A bill will come up in the Senate tomorrow night, authored by the horrible Tim Kaine from Virginia, which seeks to restrict President Trump’s war power authority after the Iran bombings last weekend.

Via Newsweek:

Senator Tim Kaine, a Virginia Democrat, says that Republican lawmakers in his chamber have expressed support in voting for a War Powers Resolution following President Donald Trump’s authorization to strike three Iranian nuclear facilities on Saturday.

The War Powers Resolution of 1973 was enacted to limit the president’s ability to commit U.S. armed forces to hostilities abroad without congressional consent.

Kaine told Punchbowl News on Monday that he is privy to Senate GOP support of his resolution, saying that lawmakers have expressed interest in signing off on whether Congress and not just the president should have a say to attack other nations.

“I know I will have Republican support. How much is unclear,” Kaine said. “The day-to-day events will affect this…This is a very evolving situation.”

A vote that requires a simple majority for passage is expected to happen before the chamber’s July 4 recess, the senator added.

“It’s unconstitutional for a president to initiate a war like this without Congress,” Kaine said on Sunday. “Every member of Congress needs to vote on this.”

What a damn dufus. There is no war. There wasn’t going to be a war. It was a single strike that led to a ceasefire. Good grief.

While Kaine may claim to have one or two Republicans on his side – and let me make a guess that Rand Paul is one of them – he doesn’t have every single Democrat. In fact, John Fetterman has just said he is voting against the bill:

Kudos to Fetterman. That’s the right thing to do.
