🧩 Simple Version
Big grown-ups in the Senate tried to make a rule: President Trump would have to ask them before sending soldiers to Venezuela. But then, some of those grown-ups changed their minds. So, the rule didn't pass, like when a game gets cancelled!
🚨 How Fox Would Spin It
"Can you believe it?! Weak politicians tried to stop our brave President Trump! They want to make America defenseless and let bad guys win! It's a sneaky liberal plot to tie our President's hands!"
🌿 DeFoxed Reality Check
Hold on! Some Senators, even Republicans, just wanted Congress to agree on big military actions. Our country's rulebook says Congress should decide on war, remember?
President Trump had already sent troops to catch Venezuela's leader. He was upset. But then, Senators Josh Hawley and Todd Young talked to President Trump's team. They got a promise: no American troops are currently fighting there, and for any big new missions, Congress would be asked first. That's why they changed their votes!
💡 Why This Matters
This is important because it's about who decides when we go to war. Should it be just one person (the President) or many people (Congress), who represent us all? It's about sharing big grown-up powers fairly!
