Democrat plot fails to limit Trump’s Cuba war powers

Yesterday, Republicans in the Senate blocked Democrats’ attempt to limit the president’s ability to take military action against Communist Cuba. A resolution by Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Virginia) would have forced the removal of U.S. forces near Cuba and would have required Congress to approve any blockade. A few Republicans joined Kaine and the Democrats, but Republicans stopped the bill from going to a full vote. The controversy over Cuba reflects both the grave divisions within the U.S. government and the threat that Cuba poses. Bible prophecy indicates that Cuba will form a close alliance with Catholic Europe, so President Trump’s actions could prompt Communist Cuba to move away from China and Russia.
