The President needs authorization from Congress to engage in these warlike actions. This is either a violation of the law of war or it’s murder. Trump is not prioritizing what Americans want.

AOC: President Trump—I want to be clear—not only threatened genocide, he is continuing to threaten genocide against the Iranian people. That is his main point of “leverage” in this situation. It is a war crime. It is abhorrent, and it is also illegal. Our presence right now is a crime. I personally believe it’s impeachable. But putting all of that aside, it’s a crime. No president is authorized by the Constitution of the United States to go to war without the authorization of Congress. Period. And acting on any of these threats would also be a crime.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Q: Is there any point you think Congress will need to give congressional authorization? MIKE JOHNSON: My understanding of the law is that the president is acting well within his authority. It's not a declaration of war. It's not required because it's defensive in design.

“The presumption cannot be on the opponents of war to bring a war powers resolution that says the president has to stop,” says Senator Chris Murphy 🟧. “No, the presumption is on the proponents of war not to start a war unless they have a proactive authorization from Congress.”

There was no imminent threat to the homeland and no authorization from Congress. The president is on the wrong side of the War Powers Act.

Tomorrow the Iran war becomes illegal under US law unless Congress votes to authorize it. 🚨 The 60 day War Powers Act deadline hits April 29. Under the 1973 law, the president must get congressional authorization to continue military operations or begin withdrawing troops. Congress has not authorized this war. The House failed to end it by a single vote. But Trump has not requested authorization yet. VP Vance has called the War Powers Act "a fake and unconstitutional law." Tomorrow could be big.

Maduro was not a legitimate president of Venezuela. It’s a good thing he’s gone. But it matters how we go about this. Our Constitution and the War Powers Act require the president to come before Congress and get authorization to use force. President Trump has not done that.

.Secretary Marco Rubio: "The War Powers Act is unconstitutional—100%. Now, this is not the position of me, not the position of President Donald J. Trump now, this is the position of every single president that has occupied this position since the day that law passed... We comply with it in terms of like notification because we want to preserve good relations with Congress... but even as a senator, I would say that the war powers act is 100% unconstitutional."

After 9/11 Congress passed a law called the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), allowing the government to bypass Congress and conduct perpetual war against anyone labeled a “terrorist”. This is why Trump keeps referring to Venezuelans as “narco-terrorists”.

Trump is blasting Venezuelan ships out of the water to make himself feel tough. Either send the Coast Guard onto these ships or come to Congress for a declaration of war. Plain and simple.

No congressional authorization = no legal war. The Constitution is clear. The Framers had Congress decide on war to protect Americans and force the President to be answerable to the public.

🚨🇺🇸 SEN. MARK KELLY: THIS IS ABOUT INTIMIDATION FROM TRUMP OVER OUR VIDEO, NOT THE LAW Kelly responded after being singled out by Trump and Sec. Hegseth for his video to U.S. armed forces urging them to disobey illegal orders, saying Trump’s attack was about politics, not legality: “These two guys informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. It’s about the media cycle and intimidation. It’s almost comical, how does reciting the UCMJ, which is the Uniform Code of Military Justice, become a violation of the same code? We basically repeated the Uniform Code of Military Justice, and they’re saying that’s in violation of it. It’s absurd.” Source: MSNBC
