Adam Schiff is angry that Trump "capitulated" to Iran and tons of neocons and Israel Firsters are so shocked in response: "Oh wow, I can't believe I agree with Schiff."
The Democratic Party is not anti-war, nor anti-Israel, nor "soft on Iran." Those are idiot partisan narratives fed to you by Fox News and its ilk.
The Dem Party is filled with AIPAC-funded candidates and those who revere Israel above all. The Senate Dem leader Chuck Schumer is both of those things and favors war with Iran. Schiff is the same.

A soldier is “kidnapped” from a military base.
But a pediatrician is “detained” from inside a hospital.
CNN as appears in George Orwell’s new novels 2023, 2024, and 2025.
For years the right fearmongered about a tyrannical government, claimed they needed the 2nd amendment to protect themselves from a tyrannical government, and now it’s here, and attacking US citizens and our basic freedoms, they’re egging on that tyrannical government.
AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance
However, they are weaker than they look, and it is important that we remember that because what they rely on is the impression of power, the perception of inevitability in us giving up in advance
Donald Trump is at record levels of unpopularity in his tenure. The Republican house is at record levels of unpopularity. They are underwater across the board and they know it.
