For months, Republican leaders have defended President Donald Trump’s campaign against Iran. Now one of Trump’s closest allies on Capitol Hill is publicly delivering another message<\/a>: it’s time to finish the job and come home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

House Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday called on the administration to wrap up the war, arguing that the United States has already achieved its primary military objectives and should avoid allowing the conflict to become another prolonged American intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘We’ve got to wrap it up’<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Speaking to reporters at the Capitol, Johnson was asked whether Congress might eventually step in to limit Trump’s war powers if the fighting continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than entertain that possibility, the speaker predicted the campaign was nearing its conclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I think we’re wrapping it up,” Johnson said. “We’ve got to wrap it up.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He cautioned that allowing the conflict to drag on would be damaging not only for the United States but for the broader international community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“That would be a disaster for everybody,” he said. “Everybody around the world understands that.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
