This is treasonous! No war without congressional approval

Where are the Voices of Our Congressional leaders? I hear crickets!

Call it what it is — The Epstein War.

Lynette, not to nitpick, but not everything that is bad for the U.S. is treason. And treason is not the only action an American can take that is worthy of universal condemnation, impeachment, conviction, and removal from office. If you read the definition of treason, I think you will find that people apply that term far too loosely. For example, what Trump did on January 6, 2021 was not, as many claimed, treason. It was insurrection, which is every bit as bad.

War without congressional approval has become the norm. The Congress gave up their control over declaring war long ago. So, I don't think you will find a president being "charged" with starting a war without congressional approval. The House and Senate could begin to act to reclaim their constitutional powers, but they almost certainly won't.

Republicans are completely in the tank for Trump and Democrats aren't considered weak for no reason. Schumer and Jeffries have been worthless. This is an opportunity for them to stand up and regain some integrity. I sincerely doubt they will. Both will want to make sure that donations from AIPAC are secure above what is best for the country or their constituents. I would love to have them prove me wrong. I'm not worried at the moment that there is much chance of that happening.

How about displaying/selling/trading national defense secrets for cash and investment opportunities? Would you consider that an act of treason?

As far as I know, the last time Congress declared war was 1941. I’m sure something must’ve happened to make them get off their asses and do something. According to the Supreme Court, he doesn’t need congressional approval for anything.

The last time the United States declared war was 1941. Yet we’ve been in a pile of them.

Everything with Trump is a distraction from Epstein.

Beverly Richards-Smith's avatar

I suspect, in addition to distracting from the Epstein files and supporting Israel (and making Gaza safe for his "Riviera of the Middle East"), Trump's motive is the same as for kidnapping Venezuelan President Maduro -- to take control of Iran's oil.

I agree with you Joan

Bill Riley's avatar

So he starts The Epstein War.

Joan MacLeod's avatar

Trump tears up anything that Obama or Biden did to make Americans lives better and safer 😡 😡

Joan MacLeod's avatar

I subscribe to you plus many others because it's the place to get the truth plus news that mainstream media don't cover.

Joan MacLeod's avatar

I agree with you Mike about Ukraine. I wonder what Russia thinks about this as it's an Iran allies.

Joan MacLeod's avatar

I thought the Democrats cheated in 2020 or it was China or Venezuela that interfered.

Trump ran on every lie he could assimilate in order to avoid going to prison, none of his promises were real, everything he’s doing is for personal enrichment and for his freedom not for the betterment of the nation or the world. He knew he was going to prison, he’s using that grievance to grift and steel intake as much as he can while he is in office.

Trump does not have an end plan nor understand consequences. Iran has secret cells all over the world including the USA. This war will come to our homeland.

I blame this Republican administration for this. They have no spine.

Jack Stapleton's avatar

Congress needs to take an immediate impeachment vote, impeach him, and drag him out of our White House and end this madness and begin the healing.

Monica Grover's avatar

The incompetence is staggering‼️‼️‼️🤬🤬

Debbie Madrid's avatar

It’s dangerous to allow him to stay in power, He needs to be removed ASAP,

Wendy Irwin's avatar

Why should anyone have to be drafted for him? He was a draft dodger he can’t hardly expect any of our young “men” go into any kind of a conflict when he didn’t!!!!

Wendy Irwin's avatar

Plus he campaigned on NO MORE WARS. He’s LIED again

Hope Crescione's avatar

If his mouth is moving, he's lying! People should have learned that from his first term!

Monica Grover's avatar

So exhausted from this mutha f’er and his mob regime🤬🤬🤬🤬

Jack Stapleton's avatar

Do you really think our democracy will hold until 2029?

Diana's avatar

We only need until Nov 2026. BTW, I don't think it will take that long based on what he did today. He did exactly what our other "allies" told him not to do. I truly believe that the only reason Kushner was there was to make some really good money deals for himself. Why would anyone send a grossly unqualified person to negotiate a deal with Iran if it weren't for personal gain?

Veronica Best's avatar

You Guys Run You’re brilliant informative I’m probably wrong BUT Schumer and Hakeem probably have an attitude cuz they were screaming with their hair on for Vote for Kamala Harris and now you expect a miracle when they are in the minority We New Yorkers told Y’all about Trump since the Apprentice now people are now in shock that he’s a GRIFT MASTER LONG SORRY

Monica Grover's avatar

Jeffries and Schumer need to go‼️‼️ we need dems that have their balls back & will speak up loudly!

Debbie Madrid's avatar

We don’t need American politicians loyal to Israel at the expense of America, Stop AIPAC whoring for Israel

Eva Seifert's avatar

There were supposed to be hearings and votes on Iran in the House this past week. Johnson said no, and sent them home. Johnson is POS's pet and won't do anything that will offend POS. POS and his pals have bought Johnson body and soul.

Beverly Richards-Smith's avatar

Jeffries should NOT become Speaker when the Democrats take control of the House. He's been weak as minority leader. If both Trump and Vance are impeached, the Speaker becomes president! We need someone with some cojones in charge of the House and, if it comes to pass, as president -- someone who will take action to undo the damage Trump has done and pass legislation to prevent this happening again. That must include a way for Congress and SCOTUS to enforce the law and court rulings.

NICE OF TRUMP TO BE OKAY WITH OTHER FOLKS DYING -- HE'S HERE AT HOME WITH A BUNKER IF IRAN LAUNCHES NUKES

Eva Seifert's avatar

There are NO NUKES. Anything to help Bibi and his pals. Anything to forget the Epstein files.

Karen Sampson Hudson's avatar

Where is Congress? The Republicans lackeys need to wake up and join the Democrats to impeach Trump! He is bombing children to get oil, and to distract us from the Epstein files, where he appears many, many thousands of times. Where is Congress? Mike Johnson, fake Christian, Jesus doesn't know you!

Hope Crescione's avatar

THIS IS ANOTHER DISTRACTION FROM THE EPSTEIN FILES!!! He doesn't care how many people die if his crimes remain secret.

To you, Mike....wishes for a quick recovery!
