Forty-five years after Congress passed the War Powers Act in the wake of the Vietnam War, it has finally used it for the first time, to try to end the U.S.-Saudi war on the people of Yemen and to recover its constitutional authority over questions of war and peace.

President-elect Donald Trump faces an entirely new problem confronting U.S. imperialism. It is unprecedented. A new world is emerging. It is globally recognized that U.S. economic and political power is in an unstoppable downward spiral, having failed in decades of war to turn its fortunes around. Now it is at a tipping point. Even as…
