Episode Details

Trump sold "no more endless wars" and "America First", then turned around and launched major combat operations in Iran. In this one, we break down the flip flop using Trump's own past anti-Iraq rhetoric, then compare it to the new "NeoCon Manifesto" style messaging. We dig into the propaganda lines already flooding the media ("imminent threat," "not Iraq," "we didn't start this war") and why those narratives are designed to bypass the Constitution.

Then we hit the real problem: Congress. War Powers has been twisted into a permission slip for presidents to do whatever they want, while lawmakers dodge accountability because they do not want their names on the record. We close with founding-era quotes on war and why the framers tried to keep the "dog of war" on a leash.
