This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.

For this administration, it’s not about doing good, it’s about looking good...even when American lives are on the line.

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

This administration is committing Watergate level crimes multiple times per weekβ€”and those are the ones we know about. It’s crazy to think about what else will come out after.

It’s absolutely essential these criminals are held responsible for their crimes. We must end elite impunity.

We are not ready for the shock to global supply and movement of goods that has been set off by this inanity. Think through $250 per barrel of crude.

Russia has got to be so delighted!

America Still Has a Mission in the World America’s greatest influence has never been domination. It has been demonstration.

After WWII we could have gone home and left the world to burn.

Instead America rebuilt Europe, defended trade routes, and helped inspire the fall of the Iron Curtain.

Because America has always had a mission.

One we're dangerously close to forgetting.

Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"

Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.

And he’s supposed to run America’s national security.

Has anyone pointed out to ICE agents that if they're arresting people solely to collect a bonus, they're not law enforcement officers. They're bounty hunters.

I look forward to all of them losing their jobs and being blacklisted from serving in law enforcement.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

So he’s surrendering without accomplishing any of his stated objectives while declaring victory. Exactly what we said would happen.

I cannot believe that the Whitehouse says "It doesn't really matter " that Russia is helping Iran target US military personnel. Is there anything, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING, that Putin can do where Donald Trump will criticise him?
He would rather see US troops die than upset his boss!😑😑

Americans are tired of Trump’s power grab.
No more chaos. No more broken promises. No more corruption.
Dems are ready to deliver real solutions.

β€œThe American military is tremendous. It is the greatest in the world.”

I applaud the members of our military and we have very expensive technology.

But organizations are only as good as their leaders, and we have some dumb people running our military. It shows.
