Senate Republicans have voted down an effort to halt President Donald Trump’s war against Iran. It demonstrated early GOP support for a conflict that has rapidly spread across the Middle East with no clear U.S. exit strategy.

    Old white zombies stay in their mummified congressional seats until they’re excavated by some miracle.

      Voters are a joke. At least the “I voted for that!” crowd is.

    I wonder if in 60 days when they have to make a formal decision, they just punt and call it ‘not a war.’ I’m sure we’ll have boots on the ground by then, so it’ll be blatantly false but the media will cover for them somehow.

      Everyone will call it a war except the officials, who will call it a ‘special military operation’

      They’ve been doing it for decades now.
