AOC says Trump's Iran strikes "clearly grounds for impeachment"

Fuck Fetterman that piece of shit.

Mussolini got dragged through the streets and him and his gf’s lifeless corpses were hung upside down for all of Rome to see.

Weird fact. Not sure why I’m thinking of it

If literally anyone thinks "it's okay that Trump bombed Iran, it was the right move"...

Then couldnt you just argue that "if it was such an obviously right move, wouldn't it have been easy to get congress to approve it?"

It's illogical to on one hand say it was the right thing to do, while ignoring the fact he did it without approval.

If it was so right, then approval would've been easy to get...?

Only a rag would quote Fetterman and credit him as a Democrat. He doesn't act or believe what he did when he was elected as a Democrat, his perspective is irrelevant.

he’s been impeached. what’s another one gonna do except distract everyone while he continues to war?

clearly grounds for impeachment

...add it to the pile, I guess.

But considering that impeachment is a legal process and that the current administration has zero respect for or inclination to follow the law, it's not like it'll accomplish shit. Dude needs to be deposed by those who have sworn to defend the constitution from domestic threats (the military) not run through some formal process.

Keep screaming impeachment when clearly that doesn't work.....he belongs in jail ya know for being a 34 count felon rapist seditionous traitor.

Cool. So since she's a member of the house of representatives, she must have initiated proceedings for impeachment, right?

Edit: I am happy to see that she did (or rather joined in with Al's), and it served a useful purpose of highlighting what posers the rest of the Dems are with their resounding votes against.

Israel is quite literally the world’s biggest terrorist nation state. The paper thin transparent spin tactics of Israel’s defenders would be amusing if the results of its terrorism wasn’t so horrifying.

Every day the Criminal in Chief commits impeachable crimes. Every. Day.

This is just the latest. But Congress is currently packed with illegitimate, undemocratically placed criminal cronies who face no accountability while shielding their criminal collaborators from accountability. So here we are.

Like Obama's action against Libya? 🤔

Look, I don't like Trump either, but this is the same bullshit threat Republicans dropped when Obama was President.

Shut the fuck up, Fetterman.

What are they gonna do about it? Lawsuit? Lmao

America and Israel are terrorist nations

I don’t disagree that bombing Iran puts us at risk of starting a war we don’t want to be involved in. However I think the public is too split on the matter to put majority support behind impeachment.

Conservative circles themselves appear divided with some saying the display of force was necessary and avoided direct conflict (minimizing operational costs), some saying the President is authorized to conduct these actions under the War Powers Resolution of 1973, and some voicing dissent or disapproval altogether of this action.

The War Powers Resolution will probably be the loophole that conservative outlets use to claim that Trump has done nothing wrong. I don’t know if there’s been an exercise of this authority without congressional approval that has lead to the targeted country declaring war as a result. If this were to happen, maybe there will be clear grounds to impeach, but I don’t think the public will display a majority support for it to happen.

I like how they pretend if he is not the president it wouldn’t be the same. They lied about WMD in Iraq and went to war in behalf of israel. And the did regime change in Libya, bomb and missions in Somalia and Yemen and not a single word from almost all congress about war crimes in gaza.

Let’s be honest, AIPAC controls all level of governments.

The only issue now, white MAGA, who actually hate Jew, or Russian propagandist are calling him out.

As soon as AIPAC find dirt on them or manage to buy them, the progressive movement will find themselves alone again.

One of like 1000 things he's done in the last few months that was either illegal, unconstitutional, "grounds for impeachment", or corrupt. 🥱

Kendrick Lamar "It's not enough." I want him removed and charged for all the harm and civil rights violations and war crimes. No President has ever been held accountable, So you can start with him.

They tried this before multiple times and it achieved nothing, you'd think they'd come up with a new idea.

The US is 😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴

No impeachments until they know they can get a conviction in the Senate, which is highly unlikely.

Besides, an impeachment only makes Peter Theil (Vance's leash holder) the president, then we're out of the frying pan and into the fire.

Freddie the Lobster says "Just Wait 'Til I Get These Fucking Rubber Bands Off". Same energy.

Does it even matter, American government and business is soaked deep in soggy dogshit.

It's not getting fixed by political discourse. If you're trying to do it that way than you aren't even playing the same game as the entity leading right now. Understand the game like mob boss and gang leaders. These politicians appear naive... We don't live in that world anymore and probably haven't for the past 30 years. It's the same feeling as seeing mainstream big religious people living in a dream world.

That's not a call for action or anything... It's just realistic observation.

Would love for something to happen, but we all know nothing will.

@MicroWave The problem is that even if the House impeaches AND the Senate convicts, we then have JD Vance as President. After Vance comes Mike Johnson. After Johnson comes Chuck Grassley. I went 17 levels down a succession list that includes Tulsi Gabbard and RFK, Jr. Impeachment doesn’t improve the leadership situation unless it includes Congress finally deciding to do its job and rein in the rogue Executive branch.

fuck Newsweek.

yeah I'm sure he'll add that one to the pile of "consequences that used to mean something" that he's racked up. great job team. this will be the threat of a threat of a threat of a stern talking to that shows him.

She keeps doing dumb things (add pronouns to profile, remove them. keep using "latinx"). And sadly I think she's the best we've got. Never trust a Christian. At least she seems to be anti-billionaire, which is better than Mayor Pete.

On the other hand, it would be on brand for America if he got impeached for the one thing he did right.

I think it depends. If Iran can be tenuously linked to AlQuaeda, then it's legal.

Edit, I'm downvoted by people who don't even know the laws of their country that have been (ab)used by every one of their presidents for the last 20 years...

He opened the Pandora Box... get to a shelter...

To skip congress, all they need is "something" they can use to say it is urgent. And they do have satellite activity showing a bunch of cargo trucks or what not. So they can hang thier hat on that and say it couldn't wait. That would make it pretty hard to impeach on frankly. So this call is just political theater.

Now as for should we have done it... well I can at least see both sides. Iran has been defiant in it's continued operation of it nuclear program. And all the "talks" haven't really done much. The bombing likely does slow them down at least. Of course the other side to that questions what right does the US have to say other countries can research nuclear anything.

So there really everything about this is in the gray area where logical arguments could be made and debated endlessly about.

Impeachment was never the real battle it was always about Senate driven consequences. In a Republican-controlled Senate, 'accountability' is a one-way street paved entirely for Democrats. Their majority exists to shield their own from justice while weaponizing procedure against the opposition. Until that imbalance is broken, consequences will remain a fantasy reserved only for the left.
