Please whip your caucus, Senator Schumer. Peter Welch (D-VT) is on CNN singing Markwayneโ€™s praises. This must be a unanimous NO by every Democrat in Congress.

This is a midterm year. Weโ€™re doing our part in huge numbers.
The Democrats weโ€™ve already elected must do theirs.

"You told Americans to depart now via commercial means when you know many airports/airspace are closed. You must immediately schedule U.S. government evacuation flights for the stranded Americans in danger. Maybe you should have thought of a frickin' plan first."

Netanyahu told Fox News host Sean Hannity that the assault on Iran โ€œis not an endless war.โ€

He famously said the same thing in 2002 about the Iraq War.

His prediction that removing Saddam Hussein would bring โ€œpositive reverberationsโ€ after the 2003 Iraq invasion did not come to fruition.

Trumpโ€™s bombing Iran. And whereโ€™s Congress?

We should be called back immediately to vote.

Americans deserve to know who is willing to send their kids off to fight more endless wars.

Take note of all corporate media that parrot Israel's propaganda of "pre-emptive strike." Call it out immediately.

Also, take note of all the Democratic war hawks who tacitly or publicly rationalize this illegal war.

Let's try to learn something, anything, from the disastrous War on Terror.

Live Updates: U.S. and Israel Conduct Strikes on Iran

The United States and Israel launched a joint strike against Iran, an act of war without Congressional approval. This is a crime against the American people.

Trump is working with a genocidal regime to start another bloody war in the Middle East. Congress must vote to block further strikes now
