In reality the vast majority of folks on this board as well as its administration hold you in poor regard. There was a reason that the Admin of this site banned you and it is obvious you are now using alters to continue your incessant condescending bullshite, which you obviously spend an inordinate time doing so daily. Just a matter of time that you are banned again.

Is there a court opinion forbidding this administration from shooting at these boats in international waters? Have not seen it

Leary's argument was basically "It is effective." Yes, it is certainly that. It is also illegal and unconstitutional.

You people seem to be OK with that.


The constitution does NOT apply to NON CITIZENS. They are not citizens of the USA and therefore are not protected by nor have any rights guaranteed (NOT granted) to American Citizens. Period. They are foreign criminals attempting to bring poisonous substances into our country. F them and F you too if you don’t like it. Move to Venezuela and volunteer to guard them and assist in their activities and see how that works out for you.

The Caribbean boats are taking it to Trinidad. So, you're blowing up civilians of another country 1,500 or whatever miles away on the assumption those drugs will make their way to the U.S. -- which, may not even be correct in the first place if they get shipped to Europe.

This part is incorrect. The constitution most certainly applies to non-citizens. But those protections end at the border. I dont think it even applies to US citizens outside of the US. If I go to Afghanistan and join the Taliban the USG is under no obligation to give me due process on the battlefield. That’s why we sent all the terrorists to Gitmo instead of prisons here in the US. Once they’re on US soil they’re afforded all of the protections of the Constitution.

This is all pretty irrelevant. We can kill terrorists if we think they’re headed to Europe to conduct an attack. We can kill pirates in international waters even if the boats they are attacking aren’t US flagged. This isn’t any different.

Nope, hasn't gone to court yet.

But the justification they will use when it does has already been shot down by the lower courts.

You are anticipating an argument that is nowhere applicable

This is a military operation - this is no different than invading Iraq

Congress can stop it but the courts do not have that authority

ETA - for 11 pages they have argued it's unconstitutional yet no authority for support even though I asked - typical

The fact that the administration is invoking the Alien Enemies Act means that Trump thinks it's different than invading Iraq. We didn't invoke that Act when we invaded Iraq, did we?

FDR needed war and FDR made sure we got war. Meanwhile, the carrier groups were out and about, away from the aerial bombing that occurred at the Pearl Harbor port.

FDR was and always will be a POS!!

In March the administration invoked the AEA to militarily target members of TdA, which they had declared a terrorist organization in February, and also to deport Venezuelans in America suspected of ties with TdA. TdA is a Venezuelan gang, if you didn't know. I suspect you can see the common thread here.

This is a tactic Trump has used before, btw. During his first term he classified Iran's military as a terrorist organization. He does this because his legal team thinks that it allows him to take any action he wants against the designated entities apart from Congress or any other authority. They think it is a loophole/end run/whatever you want to call it to side-step the War Powers Act. Which is also why the constitutionality of all of this is suspect/in question.

If you're going to say that these are military operations, then you're binding yourself to the WPA and you have 48 hours to notify Congress and only 60 days before you have to withdraw the operation if Congress doesn't approve/declare war.

Trump's legal team thinks the AEA is the answer to that pesky WPA.

Here's my thing. Trump is certainly not the first POTUS to find some way to ignore the WPA. It's basically become normal and frankly, we ought to either follow it, or just stop pretending and get rid of it.

But as far as I know, he's the first to use the US military against international organized crime. So he's going to face scrutiny for this.

Whether anyone likes it or not, whether anyone thinks it's good or bad, Trump is pushing very hard—harder than any POTUS in my lifetime—to expand executive powers.

He'll be successful with some efforts and unsuccessful with others. And he'll face a lot of opposition along the way. That's to be expected with something like this.

That's great, moron.

The evidence says otherwise, but who gives frick about evidence when there's a great conspiracy theory to be had? In fact, for idiots like yourself, the lack of evidence proves that the theory is correct, right? Shows just how deep the conspiracy went.

Amarite fellas? Amarite?

incorrect.

He re-designated the nation of Iran as a state sponsor of terrorism (Obama removed to make signing the JCPOA legal) AND designated the IRGC, who reports to the clerics and not the state's military structure, as a terrorist organization.
