@ZachNagel7 We got screwed really bad by Eric Gregg in '97, but this was the next level.

@puref8th_ @srkntnyldz He DID cause serious consequences. A life lesson his parents didn't have the sense to teach him. Now, thank the leg sweeper, lefty.

Yetişkinlere çekiç sallayarak tehdit eden ukala çocuk, ayağı yerden kesilince arkadan yere yapıştı ve kafasını vurup hüngür hüngür ağlamaya başladı.
Adamın yaptığı aşırıya kaçmak mıydı yoksa yaptıklarının bir karşılığının olduğunu kanıtlayan bir ders mi?

Imagina que has ahorrado durante meses y luego has pedido un préstamo para comprar una motocicleta. Y entonces una completa desconocida le hace esto a tu motocicleta... ¿Cómo reaccionarías?

@DesireeAmerica4 Okay, now tell us about the officers that witnessed it, and all of those that viewed the footage and kept it hidden. I'm sure they're all fired and in prison, right?

Camden County Deputy Christi Newman almost got away with it...until she didn’t!
After she brutalized a handcuffed woman and lied in her report, her department actually named her "Deputy of the Month." They gave her an award while her victim was still healing from a concussion.
The cover-up worked until the victim’s father got his hands on the dashcam footage. He didn't just get mad, he filed a massive lawsuit that exposed the lies.
Once the GBI saw the truth, the "awards" stopped. Newman was fired, indicted on 6 counts, and sent to prison for 5 years.
It took a father’s determination to turn a "Deputy of the Month" into a convicted felon.

@680TheFan @HometeamBleak Now if you can just convince that dude on 680 that does those newsbreak things that Tua's last name is NOT Tongalova.😆
English
Hometeam Brandon Leak set the tone early @HometeamBleak
Asked Tua about his relationship with Michael Penix and if he expects to be the Falcons starting QB ...
Tua: “You don’t choose a team based off if you’re starting… I came here to compete.”

The Constitution gives Congress the sole power to declare war (Article I, Section 8).
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The War Powers Resolution requires the president to notify Congress within 48 hours of introducing U.S. forces into hostilities (or situations where hostilities are imminent) and to terminate such use of force within 60 days UNLESS Congress authorizes it via a declaration of war, specific statutory authorization, or an extension.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
By calling it a "special combat operation" (or similar euphemisms like "limited strikes,".) instead of "war" or even "hostilities", the administration argues that it doesn't constitute "war" and doesn’t merit congressional approval beyond the initial notification.

@StephenKing Such a deep thinker when it comes to non-fiction.
Freedom for Iranian people worth 0. No oil from VE & Iran to Russia, China? 0. Eliminating Iran as threat to EVERYONE (including Americans) in middle E. Worth 0. Eliminating nulear from worlds largest terrorist? Worth 0.

1054 days left in Trump’s term. Plenty of time for him to get up to more tomfuckery. Look what he’s done already! Attacked Minnesota, and now the whole mideast is on fire. Good job, DJT.
English
Spot on—the Constitution requires Congress's permission to start war, not mere notification. Yet presidents keep launching attacks without it.
Why has Congress never seriously enforced this? No funding cuts, no real withdrawal votes, no impeachment threats.
What will it actually take for them to reclaim their authority?
English
The Constitution does not require the president to notify Congress; it requires the president to get permission from Congress.
Department of State@StateDept
REPORTER: Why not notify Congress about this? SECRETARY RUBIO: We did. We notified congressional leadership. We briefed the Gang of Eight twice. We have complied with the law 100%. 🔥🔥

Dear @SecRubio: There is a law. It’s called the frickin Constitution of the United States.

Four U.S. soldiers have tragically fallen in Donald Trump's reckless, chaotic war with Iran.
California salutes the courage and enduring sacrifice of our service members and their loved ones.
But our Commander in Chief? Don't worry, he's focused on what really matters: himself.

Trump: "See that nice drape? When that comes down right now you see a very very deep hole, but in about a year and half you're gonna see a very very beautiful building. And there's your entrance to it right there. In fact, it looks so nice I think I'll leave it and save money on the doors. I picked those drapes. I always liked gold. I believe it will be the most beautiful ballroom anywhere in the world."

@ChrisMurphyCT I was alive and rememeber the humiliation of 1979, and everything after.
Shut the hell up.

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.
If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

@ChrisMurphyCT Hi Chris. Show us where the word "authorization" is written, or even implied.
Are you lying, or just illiterate?
English
You have clearly not read the War Powers Act, Mike. Everything you've written is totally wrong.
The War Powers Act SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITS military action unless: a/ there is a prior congressional authorization; or b/ it's a response to an attack against the U.S..
Mike Lawler@lawler4ny
Since many of my Democrat colleagues don’t seem to understand the War Powers Act, it’s very simple: The President must notify Congress within 48 hours of deploying troops or commencing an attack. The President must then withdraw troops within 60-90 days, unless Congress declares war. In this instance, Congress was notified in advance and briefed before the strike on Iran. A full classified briefing will be forthcoming. Now, Congress can pass a concurrent resolution ordering the troops be withdrawn at anytime, which is what Massie and Khanna are trying to do. But under Article II and as Commander in Chief, the President has the authority to act. The notion that this strike is illegal or that the President needed Congress’ authority is wrong. Furthermore, Biden and Obama conducted numerous strikes in numerous countries without Congress and none of the people screaming now, seemed to have any objections. For historical context, Congress has not declared war since WWII.

@ggreenwald Or maybe you don't understand geopolitical strategy. Here's something to help you get started.

Every major presidential campaign is based on lies and knowingly false promises, but Trump made opposition to regime-change wars a central part of his political identity for a decade. His voters believed it.
He's proven himself one of the most deceitful frauds in US history.👇
The American Conservative@amconmag
Trump on the campaign trail: "We are finally putting America First. Our policy of war regime change and nation-building is being replaced by the pursuit of American interests… It is the job of our military to protect our security, not to be the policemen of the world."

The President of the United States wore a baseball cap to announce a sweeping attack against another nation.
A baseball cap.
Remember the fury at Zelenskyy when he wore a military uniform to the White House?
Yeah. A baseball cap.

@JasmineForUS Why would you purposely show your ignorance like this to everyone?
Ever heard of the War Powers Resolution of '73? It's already law now, and Trump's following it.
English
Why is it that this President refuses to even pretend that he cares about following the law?! I’ve been stomping & telling people that this election is life or death!
CONGRESS, not the PRESIDENT, but CONGRESS has the EXCLUSIVE authority to declare war! Speaker Johnson needs to call us in IMMEDIATELY & it is time for the House & the Senate to pass a war powers resolution!
This is how you prove your love and respect for the constitution. This is how you show your constituents that you are truly patriots! It is time for us, collectively, as Dems and Repubs to stand up to this President. Please call your reps in the house and the senate and urge them to take a vote on a war powers resolution!

@StephenKing Obama:
563 targeted drone strikes (weddings, women & children), 92,030 bombs in 7 countries. No congressional approval.
Too late to impeach him, steve?

Under Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, only Congress has the power to declare war, as well as to raise and support armies, provide and maintain a navy, and fund and regulate the military.
Impeach the SOB.
