Show Notes

When U.S. and Israeli bombs fall on Iran, and Iranian bombs then strike American regional bases and even ritzy hotels in Dubai, it sure looks like war. Did the President have the authority for this war under the Constitution? Defenders of Trump’s power say it’ll be worth a little constitutional slippage if things turn out well. Is a happy ending likely? Ivan Eland, Williamson Evers, and Graham Walker address these questions and more on this episode of Independent Conversations.
