So where is that declaration of war that is required by law. cause I still don't see it.
Actually Congress is voting against stopping the illegal war that they never declared in the first place.
they still didn't actually declare war though.
just another thing to use when they are all charged with treason.
Who is getting charged? By whom? When do you think this would happen?
It wasn't illegal, unfortunately. He has the power to do it for 60 days before Congress has to weigh in.
It's illegal.
The War Powers Resolution is a defensive exception to the rule:

He has 34 felonies.
I dont think he cares about the law guys.
The problem isn't that he doesn't care about the law. It's that our justice dept and congress don't either.
They did the bare minimum of just eliminating or replacing those in charge of enforcing it, because they lack so much basic decency they don't even feel the need to feign.
You guys quoting laws and constitution need to wake the fuck up.
And read the war powers act that gives Trump the power to do this.
So it's the Israel's demands.
sounds like the same plan RUSSIA made TRUMP say outloud, verbatim with russian buzzwords too,.
It would be quite hilariously telling if orangeboi starts nattering on about “warm water ports”
I’m pretty sure chatgpt developed this “15 point” plan.
AIUI, it’s mostly the deal that Obama put in place which Trump summarily threw out
I thru 8 are ordering beer and pizza
I have a friend in the national guard who joined before Trump was elected. I’m glad he’s injured.
The autistic person in me who has spent days trying to figure out how to get troops into Iran without insane losses kinda wants to see how this plays out.
But I can't find a "good" way to accomplish the task, so I'm really hoping it doesn't come down to it.
So far the only way I see it being done without extensive US casualties, calls for completely destroying Iran's energy network and waiting for them to capitulate and that will come with enormous loss of civilian lives.
I hope I'm wrong or that we find a diplomatic solution.
There is no good way to do this. They'll take extensive casualties ingressing into the country and soon as they're on the ground they'll be swarmed with Shaheeds. The US is not prepared for drone warfare. It's really as simple as that.
They really really want to use nukes, a parachute regiment in deaths to instigate that is no great loss if they get to push the big red button
I've seen nukes floated a few times as a concern. The concern for Americans, and trump is that the war is in the middle east now and affecting troops and allies there. Should nukes be used, it most certainly will lead to domestic attacks withing America's borders. Rather than be the end of war, like in japan, it's would likely be an escalation.
That either leads to civilian death and injuries as well as a climate of fear, or/and rounding up all the Muslim people (irrespective of country or sect) similar to Japanese camps in the past. So, again, the echoes of WW2 are coming.
Totally
I thought the war was already won with complete decimation of the enemy though.
They're only deploying to confirm that victory. A victory lap. Under heavy fire support of course. Just to confirm that the war is over.
That's probably still more coherent than how they will spin it.
Heels on the ground!
Wow.. Don's even losing weight!
It's AI, but he still walks funny, with the heel lifts ans forward leaning stance. Odd.
Looks like he refuses to bend his knees when walking
Yet every day he bends the knee to Israel
Maybe he's moonwalking.
In can't (actually I can) believe maggots thought that the woman here in mini skirt, tights and stiletto heels was a real army woman in an actual uniform
Most obvious deployment ever.
