The Senate will vote next week on a bipartisan war powers resolution to block Trump from continuing military against Venezuela — a vote that takes on heightened importance after U.S. forces attacked the South American nation and arrested President Nicolás Maduro early Saturday.
The resolution to block the administration from engaging in further hostilities against Venezuela is privileged, which means Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) cannot stop it from coming to the floor.
The measure is sponsored by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.).
ah yes, we can finally use that time machine tax-payers will have been paying for and undo this action.

it is very explicitly to prevent further bullshit not gloss over what has already been done.
They should block trump from invading Mexico, Cuba, Greenland and Canada before he gets a chance.
Don’t forget Brussels. Trump threatened there, too.
Thank you, I am aware. Just poking fun at the wording of the headline.
