We Ultimately Lose When We Ignore The Rules The Steady State | by James Petrila and Annie Pforzheimer

One possible path to extricate America from this tragic military misadventure is (1) for the Administration to turn down the temperature by stopping the sophomoric propaganda chest beating & (2) defer to a new Congressional War Powers Resolution to stop to America's offensive operations in this war.

The Rise and Fall of Congressional Oversight The Steady State | by Greg Rushford

Oh, for the return to the days where both political parties could disagree over policy, yet join together in steadfast understanding of Congress' solemn Constitutional duty to provide firm, consistent, transparent oversight of the Executive Branch. Our Founding Fathers are spinning in their graves.

The Evolution of War Powers: Congress, Presidents and Military Action The Steady State | By Thomas E. McNamara

A great case for Congressional action, yet moral imperative means precious little any longer on Earth One. Government action bought by the highest bidder trumps the public interest every time these days. Makes the Nixon era corruption seem quaint by comparison.

Epic Fury: Our Own-But-Not-The-First “Pearl Harbor”: Will We Never Learn? The Steady State | by Charles A. Ray

Operation Sucker Punch would be a more apt moniker for Epic Fury, a poster child for America's decline from moral authority to internat'l playground bully. Donnie & Bibi's war making now threatens to engulf the world. Meanwhile, our GOP-controlled Congress is AWOL.

Dear friends, We also have to fight with all our might against the neo-Nazis. Fascism has never been eradicated...with the fall of the Wall, it rose again like a phoenix from the ashes. Btw...Musk would already be imprisoned here for showing the Hitler-Salute repeatedly. ~ Dorothea Triebel, Berlin
