    This isn’t foreign policy.

    It’s a policy that pertains to how the US relates to a foreign government. If that’s not foreign policy, nothing is. Plus, have you read the lawsuit? It wants the court to order the president to “influence” Israel. Influencing a foreign government is smack dab in the middle of the president’s authority.

    Congress absolutely has the right to tell the President they can’t give stuff to war criminals because it’s our stuff.

    Yes. And they have declined to do so.

    The Leahy law doesn’t say if the executive feels like they’re war criminals

    It says the Secretary of State shall make that determination. Secretary of State is part of the executive branch.

    You think we have a king. We do not.

    That’s obviously not what I think.
