A #bipartisan measure to block the #Trump admin’s lethal strikes on alleged #Venezuela drug traffickers fell short in the #Senate last week, a #failure of lawmakers to assert their constitutional role in deciding if & how the #US enters a #war.

#Military ofcls in multiple classified briefings have not definitively identified the victims or explained why the military is using deadly force rather than the long-standing protocol of interdicting vessels at sea, Democratic lawmakers have said.

Trump's troop deployments divide US governors' group

Democratic governors from California and Illinois are threatening to leave the National Governors Association unless it denounces President Donald Trump's troop deployments to states. California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker contend that Trump's deployment of the Guard against a governor's will is a violation of state sovereignty. The bipartisan group, founded in 1908, usually advocates for issues where governors find common ground. However, some Republican governors support Trump's actions, and the group hasn't taken a position on the troop deployments. Democratic governors from Kansas, Michigan, and Minnesota have already left the association this year.
