Senate Democrats have been trying to act as a check on this wanna-be dictator by forcing votes on our War Powers Resolutions that would stop the fighting,” Duckworth argued.

VERDICT · TRUE
The statement describes Senate Democrats' actions (forcing votes on War Powers Resolutions) and Duckworth's characterization of their intent (to act as a check and stop fighting). While the characterization of intent is subjective, the core factual claim that Senate Democrats have been forcing votes on War Powers Resolutions is verifiable. Given the context and typical Democratic opposition to certain military actions under Republican administrations, this is likely accurate, though the 'wanna-be dictator' label is rhetorical rather than factual.

VERDICT · TRUE
Senate Democrats have repeatedly introduced and forced votes on War Powers Resolutions aimed at ending U.S. military involvement in conflicts such as Yemen and Syria, which aligns with the claim about using such resolutions to stop fighting. The "wanna-be dictator" characterization is an opinion, but the factual core about the War Powers votes is accurate.

VERDICT · FALSE
While Senate Democrats have introduced War Powers Resolution proposals, there is no evidence they have been "forcing" votes to stop fighting; the statement mischaracterizes their actions.
