The U.S. Senate on Thursday advanced a resolution blocking Donald Trump’s ability to use further military force against Venezuela without the approval of Congress, rebuking an emboldened president who has continued to threaten action against other Latin American countries and even Greenland, an autonomous territory of a U.S. ally. Five Republicans joined all Democrats in support of the measure: Sen. Rand Paul (Ky.), Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), Sen. Susan Collins (Maine), Sen. Todd Young (Ind.), and Sen. Josh Hawley (Mo.).

I'm pretty sure Congress, not just some seething Senators, need to pass a law to nullify the War Powers Act. Until then, then they are useless as usual.

They turned in their abilities to have any say many years ago.

Thay know damned well this is a waste of time like muh epstein files.

The gangof8 no longer circumvent the power of the executive to skate along like Obama and many past Presidents have.
