US Fighter Jets Send Message to China With ‘Emergency’ Landing in Taiwan

LOL...I think you misunderstand what I say, due to the US government balance of power, US president can do a whole lot of thing, but one way or another the president him or her self does not have sole power or executive power on virtually anything.

US president can issue executive order, but unless that order is under the scope of US constitution, the order still need congress approval...

Executive order - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



President is indeed the Commander In Chief, and he can issue mobilisation order and mobilise the Armed Force, but then he again need to turn to the senate and congress for funding, the president can indeed order the armed force to go anywhere in the world and do whatever, but without congress release the fund, who pay for the mobilisation?

United States Senate Committee on Armed Services - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia




President can nominate AG, General and Admiral of the Armed Force, commissioning officer of the Armed Force but then the nomination and appointment have to be endorsed/confirmed by the US senate

Being able to nominate is one thing, can the nominee get the job is another.

Well, then the pardon thing is the executive power, and no, US President are allow to conduct diplomacy, not conduct foreign policy, those are the job of State Department. Diplomacy, however, ia the job of US President.

Read the highlighted part in Red or blue, you will understand what I am trying to say

By the way, I was a captain of the US Army and had i not get medical diacharge from afghanistan, i would have been a LTC by now, some of my friend work in the pent in direct support of senate armed forces committe...They are either full bird or LTC.

But then i am welcome to critism if you think I an wrong about anything I said

Obviously Presidential appointments need Senate approval, but that is still considered an executive power because the Senate can only approve from the people the President selects. As for executive order that grants the President the sole power to enforce a rule or regulation that is constitutional. Also executive orders have the power of law (that's called executive power).

The President can militarily unilaterally act in situations of imminent danger to national security. As for who pays for it? Its in the military budget. Any prolonged campaign would require Congressional approval and funding.

That is incorrect and you also just contradicted yourself. President can conduct diplomacy but not foreign policy? Diplomacy is critical part of foreign policy. Also you obviously don't understand foreign policy is conducted by the President and the bureaucracy he has is the State Department lead by the Secretary of State who is a presidential Appointment of his choosing (approved by the Senate) and a member of the President's cabinet, which he is in CHARGE OF.

You also seem to be forgetting the president has the right to make and sign treaties without Congressional approval but the Senate has right to give "Advice and Consent", that is another executive power and example of how the President has power in conducting foreign relations. That is called power to conduct foreign relations. President can also make "executive agreements" with foreign nations without ratification from Congress, that's why Congress is p'oed about Pres. Obama's nuclear deal with Iran, they don't have power to stop him by law.

You should read the Constitution Article II. Matter of fact, read the whole thing.

Point is you foolishly said the President has no executive sole power besides the veto, that's not what the U.S. constitution says. I just gave you so many examples of executive power besides the veto.

lol, okay, whatever you say

Not in any mood to discuss your point of view and intrepretation, have already quote the necessarily law and passage, let the reader decide, shall we?

And the message is recieved loud and clear. The USAF and the USN air arm is in trouble. Their existing fleet of fighter jets are getting old and the F-35 isn't ready for prime time yet.

It's not my interpretation. It's a matter of law, written all in the Constitution. Article II you should start with.

doesn't that F-22 look mighty beautiful though? I think I'm in love

USAF & USN are now comprised of nothing more than 3rd world tech. The USN & USAF are completely weak and should surrender immediately.

You don't have to be sarcastic. The fact is that the current fleet of US fighters has to serve much longer than expected because of the delays in the F-35 program. And the F-35 won't be combat capable for many years to come. And the F-35 has eaten up the budget to buy new planes in the interim to fill in the gap.

yes, the message is loud and clear. To all Chinese:

The F18s are getting old, this one need an oil change at Chan's Garage in Taiwan.
