Restore Congressional Power to Declare War

Americans ought to ask, who is pulling the strings of President Biden who has instigated war with Putin? Ruining our Thanksgiving by firing 6 American made missiles at Russia, all but one intercepted; that one hitting a munitions target. Now, the threat of escalation looms. 


We’d like to thank Russ for his op-ed. Send yours to steve@granitegrok.com


What’s wrong with this? Are we to believe that the majority in Congress are ignorant of the fact that Article I, Section 8 gives them the sole power to “declare war?” After which, the president becomes the Commander-in-Chief. Unfortunately, Congress has either been ignorant of this fact, or they knowingly usurp their duty and are obedient to the Deep State War Hawks who laugh all the way to the bank. It seems Congress has chosen the latter, pursuing a mob-like loyalty to the Deep State and sending other men’s sons to war throughout every Administration since WWII. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, America’s finest youth, have died while Congress has been derelict in their duty to declare war. Thus betraying American moms and dads. 

What if China supplied missiles to Canada and then provided the technicians with security clearances to know the code to fire the missiles at the United States?  Would we not be up-tight about that? This is what President Biden has done. He ignored congressional power to declare war (as all of our presidents since Pearl Harbor have).  He didn’t even follow his predecessors’ illegitimate path to war by crawling on his hands and knees to UN/NATO for a resolution to go to war. It seems the game plan aggressively promotes the escalation of the Ukraine/Russian war because the Deep State fears President Trump will end the conflict.

We the people on November 5th gave ourselves  a special Christmas gift, the promise to keep us out of war.  During the approximately 60 days until President Trumps second term we are in a dilemma. Our defense must come from the wisdom of our Founders, the check and balance of power written in the Constitution. We must demand that Congress come out of their cage of non-committal and demand they overrule the president usurping their power. We must flood them with emails and phone calls to stop this agenda to start a third world war. For they are duty bound to obey the Constitution
