“We need Democrats to speak up when a Democratic president exceeds his or her powers, and I promise you that I plan to speak up when the next president of my party exceeds his or her proper powers.” -Ben Sasse, 2015

I often don't agree with Ben Sasse. but I always respected him as a straight shooter. That was nice while it lasted.

The best part is, the Trump supporters won't give him any credit for supporting Trump here.
-
I give him credit.
-
I will too. I think he gave an honest and accurate assessment of the situation. I've been tweeting all day about Congress blaming Trump instead of admitting that they've delegated this specific authority. Sasse is honest here.
-
Is it President Trump usurping power from Congress or Congress abdicating their responsibilities? I think the latter and for many decades. Way to go Ben
@BenSasse !!! -
Congress wrote the law that said a president could rededicate appropriated but unspent money within, in this case, the military's construction budget on projects relevant to natl security that are time sensitive.
-
Congress has made a habit in recent decades of writing broad guidelines which state "the secretary shall decide..." Then we end up with things like the Chevron deferral policy within the courts. eg "That's not quite how Congress wrote the law but we'll let the executive decide"

Yea, and today was the day for them to clearly take the powers back. Shame that republicans didn’t make that clear with clear majority vote that couldn’t be vetoed. As an Ind I voted many many Rs in my life. Never ever again. They’re cowards giving trump whatever Putin wants.
-
Today they voted to reign in this one instance and could still get enough votes to override a veto, but the legislation that gives any president the general power to move around funds is still there.

What a coward. "I want to fix executive overreach. Just not THIS executive overreach."
-
Just not at this time. Not the right time to stand for what is right, maybe next time.

I’m sorry but this is another cop out by Ben Sasse. His blanket support of Donald Trump undermines his self serving description of himself as a constitutional conservative.
-
He ain’t one.
