Outlets across the spectrum highlight Representative Thomas Massie as the only Republican to vote for the resolution, though they differ in their focus on his motivation. Common Dreams emphasizes Massie's role in a failed progressive effort to curb presidential authority, while Off The Press frames the vote as the GOP "sticking with Trump" against a lone dissenter.
