Republican Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy flipped his war powers vote Wednesday night just hours after Trump administration officials pulled him into the Situation Room.<\/p>\n

Cassidy was briefed in the Situation Room by Vice President JD Vance and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff on Iran, prompting him to change his vote against the war powers resolution later that night. The briefing came after Cassidy got into a shouting match with President Donald Trump over Iran during a heated, closed-door lunch on Capitol Hill, where several senators clashed with the president.

\u201cI want to thank Vice President Vance and Special Envoy Witkoff for the thorough briefing this afternoon on Iran,\u201d Cassidy said in a post on X. \u201cI appreciate the quick invitation to the White House to address many of my concerns.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is a stark contrast to Cassidy\u2019s remarks following lunch, when he said, \u201cI\u2019m not going to be bullied when I\u2019m trying to get answers for the American people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cassidy has been on offense ever since he lost his primary to Trump-endorsed challenger Julia Letlow in May. Cassidy finished in third place with 24.8% despite being the incumbent Republican senator.<\/p>\n

Cassidy is not the only senator to change his tune on the war powers vote. Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul changed his vote to \u201cpresent\u201d after Trump railed against him and some of his colleagues during the lunch.

\u201cTonight I will vote present on the War Powers resolution,\u201d Paul said in a post on X. \u201cMy opinion on the debate over war and executive power has not changed and I have voted that way several times. But since hostilities seem to be over and the President asked me to give consideration to his negotiating position, I will do so.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy vote of present is a way to give the President more space and leverage to negotiate a lasting peace.\u201d<\/p>\n
