Trump saying that all the sites have been completely obliterated and that there could be more strikes, without knowing whether those sites have truly been obliterated, and after his White House promised no more strikes through backchannels

That one person can drag us into a war — without consulting or even notifying Congress, our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary— is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?
The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.
This warmongering fucker needs to be impeached
And if you're offended by my language, consider that I'm a NYT-bestselling Trump biographer and presidential historian who's done more research on how Trump and Netanyahu planned this war for a decade than anyone writing in English
The president does not have the power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to our nation.
Where is Congress here?
Every time America is on the verge of greatness, we get involved in another foreign war.
There would not be bombs falling on the people of Israel if Netanyahu had not dropped bombs on the people of Iran first.
Israel is a nuclear armed nation.
This is not our fight.
Peace is the answer. 🙏
Brett Stephen has one of these truly stupid “never Trump was wrong, maybe Trump’ll be fine” columns in yesterday’s NYT. Same day the house GOP makes it clear (at Trump’s obvious behest) they’re going to investigate Liz Cheney and Trump sues a pollster for publishing an outlier. Sure guys, it’s all gonna be fine! Feel free to look away.
My heart is with Ukrainian people who keep on fighting for their country. There are so many Americans who ARE with you. And we will fight to get you the funding that you need to continue to defend your land. I am so sorry our corruption has contributed to your loss.
Former Republican Presidential Strategist @stuartpstevens: "If there's an element of the Republican party still out there that respects America's role in the world, they really need to step up here, and reign in Trump's worst instincts."
If Musk lied during his naturalization process, that’s grounds for deportation. Under Trump guidelines, that would include his children. https://t.co/iPNHvR7WtU
