Pete Hegseth told the Senate the 60-day War Powers clock "pauses, or stops" during a ceasefire. There is no such pause provision in the 1973 act. Tim Kaine: "I do not believe the law supports that." POGO's David Janovsky goes further — the Navy boarding Iranian vessels and the active blockade *themselves* qualify as ongoing "hostilities." Hegseth's blunt formulation Thursday: "the White House will ultimately make the call on when the war ends." #OSINT
