WASHINGTON — The Senate fired a warning shot at President Donald Trump, voting Thursday to advance a bipartisan resolution to block him from using military force “within or against Venezuela” unless he gets prior approval from Congress.
The vote of 52-47 on the war powers measure came after an unsuccessful plea by Republican leaders to sink it and preserve Trump’s authority, as he threatens a “second wave” of attacks on Venezuela. Trump has declared that the U.S. would “run” the country temporarily after he ordered a military operation last week to capture and extradite leader Nicolás Maduro.
Five Republicans joined all 47 Democrats in voting yes on the motion to advance the resolution to the Senate floor.

Was one defector a short, curly haired freak from Kentucky?
Cuba is happy to see this.
Not veto-proof
Well, that what a Presidential veto is for. They lack the votes to overcome the veto.
Unconstitutional. But Rand likes it, eh?
Another way to get banned: cheerleading this sh*t on
I thought you promised to stop your obsession with Paul. And yet here you are posting another report on how he is siding with the Dems.
Did I not tell you how you are known as TrollFan?
Trump: “Hey all you Republicans in the Senate, would you like to vote in favor of any of my policies? We have the majority — we could do some great stuff.”
Senate GOP: “No thanks. Not interested.”
Trump: “Hey all you Republicans in the Senate, would you like to stab me in the back?”
Senate GOP: “We would love to. Mid-term elections are coming up, and we are eager to lose.”
“Cuba is happy to see this.”
Nothing to make Cuba happy.
I didn’t cheerlead just reporting news
The GOP needs to cull the RAT Infiltrators from the herd. Too many evil DemonRATS posing as “republicans”.
They can’t restrict POTUS Constitutuional powers.
Commander in Chief.
Not Pissant Beyotch in Chief.
Rand is not mentioned in the excerpt ?
Good summary—with friends like Senate Republicans who needs enemies.
Political Onanism at its best............
The legislation, led by Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., was co-sponsored by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
Is Tim Kaine homosexual?
Along with Democrats and Paul, the Republicans who voted for the measure were Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Todd Young of Indiana and Josh Hawley of Missouri.
How much cocaine do these Senators snort?
Not accusing.
Just asking.
Bannon had Rand on his show today and never asked.
Here. Let me do it for you.
FTA...
God, your obsession with Paul is sickening. Do you really want another zot???
Thanks will check that out
