Trump Challenges War Powers Act: US Strikes Latin American Cartels Without Congress Approval! 🇺🇸🔥

Nov 1, 2025  #WarPowersAct
In a bold move, the Trump administration has told Congress that the War Powers Resolution of 1973 doesn’t apply to recent U.S. military strikes against Latin American drug cartels. 
Officials claim these operations are not “hostilities,” meaning the President can authorize targeted strikes abroad without congressional approval. 
  • These missions, including Navy drone and air strikes in the Caribbean and Pacific, are part of a larger campaign to protect U.S. borders from narcotics-related threats. 
  • However, this decision sparks serious legal and constitutional debates, with lawmakers from both parties questioning whether it sets a dangerous precedent. 
  • Experts also warn of potential international law violations and rising diplomatic tensions
