Despite its rhetoric that Obama has violated the Constitution and waged war in Syria without a congressional declaration of war, the Republican controlled House on Thursday approved a $585 billion defense policy bill giving Obama the authority to expand the U.S. military campaign against the Islamic State.
The legislation earmarks $5 billion for largely useless airstrikes and will provide funding for boots on the ground in Syria.
In addition to Syria, the legislation designates $63.7 billion for “overseas contingency operations” in Afghanistan and Iraq.
It will also provide $24 million to expand the detention camp at Guantanamo Bay Obama promised to close.
$75 million will go to the coup government of Ukraine which is waging a fight against folks in the eastern part of the country who want nothing to do with a U.S. State Department installed government in Kiev that includes fascists and rabid nationalists. So far, more than 4,500 people have died in the conflict, most of them civilians.
