Nope - current War Powers Act says if he takes an action like he did, he has to notify the Congress of what he did - not ask permission...then he can continue operating for 60 days w/o consulting them.

He’s following the current “checks and balances” that are in place.

Ya I know. The WPA is a deviation from the normal process of war. It allows for temporary action by the President without consulting Congress.

I am perfectly fine with a president using force temporarily however the long term use of force, ie War, should be “checked” by Congress.
