Senate Republicans vote down war powers resolution amid Iran conflict

Описание: Senate Republicans on Wednesday voted down an effort to stop President Donald Trump's war against Iran, demonstrating early support for a conflict that has rapidly spread across the Middle East.
The legislation, known as a war powers resolution, failed on a 47-53 vote tally.
It gave lawmakers an opportunity to demand congressional approval before any further attacks are carried out.
The vote fell mostly along party lines, though Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky voted in favor and Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania voted against.
It came soon after Trump said he rates the American performance in the ongoing Iran war as a 15 out of 10.
