Reagan Attorney General Ed Meese Says Obama's Efforts to Reduce Nukes is Unlawful (+video)

President Barack Obama is “going beyond his powers” in seeking to negotiate a reduction in nuclear weapons with Russian President Vladimir Putin, former U.S. Attorney General Edwin Meese III tells Newsmax TV in an exclusive interview.

“He’s essentially making a treaty unilaterally without going through the constitutional process of the treaty, which a president can sign, but it must be ratified then by the Senate in order to be a part of the supreme law of the land,” Meese tells Newsmax. “I have serious questions about this, about both his authority and about the effect of what this might be”…

“[President Reagan] recognized that there are dangers to the United States — and I don’t believe he would have gone along with this kind of an approach. He believed that our best chance of having peace in the world and avoiding a nuclear war was to have strength.”
