Senate Democrats will force a vote next week on a war powers resolution directing President Trump to terminate the use of U.S. armed forces for hostilities against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress.
Waiting for Congress to approve anything is like watching grass grow.
They had filed the resolution in December amid concerns that the Trump administration was planning military action in Venezuela, but it failed 49-51.
Senators Schumer and Kaine colluded on this.
“He [Kaine] will bring it up, and I told him I would support it and work to get adequate floor time so we could debate and discuss this,” Schumer said.
War powers are constitutionally divided between the legislative and congressional branches.
The U.S. President can initiate military action but is required to notify Congress within 48 hours, and cannot keep troops deployed for more than 60 days without congressional approval.
There is a War Powers Act which is unconstitutional.
Democrats specialize in that which is unconstitutional. I could list some notable unconstitutional Democrat acts and policies, but why, given that virtually everything they support and attempt to do is against the law.
That is the prime danger of those Communists. They are NOT of, for, nor BY America. They cheat to get elected, then buy off judges and courts, and steal our money. The “Constitution’? They hold it in complete disregard.
