War is on everyone's mind this week, so we dive into the Israel-Iran conflict and how it's highlighting tensions among Trump's advisors. Then we discuss the question: How is it the President of the United States can drag the nation into military conflict without congressional approval and is there any check on the president's power as commander and chief? Learn how American presidents have long fought wars without declaring them and sidelined congress along the way.
The Politics of New America explores and explains the actions of the United States federal government in this era of radical change. Join us as we breakdown the Trump administration's policies and add context to the headlines.
