Iโ€™m really struggling to imagine Congress without Rep Jasmine Crockett next year. We need more fighters, not fewer.

AOC: We already have multiple American service members who are dead for an illegal action that the president has pursued with no plan out. They donโ€™t know why they got into this war. Theyโ€™re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they donโ€™t know how theyโ€™re getting out.

Itโ€™s time to move the UN building out of New York, itโ€™s not neutral ground; Trumpโ€™s US envoy to the UN Mike Waltz threatened to assassinate Iranโ€™s Ambassador to the United Nations.

Trump henchman Mike Johnson: โ€œWe're not at war right now.โ€

They keep repeating this line so they can argue against the โ€œcongress must authorize a warโ€ rule and evade the consequences of declaring war without congress or a legal international basis.

it took FIVE days for the Trump admin to agree to help US citizens evacuate the mideast. Other countries sorted this out immediately but the Trump team took five days to move from 'you are on your own, to okay i guess we'll help.'

The US showed its contempt with the world, international law, and UN by having Melania Trump, with no actual experience, lead the UN Security Council as the war of aggression against Iran continues to spiral out of control.
