Let me be clear: the President does *not* have the authority to take us to war with Iran without the approval of Congress.
The last thing we need is to be thrust into another forever war. Congress must assert its Constitutional authority and insist on blocking further hostilities with Iran. (2/2)

My town, Belfast Maine. Population 7,000. 800 demonstrated yesterday. More than 10% of the population. Numbers like that all over Maine. This picture was early. Police closed Church Street (lower left) and it was filled before the day ended.

2003, in the lead up to Iraq, I marched in Detroit. We filled Washington Blvd. from Grand Circus Park to Coco Hall, about 3/4 of a mile. The newspapers reported that "several hundred" people participated.
