[The Hill] Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, on Friday introduced a resolution to block President Trump from further escalating hostilities with Iran.
The resolution is privileged, which means Republicans cannot block it from reaching the floor, and comes the day after the surprise drone strike that killed Iraninan Gen. Qassem Soleimani, the leader of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’s elite Quds Force.
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has vowed "forceful revenge" against the U.S., and the Pentagon announced Friday that it will send 3,000 additional troops to the Middle East.
Kaine’s resolution requires that any hostilities with Iran must be explicitly authorized by a congressional declaration of war or a specific authorization for the use of military force, though it does not prevent the United States from defending itself from imminent attack, according to a summary of the measure released by his office.

Maybe get him to offer up a resolution to get the last of the Clinton-Kaine signs and bumper stickers taken away...

Make him personally read the entire list of Americans Diplomats held hostage by the Iranians on the Senate floor first. See if he has the stones to do it.

So when they nuke us there will be a law that prevents us from doing anything about it?
Does Kaine want us out of Syria too? Out of Iraq? What happens when ISIS gets out of control again? Does he want us out of ME altogether? What happens when Iran smokes the Soddies again? (We know that Kaine doesn't care if they smoke the Juice.)

When a Paki origin nuke goes off in New York or DC, creatures like Kaine will immediately call for a handicap on the next prexidential erection because 12 million or more reliable dem voters died as a result of dem policies.

[Breitbart] The Russian pranksters famous for tricking House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) into seeking nude pictures of President Donald Trump are claiming that they just got Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) — for a second time.
YouTubers Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexey Stolyarov, who go by the names Vovan and Lexus, recently called Waters’s office and, with the help of a female colleague, pretended to be teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg, TIME‘s “Person of the Year” for 2019, and her father, claiming to have a taped confession from Trump admitting to the exact charges in House Democrats’ articles of impeachment which passed in late December.

Nb Mad Maxine can't tell a heavy Russian accent from a Swedish accent.
Apparently this crew also pranked Maxine's colleague, Schifferbrains, with promises of nude pix of Trump. Didn't know Schifferbrains swung that way....
