> 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.
