Rep. Massie Debates Iran War Powers Resolution

Who is ignoring reality?

Those that dismiss tribalism as being a real thing are “ignoring reality”.

You don't seem to understand the importance of independence. In fact, you are demeaning the very thing that sets us apart from a dictatorship.
 
The "War Powers Act of 1973," is unconstitutional. But Trump still hasn't met the requirements. And neither have the other recent presidents since 1973.


War Powers Resolution (50 U.S.C. § 1541(c)), which was enacted in 1973 to limit the President's ability to commit U.S. forces to hostilities without congressional involvement. Specifically:
  1. Declaration of war by Congress: This is the formal constitutional mechanism under Article I, Section 8, where Congress explicitly declares war.
  2. Specific statutory authorization: This could include laws like an Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), such as those passed after 9/11 for actions against al-Qaeda and associated forces, or for the Iraq War.
  3. National emergency from an attack: This covers defensive responses to direct attacks on the United States, its territories, possessions, or armed forces—essentially allowing the President to act unilaterally in immediate self-defense without prior approval.

Under the U.S. Constitution, Congress holds the sole power to formally declare war and fund military action, while the President, as Commander in Chief, commands the armed forces. While presidents often initiate military operations without prior authorization, legal consensus holds that congressional approval is required for sustained, official war, a power balanced by the 1973 War Powers Resolution.
While only Congress can officially declare war, presidents have frequently used military force without explicit authorization, citing their authority to protect national interests.

The WPA is unconstitutional in itself.
 
War powers are very specific in the US constitution. But our politicians now days, on both sides, don't seem to care about the constitution. Or the things that are supposed to keep us a Constitutional Republic instead of a democracy or anything else.

Here, Massie lines out the president constitutional authority to wage war. And congress's responsibility to give the president authorization.

There are 3 constitutional conditions in the 1973 war powers act that must me met. And so far, none have been met. And yet Trump (and other presidents) have been allowed to wage war just because they want to.

Trump doesn't like the idea of the USA being Constitutional Republic anymore than the democrats did.

There's some very important information in Massie's speech, pertaining to the constitution.


I'll bite. What does your loon Massie tell you are the three constitutional conditions that have not been met?

it seems you can't articulate what hasn't been done. So tell us.
 
how?

you know there is no other amendment in the constitution, you know this right?
Congress has no authority to delegate away its legislative powers. Which is what the WPA does. Thats what AUMFs do.
The constitution is quite clear. Only congress has the ability to declare war.
 
Has that asshole released any names for the Epstein victims yet? You know, the guy parading in front of the press saying how tough he was? Has he?
Nope. There was a huge Epstein drop about 4 days ago, though.
I guess Bondi did that.
Also, proof of him being bribed has been discovered.

He sure did release some. A couple of them have resigned from their positions in companies and boards.
Thanks to him and Ro Khana.

Good grief. You people will argue FOR Trump, no matter what he does.

I stopped reading at REP. A bit player from Paducah. A plant. A Jeff Flake DEM pulled the wool over drunken or smoke filled KY workers. That's all this is.

Middlers they own it. Never forgive or trust a phony do-nothing Middle-Stain.
