Is Congressional approval required for that?

It's not a declaration of war?

Dunno.

The President in every possible instance shall consult with Congress before introducing United States Armed Forces into hostilities or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, and after every such introduction shall consult regularly with the Congress until United States Armed Forces are no longer engaged in hostilities or have been removed from such situations.

Deploying assets into friendly NATO countries?

Are you saying hostilities against them are "imminent"?

You know something we don't?

Fair enough.

I'm watching the Ukrainian Ambassadors address to the UN Council.

Suggest you do the same.

It's brought tears to my eyes.

I'm not posting for a while because I may say something to you that might be a serious T&C violation.

Goodnight.

Nobody here has really known for more than half a century either.

Politicians appear to just make up different rules for each situation, and few seem to care.

Damn democrats.
