The Authorization for Use of Military Force passed by the Senate is a rewrite of the Constitution’s War Powers clause and grants the President broad authority to deploy ground troops almost everywhere in the world, including the United States. That’s the warning being voiced by Democratic Senator Chris Murphy in response to the AUMF bill proposed by Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
The bill would grant the president overwhelming control over where the US forces are deployed, which is scary for two reasons. The first is the obvious threat to American citizens’ rights. If the military can be sent to an American city based on loose justifications, they could be used to impose martial law and even empower a police state that has already grown too powerful.
The second reason is the plain call back to Manifest Destiny. Americans do not want to police the world. If the European Union is too busy handling the migrant crisis and Russia has finally come to terms with the harsh economic reality that their country is on the brink of collapse, it would leave the United States to ensure the sovereignty of all democratic nations. A solution that nobody would want.

Lmaooooooooooo – I’d like to see Putin’s face when he hears Osama has declared “International Martial Law”
Andrew Easternman I’m not saying that they only have 400,000. They have 400,000 that are already here, with the intention of bringing in more. The$#%&!@*tater we have, is federalizing more than 53 LOCAL police departments, which makes it easy to staff those departments with those who back the current agenda and UN forces that don’t have to abide by our Constitution. The other fact is that DARPA is quickly developing AI robotic technology that has proved useful, that they intend on using to confiscate the citizen’s guns. DARPA has stated that the goal is to mass produce a billion or more units in a year. Humans won’t be used for this task, I can guarantee it.
November 2016 All 435 House seats are up for grabs Vote thaem all out ,and 34 senate seats are up for grabs get them out two.
Just one more way to stop us real Americans. So he can send his troops to shoot us but we are not allowed to vote our choice into office? How did we get so lazy and stupid as to allow this to even come up for a vote? Close our borders and fix our own issues! The world needs to decide and fend for themselves. WE ARE NOT THE WORLD’s FINANCE OFFICE!
Good points there, Randy! I feel that an uprising would run into stiff resistance here in America, facing all kinds of new technologies, which would be employed against the people, in a massive gun-grab. But I also think that all of our armed citizens who have the balls to stand up to it with wisdom and tenacity, COULD PREVAIL.
I’m praying for endtimes prophecy to kick in full steam ahead and get this$#%&!@*over with!!! I’m serious!!!!
