I’d rather they go back to hollowing out the federal government and stealing our data than kick off a global recession and world war 3.
Those were simpler times.
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
Yup. There’s always a few.
It’s so much a war they can’t even call it anything else.
All they can do is vote against it being a war, so they can circumvent the thing they all took an oath to uphold…the Constitution.
War power resolutions failed in both chambers of Congress.
The Department of limited and specific engagements.
Try reading what I wrote before getting all pleased with your gotcha comment.
We’re 7 days into something that looks like a war, feels like a war, costs like a war, has the same economic effects of a war, but we’re not supposed to call it a war because it would require the President to follow that annoying thing called the United States Constitution.
Here’s a hypothetical.
Two countries (A and B) attack another country (C).
In country A, public support for their attack is over 90%.
In country B, public support is less than 32%.
Whose war is it?
Israelis in Tel Aviv celebrating the war in Iran
Bibi is not a popular figure in Israel.
His war on Iran, however, is very popular.
80+% support overall.
93% amongst Jewish nationals.
We must be willing to face the truth, even it’s uncomfortable.
Bibi admitted to Hannity he’s been trying to get US support to topple
Iran for decades.
Rubio admitted that Israel forced our hand.
Bottom line is, without Bibi pushing Trump, we are not at war with Iran.
Regime change and nation building are back on the menu.
The costs of supporting Israel’s war on Iran:
- Dead American soldiers
- Dead elementary schoolgirls
- Over $1 Billion/day for combat ops
- Soaring gas prices
- Tanking markets
- Betrayed GCC allies
- Another constitutional crisis
…and growing.

Yet you’re here in my posts.
Yesterday, the White House used Call of Duty frames in their Iran war hype video.
They are hyping the prospect of war like an exciting video game.
Yes, I know this administration has no bottom.
No class, no integrity, no honor, no decency.
Yet they never cease to shock me.
So your original rant was based on something I wasn’t even talking about.
But you didn’t take it down and now it’s some other long winded rant.
Got it.
I’m not reading the rest of this bullshit.
Rant away.
What are you talking about? Impeachment? Removal?
This is about the war powers resolution and asserting congressional approval for a prolonged engagement.
If @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social cannot whip the vote to reclaim the rightful, constitutional authority of Congress from Trump, why is he still the leader?
Golden, Landsman and Cuellar have all received significant contributions from AIPAC and pro-Israel sources. They’re bought and paid for.
Not sure what got Vargas to flip yet.
Four democrats voted AGAINST a war powers resolution that would’ve forced Trump to seek congressional approval to continue waging Israel’s war on Iran.
Henry Cuellar (TX)
Jared Golden (ME)
Greg Landsman (OH)
Juan Vargas (CA)
The resolution failed 219-212.
🙄
The face you make when you realize the DHS spent hundreds of millions plastering Kristi Noem’s face over all their ads.
Yes, he’s still attached to the sex bed in the private plane.
The opportunity to lead an agency that isn’t funded and polls lower than salmonella, was too good to pass up.
Kristi Noem is in trouble,
Her scandals just keep on the double,
She shot her dog,
Even her boss is agog,
Now she has more time for her throuple.
Clearly you haven’t watched the show Vikings and are unaware of the exalted position of ShieldMaiden.
Are Oklahomans ready to elect someone better?
Possibly, or the governor will appoint an interim. They have the padding in the senate.
Shielded…until we have a DOJ again.
