The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday passed a bipartisan resolution rebuking President Donald Trump for withdrawing American forces from Syria. Trump’s decision cleared the way for Turkey’s military assault on the Kurds, formerly allies of America, and handed leverage in the region to Vladimir Putin. Turkish forces have been accused of conducting roadside executions and killing at least 50 civilians, including children. When asked of their plight Wednesday, Trump dismissed the Kurds, saying “they’re not angels.” Democrats said Trump later had a “meltdown” during a meeting on the topic. —David E. Rovella
