June 16, 2026 Another suspect: A 19-year-old Ohio man arrested for the alleged terror plot against UFC Freedom 250 has been identified … and authorities say he called out his alleged co-conspirators during an interview with them. Read more: https://t.co/5ZKwAUzXfU pic.twitter.com/pt9KhQleUc — TMZ (@TMZ) June 16, 2026 Fox News shared further details on the suspects and provided their identities: The FBI and its law enforcement partners disrupted an alleged plot targeting this weekend’s UFC Freedom 250 event in Washington, D.C., officials told Fox News Digital. Five people were in custody as of Monday, and investigators identified 23 people as part of a potential network of plotters. The alleged plan involved using explosive-laden drones to hit buildings near the event, force a mass evacuation and steer crowds toward a pre-staged sniper team, officials said. A “second wave” was then allegedly planned to storm the White House gate, according to officials. The FBI first learned of the threat on June 10 and worked with partners to secure probable cause for an arrest in Cincinnati, where one suspect was taken into custody. Court documents identified the suspect as 19-year-old Tycen Proper. According to a criminal complaint, Proper allegedly spent $3,000 of his “graduation money” to purchase “lots of” ammunition, guns, extra magazines and other items for the alleged attack. Authorities estimated that several boxes of ammunition that Proper had allegedly acquired contained thousands of rounds. It is also alleged that Proper acquired an AR-style rifle, a bullpup rifle painted with the American flag and two plate carriers with AR-style magazines. His family voluntarily turned over the equipment to law enforcement. His father told officers that Proper had quit his job to meet up with people he had met online to conduct “missions” and “recons,” according to the complaint. It said that Proper’s mother had first alerted authorities over concerns about his recent alleged firearm purchases and communications with individuals online. Two others, identified as Bryan Omar Roa and Michael Alan Thomas, were arrested in California for alleged involvement in the plot. Both men were charged with conspiracy to commit murder. They appeared in court on Monday in Riverside. Evidence released by the DOJ: The Justice Department announced today charges against five men for an alleged plot to carry out an attack to kill government officials and others attending the UFC Freedom 250 event held at the White House last Sunday. “The FBI, our law enforcement partners and our U.S.… pic.twitter.com/nr8fKn6Pdr — U.S. Department of Justice (@TheJusticeDept) June 16, 2026 The DOJ released the following details on the five suspects arrested: Tycen Proper According to filed complaints in the Southern District of Ohio, the Western District of Missouri, the District of Nebraska, and the Central District of California, investigators interviewed Proper at a medical facility on June 11. During the interview, he allegedly said he had planned with others a coordinated attack against the U.S. government during the UFC event at the White House. He said members of the group who wanted to participate in the attack began communicating with each other around March. More serious members of the group, including Proper, moved their communications to an encrypted chat app. They planned to fly small drones with explosives to detonate over the north side of the UFC arena, forcing high value targets to evacuate the premises; the group would then act as snipers and shoot these individuals. Before executing the plan, Proper and other conspirators allegedly planned to rendezvous in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Proper allegedly amassed firearms, thousands of rounds of ammunition, and tactical gear at his home in Ohio, and he identified potential targets, including multiple members of Congress. Bryan Roa According to the complaint filed in the Central District of California, law enforcement executed a search warrant of Roa’s residence and vehicle where they allegedly seized a rifle, handgun, tactical belt, ammunition and a rifle magazine, a two-way radio, and an infrared laser target pointer. A search of Roa’s phone allegedly found messages in a group with Thomas, Proper, and others discussing an attack at the UFC event at the White House, with some users discussing using drones rigged with explosives to initiate the attack, with rooftop snipers killing individuals. Law enforcement also allegedly found Instagram videos Roa had posted of himself shooting guns. Michael Thomas According to the complaint filed in the Central District of California, Thomas allegedly participated in a group chat planning an attack at the UFC event at the White House. In a group chat, on June 7, he allegedly wrote “$1300 gets us the drones and the charges. Yes we should all pitch in and we need it asap…” In another group chat, Thomas, under a pseudonym, allegedly described “tiers” of operators within their anti-government group, with tier 1 being operators on the ground, tier 2 being drivers and drone operators, tier 3 being logistical suppliers, and tier 4 being social media influencers. “Tier one status is not something to take lightly. … We will make sure they have…All the tier 2 support we can provide. We will try to break them out of jail if we need to.” In the same group chats, Thomas discussed meeting with Roa in person in Southern California in order to conduct “marksmen training” and reflected that the group needed to train for “gorilla style warfare.” In a June 13 search warrant, FBI agents allegedly seized from Thomas’ residence a rifle, 30-round extended magazines for the rifle, 180 of rounds of ammunition, and a pistol. Daniel Eskridge Eskridge was charged with conspiracy to commit murder on White House grounds. According to an affidavit filed in the Western District of Missouri, the FBI identified Eskridge while reviewing electronic communications on Proper’s cell phone. The co-conspirators had electronic chats on encrypted social media platforms. In those chats, members of the group allegedly discussed assassinating several U.S. Senators, Representatives, and prominent business executives. Members of the group targeted some legislators based on the group’s perceived belief that the legislators accepted money from pro-Israel lobbies. When discussing potential targets, Eskridge indicated that the target was “big and someone a majority of the country knows.” In the discussions, power grids were also identified as potential targets. On May 22, Eskridge distributed a picture of tactical equipment, including a rifle, helmet, and ballistic vest. Also according to the affidavit, in a separate chat group, a conversation took place in early June when Eskridge and some of the other chat group members discussed their plan to attack the UFC Freedom 250 event. Specifically, Thomas stated, “Pensilvania [sic] avenue.” Eskridge said the group should obtain $1,300 in U.S. currency and they needed “5 teams of 3 each team consisting of 1 sniper, 1 tier one operator as support/ look out, [and] one drone operator.” Eskridge said the money would provide them the funding to purchase “drones and charges,” and encouraged the group to all “pitch in.” On June 13, law enforcement officials executed a federal search warrant of Eskridge’s residence. Agents recovered rifles, a shot gun, pistol, and other tactical gear. Abraham Alvarez According to the charges filed in Nebraska, the FBI identified Alvarez as the individual using the name “Shepherd” in an encrypted chat app that was used to plan an attack on the UFC Freedom 250 event scheduled to be held at the White House on June 14. The FBI assessed that Alvarez, also known as “Shepherd,” was responsible for planning, organizing, and directing the planned attack, based on conversation excerpts in June when Shepherd posted, “This is the best action I see. Position your teams in the purple dots (counter sniper and drones) Long range (circled area) (great shot) Easy out into the river.” Shepherd also allegedly posted other messages including replying to another member on making drones with explosives, “As many and as deadly as we can get.”; that he was working on drones; and had one drone and was working on more. The complaint further alleges that Shepherd provided a picture and directions for a safe zone at an old church in Nebraska. He instructed the other members to take back roads or the river down to the “pick up location.” Later that same evening, Shepherd also provided locations in the area for drone launch points and sniper positions. If convicted of conspiracy to commit murder, each defendant faces a maximum penalty of life in prison and a $250,000 fine. Conspiracy to commit violence on White House grounds carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison. This is a Guest Post from our friends over at WLTReport. View the original article here.

