   "Since 1973, most presidents have ignored parts or all of the War Powers   
   Resolution."   
      
   "In 2011, President Barack Obama ordered a military intervention in Libya   
   without asking for congressional approval. Forces were engaged there for   
   about eight months as the Obama administration argued that its military   
   presence didn’t fall under the War Powers Resolution."   
      
   "In recent years, President Joseph Biden also cited the AUMF of 2002 and the   
   same Article II powers asserted by the first Trump administration in taking   
   military actions against Iran-backed militant groups in Iraq, Syria, Yemen,   
   and the Red Sea."
