Trump bombed nuclear sites in Iran without a vote. No debate. No check. Just fire. AOC says it’s grounds for impeachment. She’s right. This isn’t defense. It’s dictatorship with better branding.

"Trump has spent the last five months vowing that the Ukraine-Russia war would never have happened if he was president, vowing that the Israel-Gaza war would never have happened if he was president. And yet the reality is that not only has he not avoided war, but he’s plunged us into a new one."

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

Sen Bernie Sanders reacted in real time—fierce, unwavering, and absolutely right—calling out Trump’s unconstitutional and illegal act of war on Iran. This is a flagrant abuse of power. Every Republican enabling this lawless escalation must be hounded and held accountable.

“No New Wars” turned into “Let’s bomb Iran” real quick. It’s almost like the Trump regime is ideologically captured by the military industrial complex…

And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?
