Only 99 people in the Senate now?
Even the Democrats voted for it!!!!
This has to be a show vote, if even Fauxahantas is voting for it. Actually (re)impose the sanctions, and the left will start screaming as usual.
Let me guess Rubio was not available to vote.... to busy not being president.
Did someone abstain or vote against? Any idea who it was?
Obama to vetoe?
Bernie Sanders is the Senator that abstained.
FUBO!
This sounds like one of those “show votes” that aren’t binding law.
How do you veto 99-0?
Obama will let it become law without his signature.
Its veto-proof.
This is a Bill that will go to Obama' desk for signature. If he vetoes, it looks like enough in both Houses of Congress to override. That's why Josh Ernest was skirting around the issue and questions.
Besides Obamacare, this was the biggest folly of the Obama Administration. Nobody liked the deal. After looking at the specifics, I believe it was within the power of the Executive Branch to negotiate the release Iranian funds. It didn't need a treaty. And of course, we got screwed by Iran as they are building more WMD's.
Of course, the RINO's didn't have the cojones to cut funding elsewhere just to make a point,
Saw a recent "What On Earth" episode that showed satellite views of a growing Iranian underground complex into a mountain. A child would know that you don't build hidden places if you don't have something to hide. What is with this obambi MOFU?
I know he's a closet muslim, but does he not understand that once out of office he won't have the super secure facility underground to hide in? What? He thinks his Islamic brothers are going to take care to not nuke him and family?
I'm counting the days when realistic adults are back in charge and not some pissant marxist muslim who doesn't understand the perils of the real world. I will never forgive that bastard for bowing to foreign potentates. The American President Does Not Bow To Anyone. The Founding Fathers would not bow to King George and that is what started the greatest Nation this world has seen and copied many times over
It took Obama 8 years to screw us good, so it’ll take about 2 years to unscrew us.
Where is VJ?
Her dreams of the new Persian Empire are vanishing.
My reaction too :)
I can’t wait until Prez-elect Trump sends the Paris Climate Pact to the Senate for ratification.
I hope he doesn’t send it and just tears it up.
The treaty clause separates the power to enter Agreements with other nations. Consent is where the real power is - with the Senate. McConnell appointed Corker to lead the effort that eliminated the supermajority vote required to make the deal constitutional. Further, it’s not up to the President to determine what is, or what’s not a treaty. The Senate makes that call.
Trump said this is the worst deal ever, believe me.
I agree with The Donald.
