Don’t worry everyone, the democrats will do absolutely nothing to stop them. They are complicit in all of this.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

They can’t even do anything. Everything in Federal is one sided until Midterms.. unless Donald gets rid of that too.

He should, for a change, read and try to understand the Constitution he has sworn to uphold. Or, if he is to stupid for that, have someone slowly explain it to him.
It can't be "unconstitutional" when it is right in the Constitution.

Trump cock sucker sucks more of Trump's cock. Fucking cool man. Dems remain nonexistent. I used to think the 'we need a do over' crowd was a bit dramatic but more every day I'm finding it a hard point to argue. These fucking ignorant narcissists just soiling and eroding what our country stands for and the fact that none of our elected officials are doing anything infuriates the shit out of me. Yes I do see the benefit in Judicial actually standing up to a lot of this and celebrate their efforts, but it sdoing nothing to stop them from trying over and over and over.
Imagine being so cucked that you give away your already incredibly narrow and ever shrinking powers. What a fucking buffoon.
"I don't want to have to take a position on record about my support for disastrous forever wars."
Well, the War Powers Act is unconstitutional - but in the other direction. Deploying military force requires a declaration of war, which requires congressional approval, but the War Powers Act circumvents that by pretending that using euphemisms to describe military actions instead of calling it war makes it different, somehow.
So like a special military operation
Exactly.

Mike johnson sounds like he’s glazing
How the hell can these people call themselves conservative. What kind of conservative calls for greater executive power?
Conservative means "There must be in-groups for the law to protect but not bind, and out-groups for the law to bind but not protect." That's it. They are childish assholes that only care about power for their group, and keeping other people out of power. They are the worst sort of people.

They're regressive and refuse to admit it.
They're royalists but don't want to face reality, they want a king but saying that is about the least American thing you could possibly do.
scrolls lemmy
reads headline and moves on
A few posts down and scrolls up realizing it was posted to politics not theOnion
And I want Mike Johnson's balls removed with a falling brick. Pretty please?
He does not use them - it would be a waste of time. Like removing the tires off a PT Cruiser.
If Mike Johnson wants war, he should be first in line for registration and selective service. He should not be aiding and abetting propaganda outlets to dupe the youth into dying for that "apartheid state" again.
I don’t trust DOOFUS with the cognition to spell his own name, why the hell would I want to give him power to declare war?
No thank you, I am not privy to a war with Canada nor Denmark.
The constitution explicitly says what to do with this motherfucker. Stop being such pussies and do it.
So when are the people going to remove them both?
Mike Johnson wants a king.
Do these people understand that once they give away these powers the next person who wrestles away power from trump may see them as an enemy? With the constitutional power to disappear homegrown terrorists nobody is safe.
Maybe they don't expect that to be a possibility...
What are the democrats gonna do to them? They've got nothing to be afraid of, look what happened to Bush.
I see them as an enemy right now.
The gaggle of idiots believe they're the thing that goes bump in the night.
But they'll be rich for a moment and get to look down on the poor!
Your gonna be back in Wisconsin soon bitch. We'll see if you survive the summer
"Many respected constitutional experts argue that the War Powers Act is itself unconstitutional. I'm persuaded by that argument."
I don't think he was persuaded by the argument, I think he was hoping such an argument existed. Anything for daddy Trump.
Journalists should have immediately asked him "which expert first won him over with their argument, and which of their arguments was most compelling". Make him squirm.
Everybody's saying it. And even if they weren't, I believed it before they said it!
Our Constitution is unconstitutional!
By denying the Constitution of the United States in violation of his Oath of Office, House Speaker Mike Johnson is unironically committing treason right now.

It's more or less toilet paper now.
Its like they believe "constitutional" means "the way I want it"
They believe "constitutional" means that thing they do on the toilet each morning.
Why wouldn't it, they do that with everything else. Ask a conservative if they hate something and they say they don't hate because it's a sin. Ask them to describe how they feel, and they describe hate.
Good job giving away your own powers dickhead.
At least dicks can get hard. This fucker has as much spine as a bowl of spaghetti.
