For those who want to start talking about the 'Pirate king', go ahead, but you should understand that maritime law allows this. (You can't fake a country's flag on a vessel and it's against all sorts of maritime laws to lie about/obfuscate your destination and routes).

Interdicting an enemy's commerce, in time of war, is perfectly fine....in time of war. A Congress that declines to explicitly tell the POTUS to stop his war, is not exactly a ringing endorsement of that war.

US lawmakers reject measure to block Trump from striking Iran

BBC: US House rejects war powers resolution aimed at limiting Iran War

Of course, Trump the Great and Powerful WILL take that as a license to make war on anyone, anywhere, at his whim.

Notice oil futures are up 4%+ today. Would not put it past Trump the Conqueror to have arranged the "cease fire", and chatter about negotiations, and the war ending "soon", to deescalate the situation in Congress, until the war powers measure is voted down. Then resume the war. Typical "JC" move: promise anything, to get what you want. The moment you get what you want, all the promises made are immediately forgotten.
