Senate Republicans Block War Powers Limits as Mideast Crisis Widens

The measure would have restricted President Trump’s power to wage war against Iran without congressional authorization. U.S. officials said airstrikes were accelerating, and several nations sent reinforcements to the Middle East to protect their interests.

Giving a delusional old man with dictator ambitions unlimited power... thanks you worthless Republicans and SCOTUS.
