117 Democrats sided with GOP against Tlaib's Lebanon vote

91 Democrats actually bucked their leadership to support Tlaib's war powers resolution. One Republican, Thomas Massie, joined them. The rest of his party fell in line. This is what happens when war is bipartisan and dissent gets punished. Democratic leadership whipped votes against their own members trying to check executive power on Middle East military action. The party that claims to stand for democracy crushed an attempt at constitutional governance. Massie's the only one who voted his conscience.
