Congress to Trump: Stop the War! | DeProgram with Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas

Author: Ted Rall and Jamarl Thomas June 4, 2026 Duration: 1:04:33

Conflict reporter/writer/cartoonist Ted Rall and political analyst Jamarl Thomas deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM EST.

Today we discuss:

• The US House of Representatives votes under the War Powers Act to stop halt Trump’s war on Iran as the conflict drags into a fourth month. The vote was a striking commentary on just how much Republicans are losing patience with Trump and his war. It was a sign that a small but significant number of them are less willing to give him more time to try and figure a way out.

Israel and Lebanon agreed to a full ceasefire, contingent on Hezbollah halting attacks and withdrawing its operatives from the area south of the Litani River in Lebanon, according to a joint statement from the U.S., Israel and Lebanon.

Protests have grown against plans by Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, to develop luxury properties on an ecologically sensitive portion of the Albanian coast. The protests, in the capital and in coastal towns, have become a lightning rod for widespread discontent in Albania, long one of Europe’s poorest countries. For years, the plans — a $1.4 billion luxury hotel complex on an island off the coast and another development on a peninsula that is home to sensitive wetlands — have generated concerns about conservation and transparency.
