Very tired of this scenario
- President starts a war but won’t call it a war. It’s a “military operation” 🤷♀️
- “Only Congress can declare war” we are reminded by experts
- Congress says, “Well, we’re in this now. Can’t back out, might as well see it through.” Votes to fund said military operation
Makes me want to get out my axolotl story again. Sadly, it was rejected 😭
Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.
So many things to be enraged by right now. I put this at the top of the heap.
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 don’t know why they got into this war. They’re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they don’t know how they’re getting out.
Senate Republicans just voted to block our War Powers Resolution & allow Trump's regime-change war of choice in Iran. Once again, they're contracting out their constitutional duties to Donald Trump, despite the will of their constituents.
Shameful.
