It is not congress's job to be the chief in command, and all decisions about the military themselves should be left the the president.

congressional approval for military conflicts emphasizes democratic principles and oversight, opponents argue that it may not always be practical or in the best interest of national security, particularly in emergency situations or those requiring a swift response.

Congress has given the President to use war powers through the War Powers Resolution.
@9FP68FW8mos8MO
Requiring congressional approval would put our troops at risk. certain actions should be kept highly confidential and under the purview of the president
@9F9GR5L8mos8MO
I think the President, should have a little more lead-way to deploy military assests especially in times of conflict.

Democracy is slow by nature, and thus bound to delay assistance to people who desperately and urgently need it. Non-congressional military action isn't something I'd overuse, but quickly being able to come to the rescue would be nice.
