MAGAt Moses Mikey: "We don't need to take away the authority from the commander in chief and the Pentagon right now."

Johnson: "The war powers act on the House floor is being forced. They're going around the speaker with a discharge to bring that to the floor. I don't believe it'll pass and I hope it doesn't, because we don't need to take away the authority from the commander in chief and the Pentagon right now."
