The lack of Congressional authorization and funding has literally no influence on this war being directionless, and chipping Donald and Pete $60 billion won't either - even if the GOP agrees to attaching strings to the money.
Begging people to read anything that's not posts.
Insisting that Congress can provide direction to a directionless war after watching the executive steamroll the legal and normative basis for our Constitutional system over the last year is truly absurd stuff.
It's piffle. It's not worth even discussing or publishing. It's divorced from reality.

I am not someone who believes Star Trek is particularly deep either. Learning and understanding are good.
