House Intel Chairman Adam Schiff called for Congressional hearings into Trump's drone strike that killed top Iran commander and terrorist Qassem Soleimani.
"The president has put us on a path where we may be at war with Iran. That requires the Congress to fully engage," Schiff told WaPo.
Schiff echoed Speaker Pelosi and said there's "Absolutely no way" Trump should retaliate to a potential attack from Iran with "Disproportionate" actions.
President Trump put Iran on notice over the weekend and stated that there are 52 targets that "Will be hit very has and very hard" if Iran were to strike any American or American target.
"I'm certainly not satisfied that the intelligence supports the conclusion that the killing of Soleimani was going to either prevent attacks on the United States or reduce the risk to American lives," Schiff told the Post.
"I don't think the intelligence was of the kind of character that would lead to a uniform recommendation that Soleimani should be killed," Schiff added.
President Trump had the full authority to order the drone strike that killed Soleimani.
