President Trump says bombing will continue in Iran throughout the week and as long as necessary as Iran threatens retaliation for strikes from the U.S.

and Israel.

The president's not expected to speak today, but we're told key members of Congress will get a briefing later today.

Bloomberg Balance of Power host Joe Matthews says it comes as some lawmakers push for a war powers vote this week to curb the president's authority on future action without congressional approval.

Bloomberg's Joe Matthew on Bloomberg this weekend, and he's talking about reporting there from The New York Times that said the CIA helped pinpoint a gathering of Iranian leaders ahead of Israel's attacks on Iran.

Again, Iran has vowed to retaliate and has now formed a council to govern while picking a new leader to succeed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

President Trump did warn on Truth Social that if it does retaliate, will hit them with a force that has never been seen before.

Meantime, sirens have been ringing all morning in Jerusalem with more targeted strikes expected throughout the week and possibly beyond.
