Since when is Democrats gaming the system considered to be news?
In a way, I like that the Congress is trying to limit the president's powers. I didn't much like the abuse of power by his last 5 predecessors. War Powers act is the thin edge of the wedge of WAR. A representative republic should be much less eager to prosecute wars (in everything but name) abroad.
I wish the Dems had been more concerned about presidential abuse of power when it was neolibs and neocons in office. Expand the power and authority of the state at home? Topple sovereign governments abroad? That's all well and good. But try to tap the brakes on government expansion at home OR abroad, and you're Satan, incarnate, to these idiots who insist they don't believe in God. To them, only Satan exists! LOL! All hail the New Religion!
Recall, the Dems, trying to give Obama MORE power passed the "Nuclear Option" to facilitate confirmation of appointments. This is why TRUMP has appointed 184 federal judges and gotten them confirmed! Now, as the opposition party, they're trying to take away the powers from Trump that they wanted Obama to have. This might be the only way to limit abuse of power by the president in the long run. They THINK they're tying TRUMP's hands, but in all likelihood, they're just making it so that the next Democrat president won't be able to bypass the legislature with endless, damaging executive orders. Most of the "abuse" of which they accuse Trump is his rescinding Obama's executive orders! If it's abuse of power for Trump to rescind those orders, then it was abuse of power to enact them in the first place!
Recall, Obama blurred the line between opinion and news. What happened? The mask fell off the Fake News legacy media. The restraints were removed and they showed their true face, exulting in the power of propaganda, only to find that the people no longer trust them! People like Brian Stelter are absolutely shameless in their propagandizing.
The DNC has had most of the government agencies in its hip pocket for years, most of the courts, most of the (legacy) media, all of the public schools. And it just... doesn't.... matter! The more they use force and abuse the rules for short-term gain, the more they lose and the more they are going to lose.
