Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) issued a warning to lawmakers following numerous public statements made by elected officials in the aftermath of the death of Qassem Soleimani, the Iranian head of the Quds Force, in a drone strike on Thursday.

“Predictably enough, in this political environment, the operation that resulted in his death may prove controversial or divisive,” McConnell said on the floor of the Senate.
