The US Senate defeated a war powers resolution designed to rein in President Donald Trump's authority to take military action without Congressional approval. Vice President JD Vance cast the tie-breaking vote to defeat the measure. The resolution would have given Congress more oversight and control over Trump's ability to engage in military conflicts. As a result, Trump can still act unilaterally on military matters with less congressional scrutiny.
