It was the correct response. Saved me the typing.

But it wasn't.

lol gay

Not saying he's gay but I am saying it's weird to keep vying for my attention daily for well over a year now with no response to any of his/hers/they/them replies.

But it wasn't.

Of course it was, joey. None of the people you mention is inciting insurrection and wants to end democracy in the US to cling to power. They're all expendables.

Those I mentioned have been wrong from the get go and a year later we still got uncons utional lockdowns and mandates. Democracy is dead in this Republic.

Being wrong is not a crime. Actively trying to destroy democracy and the government is.

First Strike or preemptive attack is indeed a declaration of war. How could it not be? The Cons ution clearly delegates that authority to Congress.

Trump thinks he can do it secretly, without informing anyone else

Based on far-fetched, even pretextual threats to the US

The Trump administration is waging a secret war against undisclosed enemies without the consent of Congress, according to a confidential notice that was sent to several congressional committees this week and obtained by The Intercept. It marks the most detailed explanation of the legal underpinnings offered by the administration for a series of lethal attacks onboats in the Caribbean that began last month.

President Donald Trump has decided that the United States is engaged in a declared state of “non-international armed conflict” with “designated terrorist organizations” or DTOs, according to the notice. It describes three people killed by U.S. commandos on a boat in the Carribean last month as “unlawful combatants,” as if they were soldiers on a battlefield. This is a significant departure from standard practice in the long-running U.S. war on drugs, in which law enforcement arrest suspected drug dealers as opposed to summarily executing them.

“The President directed the Department of War to conduct operations against [DTOs] pursuant to the law of armed conflict,” reads the notice. “The United States has now reached a critical point where we must use force in self-defense and defense of others against the ongoing attacks by these designated terrorist organizations.”
