## Resource

On Tuesday’s Mark Levin Show, when we suddenly hit the brakes and called off the planned military operation against the Iranian regime, it was clear that something was going on. We gave the regime 2-3 days to come to some arrangement that presumably includes no nukes. What does no nukes mean? The regime is a borderless religious extremist cult that has repeatedly cheated on agreements and seeks conquest, not coexistence. The core concern is the lack of credible nuclear enforcement because the regime will violate any deal and that future U.S. leaders may lack the political will to respond. Also, the truth about war powers. No president, of either party, has accepted the constitutionality of the 1973 War Powers Act. The Supreme Court has never ruled on the Act's constitutionality and likely never will. The only power Congress has to prevent a military operation is the power of the purse. A president has broad power to take military action. Later, in breaking news Ed Gallrein defeats Rep Thomas Massie in the Kentucky House primary, after Massie tried to win votes by blaming Jews and the Israeli lobby. Learn more about your ad choices.
