US Senate Blocks Resolution to Limit Trump's Venezuela War Powers After GOP Senators Flip

The US Senate narrowly rejected a war powers resolution aimed at limiting President Donald Trump's authority to conduct further military actions in Venezuela. Two Republican senators, Josh Hawley and Todd Young, reversed their support after intense pressure from Trump, leading to a 50-50 tie broken by Vice President JD Vance. The vote highlighted divisions within the Republican Party and ongoing concerns in Congress over the legal basis and scope of Trump's foreign policy following the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro.
