This is backwards. Congress did not need to pass such a resolution. The president needs to ask permission.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Cant wait to watch when susan collins loses by double digits because of how bad of a politician she is
I feel for anyone who has a brain injury, but if Fetterman isn’t the living example of brain damage leading to conservatism, nothing is.
Or a fake Democrat from the start
brain damage leading to conservatism
Always wondered if the inverse is true as well 🤔
cutting off the President’s authority mid-campaign would send the wrong message
Hey Fetterman, the message we want to send is "Don't fucking start wars in random non-aggressive countries on behalf of Israel". That's absolutely the right message which should be sent right at this moment you asshole.
Fetterman is the modern day Brutus to the DNC, the quintessential "backstabber" that keeps on stabbing.
I mean, his vote wasn't gonna change shit, but it sure says something when he's the singular Dem breaking ranks. What a fucking tool.
Fetterman is the modern day Brutus
Brutus stabbed Ceaser in the back. And our American Ceaser seems about as safe from Fetterman as anyone.
Brutus was also an elegant public speaker and a famously good lay
America is absolutely beyond fucked at the point. From super whore noem with her fuck jet 3000, to America starting a war not needed because MAGA Mike doesn’t want his Grindr account exposed, or mainstream media blocking any downtrodden reports on Israel, to trump distracting from raping boys and girls with his best pal Epstein.
But it’s ok because the commander who rapes is willing to murder soldiers for a noble and just cause that will cause even more chaos for Americans once this breathing piece of flesh rot is gone and forgotten.
You think the Middle East hates you now, just wait. It’ll get worse.
But hey, anything to protect your cuck overlord Israel who you willingly bend over and do their bidding since those filthy fucks own your country and your souls.
Now bow down goyim and die for Bibi and friends.
This, THIS ⬆️ needs to be bottled and sold to the MAGAverse, are they waking up yet? Trump sold the lies along with the Dems admitting their ties, this is Israel first.
I assumed this would happen or they would have taken less than nearly a week to do it.
If they cared they’d have rushed this vote on Saturday or Sunday. They don’t. They never have, never will.
I hope they send their kids to the frontline. Unfortunately I know better. They'll send your kids.
Jokes on them. I make above median income and I'll never be able to afford kids.
protect the kids, send them instead
Correct. Because Benny swore to fight Iran to the last American breath.
BAWK! Buck-buck-buck!
Contact your senators and tell them in no uncertain terms your informed opinion of their actions. "47-53 vote mostly along party lines " All Dems minus Fetterman DINO, plus Rand Paul = 47
