The Senate on Tuesday voted to block U.S. military action in Iran for the first time as the war approaches its fourth month.

The war powers resolution passed by a vote of 50–48. Sen. John Fetterman, again, was the lone Democrat to vote in the negative.

Pennsylvania Republican Sen. Dave McCormick, who was in his home state for a visit by President Trump to a Mack truck plant in the Lehigh Valley, was absent.

Four Republicans — Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine, Rand Paul of Kentucky and Bill Cassidy of Louisiana — supported the measure.

    Your comment suggests, intentionally judging by your comment history, that “Jewish” is opposed to “American”, and that we should suspect all Jews of putting Israel first. You also posted in a previous comment that you wished a man who attacked a synagogue had been more successful. And you suggested that Jewish entertainers tend to be pedophiles. I hope people can see where you’re coming from. This is real antisemitism.

    And before anyone accuses me of being an Israel supporter, I find Zionism repellent, I abhor Israel’s genocide of Palestinians and its invasion of Lebanon, and I’m in full sympathy with the Palestinian people. Israel is a sick country right now. But a Jew is not the same thing as a Zionist, and many American Jews feel just as I do about these things.

      Israel is the enemy of America. Not people of the Jewish faith.

      I fully understand that. But fettermann is compromised… By Israel
