WEB Notes: Rand Paul goes on to say, “Under this bill, Congress could only disapprove of war, turning the Constitution on its head“. Unless they make a change to the Constitution, their new bill is null and void. Why is it so hard for people to understand nothing supersedes the Constitution? Too many years of conditioning I suppose. This all sounds like a good way to push for war with Iran.

In the near future, Congress will debate a new Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF). I use the word “debate” lightly. So far, no hearings have been scheduled, and no testimony is likely to be heard unless something changes. That’s a shame, because this is a serious matter, and this is a deeply flawed AUMF.   Continue reading “Rand Paul: Congress Moves To Give The President Unlimited War Powers”
