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 this.

Obama set a red line in response to a question in a debate
Obama went to Congress - they didn't agree with that red line
So that wasn't walking away that was following the constitution
But Fox said it was a failure and no one else every challenged that with facts

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge.
They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership.
We do not have serious people running our country.
A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nationβs people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustnβt let this war do so.
So for all you βleave NATOβ dummies out there, wanna explain how we defend ourselves without them?
Britain, France, Germany, the GCC (Bahrain, Kuwait, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman) are currently knocking down Iranian missiles and drones.
And this is just Iran. Not a peer.
Itβs really crazy how much Iβve been agreeing with Rep. Thomas Massie recently!

BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly pissed that female Republicans in the House are very close to revealing all the men for whom Congress has paid tax dollars to settle sexual harassment lawsuits because those dirty secrets are some of his best blackmail to keep Congress docile.

Doctors told my mom she was βstressedβ
She was covered in bruises from intense itching. Had back pain and trouble breathing.
Turns out it was stage 4 pancreatic cancer.
She died at 48.
Iβve spent my whole life fighting for healthcare. Battling misogyny in medicine.
Itβs exhausting. And wrong.
This you, Donald?
"Our president will start a war w/Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. Heβs weak and heβs ineffective. So the only way he figures that heβs going to get re-elected, and as sure as you're sitting there, is to start a war w/Iran." β DJT, Nov. 2011
