🦗🦗Everything Old Is New Again

It was the Vietnam War that got people yelling “AMERICA!  LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT!” at the war protesters. Guess what: we finally walked away from that war. And the national manhood didn’t fall off or shrivel up.

And we didn’t do that so Stephen Miller could decide who stays in America, and who leaves.
Rep. Rick Crawford: "The War Powers Act is flawed in and of itself. If we're gonna address the president's authorities, we need to probably create another war powers act from whole cloth that does not impede his ability to continue to do what's necessary to defend this nation. We can't hobble the president."
Iran and Israel are doing a good enough job at that already, huh? Iran still seems to think they have a vote. I’d hate to see what “lack of control” looked like.

When does Congress do its Article I duties and say it’s time to cut our losses and leave? When we’ve got a new one that didn’t let Trump fail so disastrously?

Or, can we put Zelenskyy in charge of the war? He seems to have the cards:
Today, I presented state awards of Ukraine to the people without whom Operation “Spiderweb” would not have happened. We have no right to name them – everything remains absolutely classified and will remain so for a long time. This is already a historic operation by the Security Service of Ukraine, one that was carefully prepared, and on this very day one year ago, it entered its final stage – striking Russian military equipment. Farther than Ukrainian long-range capabilities had ever reached before. As precisely as no one in Russia expected. And as justly as the enemy’s strategic aviation deserves.

“Spiderweb” destroyed or at least damaged 41 aircraft. Never before had Russia lost such equipment, in such numbers, and as a result of strikes by drones that were incomparably cheaper. Ukraine has once again proved that it knows how to act asymmetrically, that it defends itself actively and truly creatively, and that Russia has no chance of overcoming Ukrainian courage. Ukraine will always be one step ahead – in technology, in bravery, and in the ability to capture the world’s attention and rally the support of millions of human hearts.

Ukraine is now applying long-range sanctions against Russia for this war literally every day. We did not start this war, we did not provoke it, and the only thing we wanted for Ukraine and Ukrainians was peace. But as long as the Russians choose the opposite, and as long as Russia does everything to drag out this war and expand it, Ukrainians will continue to find responses that will definitely work. I thank all our warriors for their precision! I thank the Security Service of Ukraine for its long-range leadership! I thank everyone who helps us! Glory to Ukraine!
Wait! As he says, they didn’t start that war. Better we just take the lesson of Vietnam, and leave.
