In the past, sometimes presidents have said it’s just a military operation or limited airstrikes to skirt Congress. Trump has unilaterally launched major combat operations, declaring war with the goal of regime change. A major violation of the U.S. Constitution, also illegal under international law

Congress to vote on Trump’s war powers in aftermath of Iran strikes | CNN Politics Top Capitol Hill Democrats, and a small number of Republicans, watched in alarm Saturday as the administration launched a major US assault on Iran, decrying President Donald Trump’s call for the overt...

House and Senate Democratic leaders β€” as well as the famously anti-interventionist Republican Rep. Thomas Massie β€” are demanding that GOP leaders bring Congress back into session immediately to hold a formal vote on the conflict in Iran: https://cnn.it/4aXiHxY

The American people are sick and tired of endless wars built on false promises and paid for with innocent lives.

Congress must immediately pass Khanna-Massie War Powers Resolution.

Mark Carney on the wrong side of history here. Do better Canada. How can we support Trump/Bibi and their illegal war on Iran?

Nine months ago, the United States "completely and totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program.

Tonight, we're attacking Iran to disrupt their nuclear program.

A sizable percentage of this country thinks that's normal.

A U.S. official said American military strikes on Iran were underway.

A U.S. official said American military strikes on Iran were underway.

Remember when Congress authorized the use of force against Iran?

Me neither.

Any U.S. attack on Iran would violate U.S. and international law.

One of worst bits of the Epstein files, is that it’s so batshit crazy, it has you doubting your sanity believing any of it. This is late night conspiracy radio shit that you laughed at in the past.

If America was a country filled with people where the contents of the Epstein files could take down a president we wouldn’t be in this situation to begin with. He was elected AFTER access Hollywood, child separation, covid, being found liable for sexual abuse etc.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

I would think the First Lady, who was a porn model and has dozens of nude and sexual photos readily available online, as well as being close friends with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, would have more information on Epstein than Hillary Clinton, no?

Netflix ditches deal for Warner Bros. Discovery after Paramount’s offer is deemed superior Netflix is ditching a deal to buy Warner Bros. Discovery's studio and streaming assets after the WBD board deemed a revised bid by Paramount to be superior.

This really feels like an Orban/Erdogan situation in which the aspiring dictator is making sure his friendly oligarchs control as much media as possible

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Republicans on the cable shows this morning

-- Suddenly talking again about need to "take" Greenland
-- Hyping importance of "strangling" Cuban government
-- Encouraging Trump to "topple" Iranian regime

The Trump movement is totally out of control. This will not end well.

The Cuban Embassy says a Florida-registered speedboat entered Cuban waters this morning and allegedly opened fire on Cuban border guards who approached it, injuring the commander of the Cuban vessel. Cuba says four people on the U.S. boat were killed and six others aboard it were injured.
