Trump notifies Congress of new war against Iran

> Trump had previously notified lawmakers in May that the war launched in February had “terminated,” thereby negating a 60-day legal deadline under which military operations must halt without congressional authorization. This is an interesting way to game the system. End each 60-day war and start a new one, it's a new war so a new 60-day window.

as a Russian, I'm still waiting for EU/UK/AU/NZ/CA/JP/etc to impose sanctions upon the US over the previous illegal war :)
