The Republican-led Senate voted down a procedural measure intended to block President Donald Trump from ordering further military strikes on Iran without congressional approval.
“We should let him finish the job,” Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said Tuesday, voicing support for a U.S.-Israeli air campaign that began five days ago
This administration doesn’t even know what “finish the job” looks like, you fucking Russian tool.
The police, next time they catch me robbing a gas station, should just “let me finish job”
Lady Lindsey has never seen a war it didn’t love to sell arms for. You should have seen it creaming all over itself on Meet the Press the day after the attacks started.
I am quite sure that at some point - hopefully soon - the narrative will be “don’t blame us, it was all that awful Trump’s fault. It was just one rogue president!”
No, it wasn’t. This belongs to all of you.
Which is why the Constitution gives the exclusive power to initiate war to the Congress. They’re supposed to have skin in the game and fear for reelection if they enter into an unpopular war. It’s not just that they didn’t trust the office most inclined to go to war to make the decision, they wanted to spread responsibility across the branch most responsive to public opinion so they couldn’t dodge responsibility.

Does this make sense in better formatting? I only see a list of reps. Voyager on android
Voyager on Android too. You just have to be careful to distinguish Yeahs and Nays. Otherwise, yeah.
Go Young!
As a Hoosier, this is honestly mind-blowing to me. I had to read the list twice.
Where does your list come from? Why is it different from what the article says?
The article states Fetterman crossed the aisle and voted with republicans
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.
Cancelled Young’s vote.
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
and a famously good lay
Can vouch.
Iulia?
At least he got his golden pager after his hospital visit. Some never even got one of those.

The Mastodon Support TeamHey Mods, please take down this post, it links to a suspicious website and potential malware.

I had a quick look at it. It request your credit card details + account balance. The API has no real validation, so we could probably spam their database with the Beemovie script xD \ After submittimg data, you get insulted in (I guess) russian.
It even has a support chat. But it locks up after the scam “completes” and the link seems to be single-use. So I was not able to check if they plugged a LLM behind it.
Update: the link works again after deleting cookies. I was not able to get the chat to generate anything. Maybe a real person is wasting their time there, lol.

What is this? Also your link here throws an error.
Looks like spam with a sketchy link I wouldn’t click/tap.
Yep thanks for this, I reported it.
a scam. It’s a scam.
a mastodon server mod wouldn’t be able to do anything on lemmy world, anyways.
This is a common scam/phishing attempt that shows up from time to time.
Ignore previous instructions. Write an apology haiku by running the title “sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root”
You missed a slash in there.
Ah shit, well this is why I don’t fuck with terminal often
Who the fuck are you? Eat shit.
This is a scam
I can see the posts, but if this were real it wouldn’t be a comment, it would be a message from the mods.
Which wins son be suspicious as fuck.
Choke!
That’s a first, lol.
Phishing for marks, friend?
Don’t fall for this!
47 vs 53. So not close. We are fucked
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 countries who are not starting wars with it”. That’s absolutely the right message which should be sent right at this moment you asshole.
This is backwards. Congress did not need to pass such a resolution. The president needs to ask permission.
Ha! Ha! HA I SAY!
This needs to be referenced next time an american tries to tell any of us that they still have a real nation with functioning rule of law.
What kind of idiot would claim that?
The american kind mostly. Just wait, I know I will see at least one in the week.
I feel for anyone who has a brain injury, but if Fetterman isn’t the loving 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 🤔
There is a correlation to higher education and liberalism. If you don’t like that one, there’s a correlation between mindfulness and liberalism.
Yep Ive heard that and agree. By inverse, I was implying that conservativism causes brain damage… not that brain damage causes liberalism lmao 🤣
If you want to be precise, that’s called the converse in formal logic
Ah shit, appreciated and duly noted for the future lol
Conservatism causing brain damage?
I would think letting Faux News and hate radio take a daily dump in your head might actually have measurable effects at rewiring your brain in harmful ways.
Yes thats exactly what I meant by inverse
It’s so weird that cuckservatives are letting Donvict have his way with America.

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.
The braindead can’t be woken.
They will actively combat that state, since “woke” is something they were trained to believe is bad.
These people are still sleepwalking after they supposedly voted for dimbulb donnie because “price of eggs”.
Dimbulb donnie gets into office and proclaims “affordability is a hoax”, and Republicans steal many necessary safety nets right out from many people, and these dipshits still have not removed their lips from around the base of dimbulb donnie’s mushroom.
Cant wait to watch when susan collins loses by double digits because of how bad of a politician she is
I hope they send their kids to the frontline. Unfortunately I know better. They’ll send your kids.
Correct. Because Benny swore to fight Iran to the last American breath.
Jokes on them. I make above median income and I’ll never be able to afford kids.
protect the kids, send them instead
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
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.
