“The Senate blocked an effort Friday to prevent President Trump from taking future military action against Iran without authorization from Congress, less than a week after he directed strikes aimed at the country’s nuclear capabilities. Senators voted 47-53 largely along party lines against the war powers resolution. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) was the lone GOP lawmaker to vote with Democrats. Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), an ardent backer of Israel, voted with Republicans. Fifty-one votes were needed for it to pass.” [editor’s note: The previous attack, and any future attacks, are illegal without a congressional declaration of war. The success or failure of the “war powers” resolution doesn’t change that – TLK] (06/27/25)
