If you're one of the people who's selectively offended because President Trump had an Iranian terrorist killed without getting permission from Congress, you were probably in a coma between the years 2008 & 2016.
President Barack Obama launched at least 2800 military strikes during his time in office in places like Iraq and Syria without ever getting congressional approval.
The Washington Times reported in April 2015, "The U.S. military has been conducting strikes in Iraq for 10 months, and began striking directly at targets in Syria last September as part of Mr. Obama’s announced campaign to degrade the capabilities of the Islamic State."
This past weekend’s attacks brought the total to 1,458 strikes in Iraq and 1,343 in Syria by U.S. forces. Coalition forces allied with the U.S. have conducted another 655 attacks on Iraqi targets and 95 in Syria.
Mr. Obama has justified the attacks under his commander in chief powers and under the 2001 resolution authorizing force against al Qaeda, and the 2002 resolution authorizing the ouster of Saddam Hussein in Iraq.
Some lawmakers on Capitol Hill have said Mr. Obama is stretching those laws and that the strikes could be illegal — though they say they want to put them on firm footing by passing a new authorization.
So earlier this week when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she was outraged about how President Trump responded to the angry militia that attacked our embassy in Iraq, she was probably lying. Imagine that.
