Brutal: CNN's Scott Jennings Gets Schooled by Anchor on Super-Basic Governing Fact via @mediaite

@Mediaite BlabberMouth Jennings who won’t let anyone get a word in edgewise gets paid to keep portraying Trump as King of America.

@Mediaite After watching Scott Jennings last night, I firmly believe that he is a racist. He referred to undocumented immigrants the way that Nazis referred to Jews. He is quite adept at BEING racist without SAYING that he has a racist.

This was so spot on! Scott is trying to make Trump sound as though he’s the only decision maker in the room! Scott knows that’s not the way things work in government. He’s just trying to rub Trump’s ego! The President is not the biggest elephant in the room! We have three branches of government for a reason!

🇺🇸 One Nation, under Trump, Stronger THAN EVER. Are you Trump Tough? 💪Tough T's Here:

@Mediaite And here lies the problem with this junk drawer administration. They just want to bypass the law and constitution to violate people.

@Mediaite I can’t watch Scott Jennings be an asshole every single night on CNN ANYMORE He is a pompous ass who thinks his answer to EVERY SINGLE QUESTION is correct..when it’s NOT

@Mediaite Based on current law, the President has the authority to enforce it. It's that simple. If Congress wants to change the law, they need to act.

@Mediaite He’s rambling on lie the fucking president can’t protect us if we are immvaded. We can. But he does not declare war MAGA has been rewriting the constitution with their stupid

@Mediaite This is a perfect example how MAGA (Scott) want to ignore the constitution when it comes to Trump

@Mediaite As we debate whether we are still a democracy, let's wake up: Trump is telling us he's a king, and whatever he says goes. So, what are we going to do about that now?

Congress has the constitutional power to declare war under Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, which grants it authority to “declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water.” The President, as Commander-in-Chief under Article II, Section 2, can direct military actions but lacks the authority to formally declare war. In practice, the lines have blurred. Presidents often initiate military engagements without a formal declaration, relying on their role to respond to immediate threats or through congressional authorizations like the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF). For example, no formal declaration of war has been made since World War II, yet conflicts like Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan proceeded under congressional resolutions or executive action. The War Powers Resolution of 1973 attempts to check presidential power, requiring the President to notify Congress within 48 hours of military action and limiting engagements to 60 days without congressional approval. However, compliance and enforcement remain contentious. In summary, Congress declares war, but the President can initiate military action, often with Congress’s implicit or explicit support. If you want details on specific historical examples or the legal debates around this, let me know.
