Warner defends Biden's Syrian airstrike, but says Congress only got 15 minute 'head's up'

Congress must debate future authorization of military force, the Virginia senator says

The White House's strike on Iranian-backed militias in Syria was the right move but Congress didn’t have much time to process it, Senate Intelligence Committee chair Mark Warner, D-Va., told "Fox News Sunday."

"I wish the Biden team would’ve given Congress greater knowledge and greater warning," he said. "We got a head’s up about 15 minutes before the attack took place."

Regardless of timing, the senator said he backs Biden’s decision to launch the attack in order to protect U.S. troops and set the tone for the new administration.
