Resolution comes after president authorized CIA operations and considered land strikes following drug cartel attacks

A bipartisan group of Senators on Friday took steps to block President Donald Trump from "engag[ing] in hostilities" in Venezuela under a War Powers Resolution following another strike off the coast of the South American nation this week.

The resolution looked to remind Trump that only Congress has the "sole power to declare war" after the president on Wednesday said he was considering land operations and had authorized CIA operations there.
