AOC: President Trump has threatened to use the US military to carry out acts of genocide against the Iranian people, innocent civilians. Up until today, he has done this on his own, a rogue actor. But today we vote on whether or not he will do this in the name of the American people. Congress must vote to exercise our power to stop this chaos or whether we sanction it. And we must vote to restrain it.
DON’T LET THIS STORY DIE.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
This is a national emergency.
It is very easy to become accustomed to Trump’s ravings, and laugh them off. That’s a dangerous thing to do.
When Trump states: “A whole civilization will die tonight,” he is threatening to commit genocide.
We can’t allow that to happen. Congress must end this war NOW.
