War Powers Act – part two

Yes, Rep. Lawler’s post is largely accurate on the War Powers Resolution: President must notify Congress within 48 hours of hostilities, forces terminate after 60 days (+30 extension) unless Congress authorizes via declaration of war or statute (AUMF). Presidents have broad Article II authority for limited actions like strikes; Congress can force withdrawal via resolution anytime.

 

Korea: Truman called it a UN “police action” (no declaration); Congress funded it.

Vietnam: 1964 Gulf of Tonkin Resolution gave statutory authorization (broad enough for escalation).

War on Terror: 2001 AUMF (statutory) authorized force against 9/11 perpetrators and associates—used for 20+ years as Congress didn’t revoke it.

 

Formal declarations ended after WWII; statutes/AUMFs became the norm instead, with politics preventing strict 60-day enforcement.

 

This conga line of feckless and leftwing Democrats on TV is grotesque.  They are literally angry that our country is engaged in a righteous battle to eliminate a terrorist regime that is developing nukes, slaughtering tens of thousands, has murdered and maimed thousands of our fellow Americans, and is funding and spreading terrorism throughout the world.

 

Now, what did they do about this regime?  Funded it.  Appeased it. And left it to President Trump to deal with the disastrous mess they created and left him.  They had no rational or effect strategy or plan to address it.

 

The Democrat Party does, in fact, hate America.  Even now, at a time like this, they seek to sabotage us.

 

Also, a number of the usual American-hating Islamist media clowns are in full propaganda mode, trashing our president and our country.  It is time to deport as many of them as is legally allowable and to attempt to denaturalize some of the others and remove them.  When you read what they say and believe you have to wonder how an immigration system that is supposed to work to benefit our country, and is supposed to only allow in foreigners who have allegiance to our country, it is clear these individuals ought not be here.  This is not about the 1st amendment or any civil liberties.  It is about their presence in our country in violation of basic immigration-law requirements.

War Powers Act – part one

War Powers Act
Rep Mike Lawler

Since many of my Democrat colleagues don’t seem to understand the War Powers Act, it’s very simple:

The President must notify Congress within 48 hours of deploying troops or commencing an attack. The President must then withdraw troops within 60-90 days, unless Congress declares war.

In this instance, Congress was notified in advance and briefed before the strike on Iran. A full classified briefing will be forthcoming.

Now, Congress can pass a concurrent resolution ordering the troops be withdrawn at anytime, which is what Massie and Khanna are trying to do.

But under Article II and as Commander in Chief, the President has the authority to act. The notion that this strike is illegal or that the President needed Congress’ authority is wrong. .

Furthermore, Biden and Obama conducted numerous strikes in numerous countries without Congress and none of the people screaming now, seemed to have any objections.

For historical context, Congress has not declared war since WWII. – Mike Lawler @Lawler4ny
