Trump’s Board of Peace War. Seriously. MAGA and Republicans voted for this.

Yes, many Iranians are celebrating. I just thought it’d be all over with his death.

Instead of discussing, observing from the White House War Room, dementia Felon47 was partying in Mar-a-Lago when he declared war on Iran. Congressional switchboard: 202-224-3121

Lots of information here on Musk. You know, the foreigner who took a chainsaw to slash away US Federal departments and organizations. The guy who announced no fraud after all.

Trump’s Fury at Canada Backfires in Surprise Blow to GOP’s 2026 Hopes The number of Canadians visiting the U.S. fell off a cliff in 2025. It’s pretty clear why. And this fall, the GOP should be made to pay a political price for it.

This is striking: Trump's deranged attacks on Canada have caused a big drop in Canadian visits to states like Michigan, hurting the state's economy. There are 3 vulnerable House Republicans in Michigan. So this lunacy could help cost GOP the House. 1/

I was in OOB Beach, Portland, rural areas in Maine twice last year. There were no Canadians visitors around. Tourism has been wrecked by Trump. It’s so sad.

Live updates: Tehran launches retaliatory strikes as Trump calls for regime change The U.S. and Israel struck Iran on Saturday. President Donald Trump said the Iranian public should “take over" their government. The first strikes appeared to target Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Al...

I served 3 combat tours over our 20 years of war in the Middle East. Trump had an entire SOTU address to make the case for going to war in Iran. He did not.

Congress is absent, & for years, it has ceded its war making powers. Now, Trump has started another foreign war.

The Constitution is clear: the power to declare war belongs to Congress.

Read my statement on the President’s unconstitutional military action in Iran and the urgent need for an immediate war powers vote.

“We may have casualties.” Trump has taken us to war with Iran. He’s preparing the American people for casualties.

Everyone needs to call their Representatives and Senators to let them know how you feel about war. Congressional switchboard: 202-224-3121 #CalltoAction
