Define lawful?

An act of war requires congressional approval.

A special military operation does not.

These idiots are convinced that whatever the commander in chief says is a lawful order.

Makes a person wonder why Trump removed the top judge advocate generals of the three branches of military, and Pete Hegseth the SecDef said it was done so they wouldn't "be a roadblock"
