    And would anyone expect this court to rule the AUMF unconstitutional?

      As I said, it’s been in use for coming up on 23 years now. There have been plenty of Courts available during that time.

      Saying that it’s not a good law - which I would actually agree with - is a very different thing from saying that it’s unconstitutional.
