This war has never been formally declared: Tucker Carlson says about USA and Russia

Tucker Carlson suggests there is an unannounced and undeclared war going on between the United States and Russia. While there is no official war between the United States and Russia, Tucker Carlson of Fox News seems to believe there's something going on or at least brewing. Tucker said the following in an opinion column on Fox News and the video above:

This is a hot war between the two primary nuclear superpowers on Earth and yet this war has never been formally declared.

It has not been authorized by Congress and for that reason, this war is a violation of American law. It is a crime. The second thing we learn from these slides is that despite direct U.S. involvement, Ukraine is in fact losing the war. Seven Ukrainians are being killed for every Russian. Ukrainian air defenses have been utterly degraded. Ukraine is losing. The Biden administration is perfectly aware of this.

They're panicked about it, but they have lied about this fact to the public. Just two weeks ago, for example, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin told the U.S. Senate that Russian military power is "waning." In other words, Russia is losing the war. That was a lie. He knew it was when he said it, but he repeated it in congressional testimony. That is a crime, but Lloyd Austin has not been arrested for committing that crime.

Instead, the only man who has been taken into custody or likely ever will be is a 21-year-old Massachusetts Air National Guardsman who leaked the slides that showed that Lloyd Austin was lying. He revealed the crimes, therefore he's the criminal.
