Any war powers resolution passed by the Senate would need to be approved by the House and signed by Trump to have the force of law.

The president is expected to veto any resolution to restrict his power as commander in chief and there are not enough votes in either chamber to override such an action.

While they should be doing anything they can to stop this shit, this whole vote is purely symbolic. Unless they can get support from the house and a supermajority in the senate, no standalone bill will do anything.

The only real leverage they have is a potential government shut down at the end of the month. Given how unpopular a repeat of Iraq and Afghanistan would be, I want to say that it should be fairly easy to find bipartisan support for a deal that would pull any forces out of Venezuala and potentially put some road blocks in place to dissuade further military interventions. You’d just need some competent leadership and a little bit of backbone.

I would have been way more excited for a Cursed Halo remake. Think of the nonsense they could unleash when actually building the game from scratch for it.

When I looked at it I just had the uncontrollable urge to play Tetris.

One of the wonderful little details from B5 was the holographic recording Londo made for [REDACTED] where he’s making his grand speech about how and why he’s having him [REDACTED]. The recording is constantly looking in the wrong direction, pointing accusingly at the wall, moving through people, and just obviously not lining up with the room it’s being played in because it’s just a recording.

Then the gospel choir kicks in and the episode officially becomes my all time favorite.
