It's a compromise recognizing that,more often than not, requiring authorization from both houses of congress before initiating military action would be infeasible,given the exigencies of the situation. Flip side of the compromise is the limit on the duration of the action absent congress' authority

Plenty of other Iranians have undoubtedly been killed. Military and civilians alike

That would only inflict more pain

US will steam away when it runs out of military/govt targets. IRCG can easily retain hold on what's left, lick its wounds, and keep on keeping on. Alternatively, it becomes Syria for a couple decades, with at least a couple anti-Western factions and a weak, nominally pro-democracy faction group

This all sounds like it would have fallen well inside Anthropic's "red lines" anyway

"the majority of military left in the Armed Forces as of right now vocally and openly protested vaccination and gay and transgender soldiers" is quite a statement. Is there survey data supporting this? Service members generally don't "vocally and openly" express opposition to DOD policy

The CJOS arranged a leak of his disagreement with taking this step

Was he wearing a mask? That would seal the deal

Adapted from Elmore Leonard's "Rum Punch". With that to start dialog-driven masterpiece to work from, Tarantino crafted his least Tarantinoesque movie, and that wasn't a bad thing

Hopefully Jennings was the test balloon for that BS and it won't go any farther

Here is a comprehensive list of countries that have bombed other countries into regime change with no ground forces:

At least the Japanese gave their final ultimatum before their attack. Here, the U.S. delegation was suggesting that negotiations were making progress, which is even more duplicitous

Not including lower court rulings, most recently on February 20,2026 when SCOTUS confirmed he had exceeded his authority with his tariff regime. There have been countless lower court rulings over the past 13 months where his unauthorized actions have been stopped in their tracks.

Maybe the Marketplace takes care of this. 3 RW outlets (Fox,CBS, CNN) cannibalize each other for the pool of RW viewers, ad revenue stalls, and the $ people realize they need to backtrack and reach out to a larger audience. $ beats ideology every time. Weiss will be out long before bc she is hapless

Poster have their hair on fire about this proposed EO. If it happens, the lower courts will shut it down instantly and SCOTUS won't touch it

Still, it aggravates him, so there’s that. It may even shorten his life

The states have had pretty good success shutting this stuff down in court

Well stated. Much of the original J6 indictment against Trump would have survived the immunity ruling because the President has no role in elections. More importantly, immunity from criminal prosecution doesn't mean the courts can't enjoin Trump when he exceeds his constitutional authority

Tha tariff stumble was supposed to have been based on a statute which did not, in fact, grant those powers.

So the President has the power to β€œunlock” powers that he doesn’t otherwise have? Where in Article II does this bit of sorcery reside?
