Senate Democrats hunker down ahead of war powers confrontation

Description:

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) is holding off on scheduling a vote on his war powers resolution until after a classified briefing Tuesday on President Trump’s recent strikes against Iran’s nuclear facilities. The resolution, which could come to a vote as early as Wednesday, would let Democrats formally challenge Trump’s actions—putting pro-Israel Democrats in a tough spot between supporting their base or long-held policy views. Critics, including some Republicans, argue Trump bypassed Congress and violated constitutional norms, Axios has reported. The strikes, followed by a surprise Iran-Israel ceasefire, were conducted without briefing top Democratic lawmakers, further escalating tensions. read more: 👍 Like this video to raise awareness about the constitutional debate over military strikes and congressional authority. 💬 Comment below—should presidents be required to get congressional approval for strikes like these? 🔗 Share this video to help others understand the legal and political stakes behind the Iran strike controversy. 💰 Want to support the channel?
