“For everyone saying the Limited Military Operation in Iran is ‘Unconstitutional,’ we agree. The problem is the 1973 War Powers Act. It was designed to curb Nixon’s ‘Imperial Presidency.’ (Look it up.) That act of Congress allows an Executive to (a) commit troops/military action without either (i) a Declaration of War from Congress, or (b) any other sort of ‘Authority’ from Congress; (b) provided the President informs Congress within 48 hours of taking the action, and (b) provided the actions are limited to 60 days without Congressional approval. (Up to 90 days if American troops need more time to ensure their own (relative) safety.) TPOL submits that the War Powers Act is itself unconstitutional: it wrongly transfers powers from Congress to the Executive Branch.” (03/05/26)
