👉 The US Senate blocked a Democratic war powers resolution 👉 The resolution would have required the president to seek congressional approval before launching strikes in Venezuela 👉 The Trump administration has ramped up its military campaign against drug cartels and to destabilize the Venezuelan government 👉 The administration has provided a dubious legal justification for the strikes 👉 The US is in a 'non-international armed conflict' with the drug cartels
