Is America Headed for WAR? 5 Key Questions After Trump’s Strikes on Iran

🇺🇸💥 Trump Officially Calls for REGIME CHANGE in Iran! In this explosive episode of The Josh Lafazan Show, we break down the most urgent and dangerous development in global politics this week: President Donald Trump has ordered a direct military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities — and now, he’s escalating even further by publicly calling for regime change.

What does this mean for America, Iran, and the world? Here are the 5 key questions we must urgently answer as this conflict unfolds. 👇

🔍 QUESTION 1: Will Congress Pass the War Powers Resolution?
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), with support from Rep. Ro Khanna and Sen. Bernie Sanders, has introduced a War Powers Resolution to block any further military escalation without congressional approval.
📜 Under the Constitution, only Congress can declare war — yet presidents have used AUMF loopholes for decades.
➡️ If passed, this resolution could be a game-changer, forcing Trump to consult Congress before launching another strike.
📊 Polling shows 65% of Americans agree Congress should have more say. But will Speaker Mike Johnson allow a vote?

QUESTION 2: Will Iran Close the Strait of Hormuz — and What Would That Mean for Gas Prices?
Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz — the world’s most important oil chokepoint.
🛢️ 30% of global oil shipments pass through this narrow waterway.
If Iran retaliates by blocking the strait, analysts warn U.S. gas prices could surge by $2–$3 per gallon overnight.
🆘 With oil prices already jumping and tankers at risk, the global economy is holding its breath.

🎯 QUESTION 3: How Will Iran Retaliate — And When?
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard called the U.S. strike an “act of war.” Retaliation is almost certain — but how?
⚔️ Potential responses include:

Missile strikes on U.S. bases in Iraq or Syria

Cyberattacks targeting American infrastructure

Hezbollah or Houthi-led terror attacks in the region
With 40,000 U.S. troops stationed nearby, any move from Iran could spark a dangerous spiral toward all-out war.

QUESTION 4: What Happens Next for Iran’s Nuclear Program — Is Fordow Destroyed?
The U.S. targeted Fordow, Iran’s most fortified uranium enrichment site buried deep in a mountain.
💣 Bunker-buster bombs were used — but we still don’t know the full extent of the damage.
If Fordow was destroyed, it could set Iran’s nuclear program back by years.
If not, it raises a chilling possibility: boots on the ground may be needed to finish the job. Will Israel step in next?

💥 QUESTION 5: Will There Be Another U.S. Strike — And What Could It Look Like?
If Iran retaliates — expect a massive second wave from the U.S.
🇺🇸 Pentagon sources say plans include:

Wider aerial assaults on Iranian missile and command sites

Carrier-based strikes from the Persian Gulf

Covert ops to destabilize Iran’s proxy networks
Trump must now decide: Double down? Or de-escalate?

🧠 THE BIG PICTURE:
Trump’s regime change rhetoric marks a dangerous shift — not just military, but political.
⚖️ Congress is divided, Americans are anxious, and the global community is on edge.
⏳ The clock is ticking. What happens in the next 72 hours could determine whether this moment becomes a limited conflict — or the beginning of another long, costly war in the Middle East.
