Sam Bushman and constitutional scholar Dr. Scott Bradley break down the expanding US-Iran conflict, the staggering $4 billion/day burn rate, the $200 billion supplemental request, the Strait of Hormuz crisis, and the glaring absence of a congressional declaration of war.
They explore whether the "lack of planning" is the plan itself, how the petrodollar is at risk, and why the founders insisted war powers belong to Congress, not to a president who says it'll end "when he feels it in his bones."
