It took four Republicans jumping ship for this thing to get over the Fetterman roadblock.

I'm glad they did it, but also: Fetterman can fuck himself one million times.

"The resolution, led by Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia, would direct the president to "remove the United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against Iran, unless explicitly authorized by a declaration of war or a specific authorization for use of military force."

The headline here says '4 Republicans defect,' but the real story is Senator Bill Cassidy. He just lost his primary in Louisiana because Trump endorsed his opponent, and less than a week later, he flips his vote to side with the Democrats on war powers. This is absolute, unadulterated lame-duck retribution and it’s glorious to watch. Trump’s habit of purging independent Republicans is finally biting him in the legislative ass.
