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.

CHAOS IS IMMINENT.
The day is coming that all Americans are doomed and election 2016 is done for if we don’t get him out of the White House.
At this point is lock and load time to force the White House gates to be torn down and force the secret service to the ground, push that monster out.
This resolution should be rejected and Cruz and Rubio need to get back to the Senate when the debate comes up. Obama is doing what I feared , trying to make a Dictatorship out of the Constitution, and it takes a liberal Democratic Senator to wake us up!
