The Republican-led Senate on Wednesday rejected the latest Democratic attempt to halt Donald Trump’s war in Iran, turning aside a resolution that would require the U.S. to withdraw forces from the conflict until Congress authorizes further action.
The 47-52 vote was the fourth time this year that the Senate has voted to cede its war powers to the president in a conflict that Democrats say is illegal and unjustified.
Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman was the only Democrat to vote against it. Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky voted with Democrats.
No, he was a racist and a zionist before he was elected, we just chose not to see it. The alternatives in the primary were just as bad. This was lost when Fetterman was the left most candidate in the primary.
Ah okay, fair enough.
I mourn that money that could have gone to a real progressive. Instead we have this.
