President Trump on Friday suggested that the War Powers Act, which requires presidents to seek congressional authorizations for foreign conflicts, is unconstitutional, as the Iran war hit 60 days, a key milestone under the Vietnam War-era law. The U.S. and Israel launched attacks against Iran on Feb 28, but Trump formally notified Congress on March 2 about U.S. military operations against the country — 60 days ago on Friday. Ahead of his departure for a weekend in Florida, Trump was asked whether he would now seek approval from lawmakers. “It’s never been sought before, there’s been numerous, many, many times and nobody’s ever gotten it before, they consider it totally unconstitutional,” Trump told reporters ahead of his departure from the White House. “But we’re always in touch with congress. But, nobody’s ever sought it before, nobody’s ever asked for it before, it’s never been used before. Why should we be different?” It’s unclear who “they” was referring to, but it’s a new argument from the Trump administration.
Can we just all come together and 8647?
86 means remove
Every word that comes out of his mouth is like a turd that falls into your drink.
STOP REPORTING on every demented utterance of this narcissistic sundowning ass-clown. He’d fucking condemn the existence of oxygen if it fit his agenda.
REPORT on the AGENDA.
Signal > Noise
Well, he’s right: it is unconstitutional. Since only Congress is authorized by the Constitution to declare war, the President should get zero days to attack before Congress acts, not 60!
Half of Congress (i.e. Republicans) are so far up his ass they don’t know what day it is.
Such a lovely world where this rapist claims something is unconstitutional without an explanation and no one presses him for one.
Everything I don’t like is
communismunconstitutional!Well that is how they treat the Bible
But why should it matter? 8 weeks ago he said that he only needed 4 week.
“It’s always been a four-week process. We figured it will be four weeks or so. It’s always been about a four-week process, so – as strong as it is, it’s a big country, it’ll take four weeks – or less,”
– Donald Trump (2026-Mar-01)
He failed to mention that it’s a rolling four weeks.
Like Iran’s “two months from a nuke” for the past 30 years.
You gotta wait for it to go through SCOTUS like everyone else, fuckhead. Tired of this crap.
He’s telling them how to make their ruling.
They are his supplicants and we all know it. They will barely buck and mostly only to give the impression that they are independent by rejecting non-important issues while embracing the broader decisions that seize absolute power and overthrow the Republic.
We’re all tired, boss.
The gall of that man to claim to stand for the Constitution, after shitting all over it.
He can’t help but shit on everything
This law simply requires the president to follow what’s already in the Constitution. How is that “unconstitutional”?
