**Outrageous Betrayal: Republican Senators Stand with Democrats Against National Security**

In a shocking display of political betrayal, five Republican senators have aligned themselves with Democrats to advance a war powers resolution aimed at restricting the President’s ability to deploy military force against Venezuela.

Former President Donald Trump took to social media to voice his strong disapproval, stating that these senators “should never be elected to office again.”


The resolution, led by Democratic Senator Tim Kaine and co-sponsored by notorious liberal figures like Chuck Schumer and Adam Schiff, passed a procedural vote in the Senate by a margin of 52-47.

Trump, who remains a powerful voice within the party, emphasized the gravity of this decision, warning that it undermines our national security and the Commander-in-Chief’s constitutional authority.

“Republicans should be ashamed of the Senators that just voted with Democrats in attempting to take away our powers to fight and defend the United States of America,” Trump asserted in a post on Truth Social.

Among the five who sided with the Democrats are well-known names like Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Rand Paul, Josh Hawley, and Todd Young.

While Collins and Murkowski have often found themselves at odds with core Republican values, the defection of Rand Paul and Josh Hawley, both known for their supposed commitment to conservative principles, raises serious questions about their allegiance to the party.

Hawley’s justification for supporting the resolution, claiming that future military engagements should require Congressional approval, echoes the sentiments of a long-discredited leftist narrative that seeks to curtail the President’s power.

It is precisely this kind of political maneuvering that prompts skepticism about the integrity of certain lawmakers' commitments to protecting American interests.

VP JD Vance weighed in on the issue, reaffirming that both Republican and Democrat presidents view the War Powers Act as unconstitutional, a notion any serious student of the Constitution would agree with. The War Powers Act, enacted in 1973, has been deeply controversial and widely criticized as an overreach of Congressional authority.

Trump’s condemnation of these senators sends a clear message: siding with Democrats on national security issues not only weakens our global standing but also jeopardizes the safety of American citizens.

As we approach the next significant Senate vote on military engagement, voters should take heed of who stands with our national interests and who aligns with those seeking to impose limitations on our ability to defend ourselves.

America deserves leaders who will prioritize security over political gamesmanship, and it’s time to hold those who stray from that mission accountable.
