Hey everyone, Ellie here, wishing you a happy Friday. Well, a lot has changed since last Friday.

We are now at war with Iran. And the number one question I've been getting asked by listeners and

viewers alike is, is this legal? Is this constitutional? I know Preet and Joyce addressed this earlier in the week,

and I largely subscribe to their view. I think the short answer is probably not.

One really important thing I want to add and accentuate, though, even if this is an unconstitutional

war, and it probably is, there is no courtroom-based remedy for it.

There is no lawsuit to be brought. There is no federal judge in the country who would issue a

TRO, a temporary restraining order, saying, you must stop this action in Iran. That is simply not the way things work.

There was a similar instance, actually, semi-recently in Minnesota, when there were all these

lawsuits brought by the Minnesota AG to expel ICE and bar them from conducting operations in

Minneapolis in Minnesota. I told you at the time, I set on air at the time,

those lawsuits will fail. There's no way for a federal judge to kick ice out of a certain city or

state. Instead, the only thing that's going to do it and the thing that did do it in Minnesota

is political pressure. And the same applies here on perhaps a larger scale. The only thing that's

going to impose any accountability

or any consequences, if this is indeed an unconstitutional war, are going to come from the

political powers that be. What do I mean by that? I mean the American public. I mean protests.

I mean polling results that may be ugly for the president or the

Republican Party. I mean the markets. You know Donald Trump will respond if the markets start

taking a beating. And first and foremost, I mean Congress. Congress has the power to hold hearings,

to demand accountability, to ultimately, theoretically, to impeach. And so if your answer to that is, well,

Congress isn't going to do any of that, then my response is, well, there's your answer. Then you need
