    Ex-CIA chief Pompeo says the president has authority launch missile strike without congressional action: "I don't think that has been disputed by Republicans or Democrats throughout an extended period of time." Sen. Paul: "Actually, it's disputed mostly by our Founding Fathers."pic.twitter.com/QSmDZht43I

        No, he has approval under the same continuing resolution that Obama used to strike Syria. I'll send you $100 worth of bitcoin right now if you can produce a tweet where you opposed Obama doing the same thinghttps://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/apr/27/congress-still-not-specifically-authorizing-islami/ …

        Again this is been normal practice for at least the last three presidents, now all the sudden you want to hold president Trump to account? Where was the flailing and wailing when Obama & Bush did the same thing?https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2014/09/10/legal-argument-does-obama-have-the-authority-to-strike-in-syria/?utm_term=.c8eaae092d76 …

        I hate Rand Paul but he's right on this. I'm so sick of Congress passing the buck on their congressional duties. No one wants to be responsible for decisions that are hard. It's getting old.

        He is correct. Those clowns in Congress have given up their constitutional duty way too many times. There is also a little thing called "International Law" that prohibits any attack on a sovereign country that is not posing a threat, but that's not important.

        Just because you can doesn't mean you should. We're not in immediate danger. POTUS should seek Congress and Joint Chief's approval if possible.
