President Mike Johnson, a former constitutional lawyer, defended Trump’s authority to launch military strikes on Iran without authorization from the Congress, arguing that the president’s decision did not violate the Constitution.
“Many respected constitutional experts argue that the law on war powers is itself unconstitutional.

Johnson also observed that most of the military operations since the Second World War have been carried out without declaration of war in the Congress.

President [Barack] Obama has launched an eight -month bombing campaign in Libya to oust Gaddafi, “said Johnson.” President [Bill] Clinton has launched air patrols and air strikes in Bosnia and a bombing campaign in Yugoslavia. Each of these actions has been taken unilaterally and without prior authorization from the congress. »»
