Protest and defund all US offensive military actions against Iran. This unqualified President and DOD Secretary have once again usurped Trump’s constitutional authority, now in the worst way possible. Begin impeachment proceedings at once.
Top US army commander Major General (Ret.) Paul D. Eaton said this:
“Men who know more about war than Donald Trump ever will warned him repeatedly about the risks to American lives by starting a war with Iran. Indeed, Trump himself predicted casualties in his speech to America. The Constitution could not be more clear.”
“When launching wars of choice, especially with American lives in the balance, the president goes to Congress and Congress authorizes it. That did not happen, and these operations are blatantly unconstitutional.”
“More to the point, these operations seem to have no focus. Trump says they’re to keep Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, but just last year he said we ‘obliterated’ that program. It seems to be targeting missile sites, but Trump says it is to stoke regime change. A war without focus is a war with no tangible goals. And a war with no goals ends up a Forever War."
Please exercise your own constitutional responsibility to check this tyrant.
