Defiant Dems Block Obama’s Trade Authority | TheBlaze.com:

"Senate Democrats on Tuesday stood up to President Barack Obama and blocked legislation that would give him the power to negotiate trade agreements that cannot be amended by Congress, even as Senate Republicans voted for the measure.

The Senate held a procedural vote on a bill to give Obama that authority, one that needed 60 votes to keep the bill alive. But the Senate couldn’t reach that threshold, and instead held a mostly party-line 52-45 vote."
