@podcasttop3: Donald Trump is preparing for a potential confrontation with Congress if Democrats gain control in the November 3 midterms, saying he could become “Mr Veto” and repeatedly reject legislation sent to him. But Democrats are considering their own source of leverage: federal spending. Congressman Ro Khanna says a new Democratic majority should stop funding further US military action against Iran and has called for Congress to “zero out appropriations for the war in Iran.” The conflict is entering its ninth month, with US expenditure cited in the supplied material at roughly $47 billion by October, excluding damage to American military installations. A Democratic majority could use appropriations to challenge Trump’s war policy, although the president could veto legislation and Congress would need two-thirds majorities in both chambers to override him. The next major battle over the Iran war could therefore be fought not in the Middle East, but over money on Capitol Hill.#todaynews #europenews #fyp #breakingnews