Even when his then-wife was a top first-term spokesperson for President Donald Trump, attorney George Conway clung to relevance by hopping from one cable news to the next with his latest rant against the administration. Fast-forward to 2026, and Conway is doing pretty much the same thing … but this time, it’s part of a campaign to represent New York in the US House of Representatives. Fox News outlined his singular focus on getting Trump: “Hi, Donald. It’s me, George Conway. I cost you 88 f—— million dollars, and I’ve only just gotten started,” Conway said in a 60-second spot overlooking the U.S. Capitol that was rolled out on Monday. “I know you like putting your name on everything from your plane to the Kennedy Center.” “But the only thing your name is going to be left on when I’m done with you is the orange jumpsuit you’re going to have to wear in prison,” Conway continued. “And you see that building back there,” Conway added, pointing to the Capitol building. “That’s where we’re going to hold your third and final impeachment trial, the one that’s going to put you away for good, and I’m going to enjoy every minute of that.” The incendiary rhetoric didn’t get him any new fans on social media: This guy spends most of his campaign ad to try and win a seat in Congress so he can "get Trump" by… talking about Trump. Talk about living rent free. — marfdrat (@marfdrat) June 16, 2026 Conways at a tattoo parlor getting several Nazi tats to make him more palatable for the mainstream Dem party..! — DNunn13 (@DNunn1363889) June 16, 2026 Who's your President bitch?

Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) and represent New York’s 12th Congressional District, addresses President Trump in the ad.

Another Trump-backed Senate candidate just scored a big win! Rep. Mike Collins won the Republican U.S. Senate primary in Georgia today, defeating contender Derek Dooley. Now, he will be facing off with current Democrat Sen. John Ossoff in November.

Now it’s time to get to work, defeat Jon Ossoff, and take this seat back for the people of this state. Hammer Down! pic.twitter.com/zfol9yBXdN — Mike Collins (@MikeCollinsGA) June 17, 2026 Collins and Dooley advanced to a runoff after neither candidate managed to win over 50% of the vote in last month’s Georgia GOP primary. President Trump didn’t give his coveted endorsement to Rep. Collins until this past weekend — a move that proved to be pivotal in helping him secure a win. Now, the goal is to oust Ossoff and secure another Trump-backed Republican seat in the Senate! Fox News reported further: The Trump-backed Collins on Tuesday defeated former college football coach Derek Dooley in the Republican runoff election, the Associated Press reports, and will face Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff in November’s election in a race that’s among a handful that will likely decide if the GOP holds its slim majority in the chamber in this autumn’s midterm elections. Republicans view Ossoff as the most vulnerable Senate Democrat seeking re-election and are heavily targeting the first-term senator. Collins, a two-term federal lawmaker who represents Georgia’s 10th Congressional District, which is located between Atlanta and Augusta, is the son of the late Rep. Mac Collins, and is the founder and co-owner, along with his wife, of a trucking company. He and Dooley, a lawyer, a former University of Tennessee football coach and the son of legendary University of Georgia head football coach Vince Dooley, were the top two finishers in a crowded field of candidates that also included Rep. Buddy Carter. But since no one topped 50% in last month’s primary, Collins and Dooley advanced to Tuesday’s runoff election. While Collins showcased his MAGA credentials and support for the president, Trump remained neutral in the Georgia primary and runoff elections for Senate until Saturday night. “It’s an honor to have that endorsement. It just shows that he has confidence that we know how to win this race, we know we’re in the lead in this thing,” Collins told Fox News Digital on Sunday, hours after landing Trump’s endorsement.
