President Trump Absolutely Obliterates AOC After She Calls for His Impeachment Following Bombing...

So sick of that fruit cake. AOC stands for "Annoying Obnoxious Clown". This may draw fire, but I don't care.

While both Democratic and Republican Presidents have been criticized for using the military to take action against foreign adversaries, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez might want to read the text of the War Powers Resolution (WPR - aka the War Powers Act)*.

Presidents have used tenuous ties to the the Authorization for Use of Military Force that was passed after 9/11 as legal justification (when they bother to give any as required by the WPR) as it is so broad that you can fly a B-2 bomber through it:

"That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons."

I'm curious what exactly is an impeachable offence.

It may be objectionable to some members of Congress, especially those, regardless if they do or don't belong to the same political party of the President, that disagree with the current and past President's view that their Article 2 powers allow them to act unilaterally in small-scale operations as long as they notify Congress within the required 48-hour period.

However, it being an "impeachable offense" is pushing the bounds of partisanship into clear stupidity.

I do agree with CSM Chuck Stafford about punching down from the podium.

People should try and not get too upset about partisan politicians making wild claims and spouting 'party line' rhetoric. They are just doing what partisan politicians do.

You don't get upset when a dog pees on a fire hydrant, do you? They are doing what dogs do.

Impeachment is not a criminal proceeding. The Constitution does not define high crimes and misdemeanors. They are whatever the house of representatives decides they are in any given case. Impeachment is an administrative/political act.

Rep Ocasio-Cortez can quite legitimately call for impeachment and even submit for a vote on articles of impeachment.to tailor an old expression "you can impeach a ham sandwich." And I honestly hope she does. It will only serve to highlight the lunacy of the left fringe.

What Rep Ocasio-Cortez fails to understand is that we have been at a state of war since the 1972 Munich Olympics. It is not a war of out choosing, we (the western world) have exercised restraint. Restraint has achieved nothing. What the militant Muslim world (not all Muslim states are militant) has to do to win is not lose. It is long past time to make them lose.
