Adam Schiff Stumbles When Confronted With Obama’s Statements On War Powers

HBO host Bill Maher caught Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) off guard when he confronted him with statements attributed to President Donald Trump, which were actually made by former President Barack Obama.

Schiff joined Friday’s episode of “Real Time” to discuss the ongoing conflict in Iran. Schiff, like most of his Democrat colleagues, has claimed that Trump “illegally” launched the war and has supported a failed War Powers Resolution aimed at stopping the president from conducting operations.

During the panel segment, host Maher raised questions about the scope of executive power in military decisions. This led to an exchange where Maher presented a statement attributed to “the administration” regarding presidential authority.

“This statement from the administration, The President had constitutional authority to direct use of military force because he could reasonably determine that such use was in national interest. That’s too vague for you?” Maher asked, to which Schiff responded with, “Totally vague.”

Maher then revealed the source of the quote. “Okay cause thats from Obama about Libya,” he followed up.

The quote originated from the Obama administration’s 2011 justification for U.S. intervention in Libya, where airstrikes were conducted as part of a NATO-led operation to protect civilians amid the civil war against Muammar Gaddafi. The Obama White House argued that the action did not constitute “hostilities” under the War Powers Resolution, thus not requiring prior congressional authorization.

Sometimes, the enemy of my enemy, is also my enemy.
Islam sanitizes oppression. Islam rebrands cruelty as culture, and expects applause from Liberal fools for their Islamic progressivism.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

Maher's obviously not aligned with us, but to his benefit, he has not wavered one bit on his positions and principles.  Just shows how quickly the left has accelerated left off the cliff of sanity,
