On June 8, 2026, I’ll speak on the floor of the House to honor and memorialize the brave crew of the 🇺🇸 USS Liberty who died and were wounded in an unprovoked attack by 🇮🇱 Israel on June 8, 1967. Catch my speech on @cspan.
Activists attempted to erect a statue of Marwan Barghouti in London’s Parliament Square, but police intervened. Barghouti, sometimes referred to as the ‘Palestinian Mandela’, has been imprisoned by Israel since 2002.
Trump "vetoing" the War Powers Resolution Act is Constitutionally irrelevant since only Congress can declare war, and their rejection of war in the context of Iran, makes any further military action by Trump against Iran an unconstitutional, and impeachable, act.
I pointed out last night that we would have to wait for confirmation on the ground when the sun came up to see if CENTCOM was telling the truth about knocking down every Iranian missile in Kuwait. This is why nobody can take *anything* we say at face value.
It’s both shameful and disheartening.
🇮🇷 Iran's IRGC Issues Statement on Missile Strikes on U.S. Bases in Kuwait
Iran says the barrage retaliates for an American attack on Qeshm island it framed as a hit on its NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY.
The IRGC called this only their INITIAL response and put on notice every government that lets its land or airspace be used against Iran. They warned any further aggression would draw a strike beyond all previous norms.
The time of "strike and run" has passed. The forces of tyranny must bear the dire consequences of their ignorance and reckless adventures.
It’s all talk. Just withhold foreign aid to Israel for a month and they’ll stop bombing their neighbors - instant peace, the Strait of Hormuz can be opened, and gas drops $2 a gallon. Israel has been, and continues to be, the biggest welfare recipient from American tax payers.
BARIS: A big problem with this White House is that nobody has the balls to tell Donald Trump that the country right now thinks that he’s Israel’s bitch. He looks like a pussy. The President looks weak. He looks like he’s Bibi’s bitch. That’s what the country thinks of him.
The biggest news today is not Israel threatening to bomb Beirut, or that Iran halted negotiations.
The biggest news is that Iran threatened to bomb Israel if they bomb Beirut
This is a glimpse of the 'new world order' in the middle east
An interesting timeline today.
Hezbollah inflicting huge losses on IOF in southern Lebanon and denying them an opportunity to establish fixed presence in invaded areas.
Israelis threaten Beirut if Resistance continues operations against northern settlements.
Hezbollah targets northern settlements.
Israelis say bombs incoming.
Iran suspends US talks, issues evacuation order for northern settlements. Warns strikes on the occupation entity will start if aggression escalates in Lebanon.
Trump runs to save face, says he talked with Netanyahu, claims he turned back Israeli occupation forces from going to Beirut (what.) and talks with Iran are advancing in “rapid” pace.
Israeli officials and journalists are calling Netanyahu a puppet, saying that they are occupied by the US, Ben Gvir adding that “it’s time to say no to the US.”
The Lebanese embassy in Washington: We made breakthrough in talks!
BREAKING: IRGC URGENT WARNING:
