So Eyeliner Vance says we are not at war with Iran. Maybe he ought to ask Iran their take on it? What a colossal evil inept mockery of a government this is. Announcing a military strike without Congressional approval via tweet on the presidents privately owned media outlet??!! Every single Republican including Fetterman need to be gone ASAP. And this may include some Dems if they donβt act.
1950-1953: Korean War (Truman): President Harry S. Truman sent U.S. troops to Korea as part of a United Nations force without seeking a declaration of war from Congress, calling it a "police action." This was a pivotal moment in the expansion of presidential war powers.
1958: Lebanon Crisis (Eisenhower): President Dwight D. Eisenhower sent Marines to Lebanon to protect U.S. interests and support the government.
1960s-1970s: Vietnam War (Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon): Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, and Richard Nixon significantly escalated U.S. involvement in Vietnam without a formal declaration of war. While Congress passed resolutions like the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, it was not a declaration of war, and presidential actions often went beyond even those authorizations, leading to the War Powers Resolution of 1973.
The War Powers Resolution of 1973 was passed over
President Nixon's veto, aiming to reassert congressional authority. It requires the president to report to Congress within 48 hours of introducing armed forces into hostilities and generally limits such deployments to 60 days (with a 30-day withdrawal period) unless Congress authorizes continued action or declares war. However, presidents have often disputed its constitutionality or interpreted its provisions narrowly.
1983: Grenada (Reagan): President Ronald Reagan ordered an invasion of Grenada to protect American citizens and restore order.
1986: Libya Airstrikes (Reagan): Reagan ordered airstrikes against Libya in response to alleged terrorist attacks.
1989: Panama (G.H.W. Bush): President George H.W. Bush ordered the invasion of Panama to apprehend Manuel Noriega and protect American lives.
1992-1993: Somalia (G.H.W. Bush, Clinton): U.S. troops were deployed to Somalia for humanitarian relief, escalating into combat under the Clinton administration.
1990s: Bosnia and Kosovo (Clinton): President Bill Clinton authorized military intervention in Bosnia (1995) and the air campaign in Kosovo (1999) as part of NATO operations, without a specific congressional declaration of war.
2001: Afghanistan (G.W. Bush): Following the 9/11 attacks, President George W. Bush launched military operations in Afghanistan. While Congress passed an Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), it was not a formal declaration of war.
2003: Iraq (G.W. Bush): The invasion of Iraq was launched under an AUMF passed by Congress, but again, not a formal declaration of war.
2011: Libya (Obama): President Barack Obama authorized military intervention in Libya as part of a NATO-led operation, citing humanitarian concerns, without specific congressional authorization.
2014-Present: Operations against ISIS (Obama, Trump, Biden): Presidents have continued military actions against ISIS in Iraq, Syria, and other areas, often relying on existing AUMFs from 2001 and 2002 or claims of self-defense.
2017 & 2018: Syria Airstrikes (Trump): President Donald Trump ordered missile strikes against Syrian government targets in response to chemical weapon attacks.
2020: Killing of Qasem Soleimani (Trump): President Trump ordered a drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani in Iraq, citing self-defense.
Recent Actions (Biden): President Joe Biden has ordered strikes against Iran-backed militant groups in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, and in the Red Sea, also citing self-defense and existing AUMFs.
Like the water he claimed to have sent to LA to put out fires that ended up nowhere nearby after the fires ended, Trump exploits the media and public opinion nonstop with utter bullshit and rarely is it even factually questioned. Who are the masked men posing as ICE? People voted for a reality TV star con artist businessman and here we are.
Ay ay ay, I live in Missouri. I wonder who knew when these bomber planes took off and for where. Did the people around the base say "damn!, where are those things going?" I feel guilty even though I had nothing to do with this creature passing for human and his decisions. Or, coercions? Netanyahu, I suppose? God/ dess help us all. This could start big problems for us humans and other beings, including the plants and planet.
Gawd what a dolt. "Last, I want to thank God." Barf. Hope all the followers of Charlie Kirk, Joe Rogan, that Tate dude and etal can go boots on the ground like they always wanted to. Oh and all the J6'rs, proud boys, white supremacists who hate brown people, and Kyle Rittenhouse himself can arm up, and kick some ass in Iran. MERICA! gag.
The members of Congress who cover for him and his unilateral decision to take the U.S. into war are also war criminals. Not buying their stupid bullshit or Trump's.
As a former military spouse, families and contractors and civilians work there too. Trump has turned the world against us, so no one is going to be helping us out.
They kept kegseth out of the loop and now they're saying, "We kept it covert!" So keeping your plan from the secdef (although probably a good strategy) is a good thing for the country!
I try my best to keep you all up to date. With crazy off the wall shit that happens after hours, I deem it necessary to update your email with it. Dont hate me.
Does no one remember Wag The Dog? Need a distraction, start a war
Oh of course. Who can forget that disaster.

Agreed.
If it's unconstitutional then explain:

And all this legitimizes this ?
No it doesnβt.

Everyone, take care, spread love

Jared Kushner can fix it if anybody can. lol
This war is about wealth transfer without informed consent.
No reporters on the ground, in the sky or in the White House are willing to break ranks and tell the truth.
Gawd what a dolt. "Last, I want to thank God." Barf. Hope all the followers of Charlie Kirk, Joe Rogan, that Tate dude and etal can go boots on the ground like they always wanted to. Oh and all the J6'rs, proud boys, white supremacists who hate brown people, and Kyle Rittenhouse himself can arm up, and kick some ass in Iran. MERICA! gag.
My chickens are more likely to . . .
This is fucked up on so many levels. Just watched his speech on CNNβ¦.π€¬
The members of Congress who cover for him and his unilateral decision to take the U.S. into war are also war criminals. Not buying their stupid bullshit or Trump's.
I fear for our service members in region who are now going to be at risk.
As a former military spouse, families and contractors and civilians work there too. Trump has turned the world against us, so no one is going to be helping us out.
I bet they had no intel.
I know for a fact the B2's left MO on June 20th headed to Guam
Maybe he didnβt take his meds , or maybe he did !
One person after another from Congress is saying we did and we didnβt bomb Iran !
Somebody please call someone in Iran thatβs close to the announced targets and tell us what they do or donβt see .
Yes. Nothing like trusting " Israel's " enemy to learn the truth. Netanyahu is a manipulative whiner looking for more money.
A whiner , isnβt that being exceptionally kind??
Yes, it is kind, but I frequently get censored and blocked.
Thatβs too bad. Just as many puzzling Israel defenders as clear pro-Palestinians. Lots of stone hardened hearts out there!!
Make sense.
They kept kegseth out of the loop and now they're saying, "We kept it covert!" So keeping your plan from the secdef (although probably a good strategy) is a good thing for the country!
He's extra -- thats for sure.
Iran's phones are on answering mode response.
I needed to read this just like you typed it.
I try my best to keep you all up to date. With crazy off the wall shit that happens after hours, I deem it necessary to update your email with it. Dont hate me.
You are so right. Not only is dump a disaster and insane but the denying about truth by everyone that is part of the cult is terrifying.
