The Authorization to Use Military Force (AUMF) of 2001, and 2002, never authorized 'all the big lies he told about Iraq' and Afghanistan.

'False pretenses - President Bush, for example, made 232 false statements about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and another 28 false statements about Iraq's links to Al Qaeda'.  

'That Iraq is an "imminent threat" to the United States, capable of attacking the United States within forty-five minutes and Iraq may actually be planning an attack on the United States, and Iraq has deadly nuclear weapons that could result in a mushroom cloud over one of our cities and Iraq has huge stockpiles of the most dangerous and deadly Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) known to mankind'..
