Daily Signal-
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., faulted fellow Republicans for banging the “drums of war” with China, saying his new bill, the End Endless Wars Act, would replace a post-9/11 law.
Since 2001, the law known as Authorization for Use of Military Force, or AUMF, has been used by presidents to legally justify multiple military ventures without congressional input.
“It’s a pretty darn important vote. We should vote on whether we have war,” Paul said Wednesday, speaking at The American Conservative magazine’s 10th annual Foreign Policy Conference.
“This has been an ongoing battle, and today we are introducing the End Endless Wars resolution,” the Kentucky Republican added. “That is once again to repeal the 9/11 AUMF. We [would] repeal [it] in six months. The reason we give them six months—and maybe six months after 22 years—but we do that simply because some of us simply argue we have to have some ability to plan the transition.” more
good luck wid dat nigga
I would vote for it, but I’m not a politician taking bribes from military industrial complex, pharma, Ukraine, and so on.
At the very least this will show who is on the military contractors’ payroll and who is using Ukraine to launder money and the like.
There is no reason for a military war with China. All we have to do is stop giving them access to our country.
Oh, and allow free enterprise and oil production, like we had 4 years ago under a different president.
Winsey Gwamm can’t catch his bweaff.
The republican & democrat warmongers will come out of the woodwork, like roaches during the dead of night.
Before I was deployed, I remember being told by my Gunnery Sergeant that Vietnam was a shitty war, but it was the only one we have. He was right on both counts.
The same could be said for Iraq and Afghanistan.
And now we have deployed our Military in Ukraine, another shitty war with no clear objective favorable to our National Security.
They (recent wars) have all been meat grinders the political warmongers create to chew up the youth of our nation and destroy families and for what good purpose? Vietnam is communist, Iraq is more aligned with Iran and Afghanistan is overtaken by muslim Taliban zealots.
Our youth and treasury were wasted only to surrender after decades of carnage.
CATO
My old eyes no longer work well. Is that an E,G +A I see?
