🇺🇸 BREAKING!!! SENATE PASSES WAR POWERS RESOLUTION
The U.S. Senate has passed a War Powers Resolution 50-48, directing President Trump to remove military forces from hostilities with Iran unless Congress declares war or authorizes military force.
Four Republicans, Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Rand Paul of Kentucky, joined nearly all Senate Democrats in support. One Democrat, Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, opposed.
This is a concurrent resolution, which doesn’t carry the force of law and doesn’t require the president’s signature, meaning it is largely symbolic.
The resolution directs the president to “remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran,” unless Congress declares war or authorizes the use of military force.

Obviously this isn’t going to pass due to Trump’s veto, but the illusion of a democratic process trudges onward.
