Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, ripped Donald Trump for his military attack against Iran on Saturday, saying the move is “absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”
Ocasio-Cortez ripped the president’s action on X, formerly Twitter, and wrote, “The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”
On the other hand, Senator John Fetterman, a Pennsylvania Democrat, came to Trump’s side and wrote on X, “As I’ve long maintained, this was the correct move by @POTUS. Iran is the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism and cannot have nuclear capabilities. I’m grateful for and salute the finest military in the world.”
Then Congress should declare war per the constitution. Or do we not care about due process as long as it hurts the people we think are evil?
Every president is doing this. That’s why it was a bad statement. And with our congress being so shitty, I’m more concerned about actual effects on the world right now, legality has been irrelevant for 50+ years. People don’t see how close evil is to winning. The entire world could be like NK in a few decades if trends continue. This is not a game.
And you don’t see the two as connected? A fucking mazing.
Which is the cause and which is the effect?
