In a Friday evening vote, the U.S. Senate rejected a war powers resolution that would have blocked President Donald Trump from making further attacks on Iran, despite widespread disapproval of last week’s strikes.

Senators voted 47-53, largely along party lines, on a measure offered by Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., that would have prohibited Trump from offensive measures while preserving his ability to defend U.S. forces.

Kaine’s resolution drew near-unanimous support from Democrats, including Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.

    Yeah. OK…

    Or, as in Fetterman’s case, have a stroke and wake up with what’s left of your brain completely deranged, utterly fucked, and suffering the delusions of the rest of the MAGAts.

    There really needs to be a way to recall vote someone in any similar situation. 🤡 💩
