Perhaps most unnerving is how Americans seems paralyzed, in thrall of their leader: a psychopath flailing about at the top of a political dung heap. It has been a long time coming. And here we are. An exponential crime spree.
Glad we agree on SOMETHING, Barb (other than music)! In any case, this isn’t the first time congress hasn’t approved a wartime move. The last one was Trump’s air attack on Iran. And I believe several of Obama’s wars received no sanction, either. This is something that crosses party lines. You can get a way with anything when you say “national security”!
Prior to this open gangsterism 70% or so Americans were against it. Now it’s the requirement of those 70% to hit the streets ( or storm the White House - or what’s left of it, with pitchforks and torches). This act implicitly validates anything Putin or Israel ever did, ( for America it’s just more of same) and the message to China now is “Taiwan is now yours for the taking”

I totally agree with you Geoff.
How can Trump do these things without approval from Congress? I hope his days are numbered bur that is wishful thinking!
