Trump Goes Psycho Over House War Vote!!

What you just witnessed there was the result of Donald Trump ordering the United States Senate, the Mag or Republicans in the United States Senate, along with John Fetterman, Democratic Senator from Pennsylvania, to vote against a war powers resolution, which would block Donald Trump's unlawful war against Iran.

So you saw right there, the Senate actually voted against this critical war powers resolution.

And now it goes to the House of Representatives where a vote takes place today. I want to discuss how important this is still. But in the Senate, the vote was 47 to 53. You had Republican ran Paul, voting with the Democrats on the 47 side. John Fetterman voted with the Republicans on that 53, voting against the war powers resolution

with the Mag or Republicans in the Senate and Fetterman giving up their role in Congress to block Donald Trump's unlawful war, absolutely pathetic. So now it goes to the House of Representatives, but this is very important, even though the Senate voted against it, it is critical that we see where all the Democrats stand. We see where all the Republicans stand when it comes to this unlawful war because this

is a deeply, deeply unpopular war. How unpopular is it? We'll just think about this fact right here.

The Iraq war started within approval rating of 70 percent.

The lowest it ever hit was 42 percent. Think about that staggering fact. This war right now started within approval of 41 percent, just think about that. And you have all the regulatory Republicans who are out there saying whatever the war started. So since it started, it would be unpatriotic for us to stop it now.

They're literally using that line like Susan Collins, who got that order from Donald

“Trump, and by the way, she's running for reelection in that Senate seat in Maine, remember that”

Maine. Here's what she said. She was very concerned about all of this. She said passing this resolution, the war powers resolution to block Donald Trump's unlawful war.

She says it would send the wrong message to Iran and to our troops. At this juncture, providing unequivocal support to our service members is critically important as this ongoing consultation by the administration with Congress. Now, Graham Platner, Democratic candidate for Senate in Maine, also a veteran said the following, "Well, what else can we do but support the war?

Are we really doing this already? This thing just ethings started. This is the worst version of why we stayed in Iraq for so long for the dumbest reasons and being done by the same people who clearly have learned nothing." And as Donald Trump panics, this is what he's ordering, "Magger Republicans to do.

Block the war powers resolution vote.

The war powers resolution vote is critical and frankly, we shouldn't even need a war

powers resolution because only Congress has the power to declare war, not the executive branch. The executive branch needs to seek the authorization of Congress. That's in our damn constitution but now of course the Magger Republicans got their message from the Trump regime and it's just out of Putin's playbook.

Don't call it a war. Just call it a special military operation.

“That's all you have to do and that's what the Magger Republicans' sick offence are doing.”

Like Magger Republican Congress member Mike Flood before the vote that's taking place today on the war powers resolution, Mike Flood says, "It's not a war. It's a significant military operation. You're playing this clip." "This war.

Well, I think the president has the authority. Could you consider it a war? It's a significant military operation." What about would Magger Mike Johnson is saying, "Well, Magger Mike Johnson got the order for Donald Trump to tell all of the magas in Congress that you will get politically

rewarded here by voting against the war powers resolution. The American people want this war." Magger Mike says because that's what Donald Trump's telling everybody here play this clip. "I trust the American people. I trust that they will evaluate all these things and they will understand that this administration

did the right thing.

“I think the reward it politically but if people get a bad taste in their mouth for what”

happened back here in the first part of the year in Iran, they just do. The weed we know in history were record, we did the right thing. I think passage of a war powers resolution right now would be a terrible, dangerous idea

It would knee-capper own forces and it would take the ability of the U.S. military and

the commander chief away from completing this critical mission to keep everybody safe."

Not only is Magger Mike willing to vote against the war powers resolution and demand that Magger Republicans in Congress be in lockstep with it, Magger Mike is ready to start taking all of our taxpayer dollars immediately and giving it to supplemental, supplemental assistance, supplemental for the war. Congress will pass a war-funding supplemental when appropriate, at least what $50 billion

is what we're hearing to provide additional funding for this war. Money could have gone to health care. That money could have gone to affordable housing. That money could have gone to numerous other things that actually would help the American people.

Now it's going to help us build more munitions for the war in Iran, which is an absolute disaster right now.

“As more service members are being killed, that's what they're doing.”

I'll bring you to the house floor where there was debate about the war powers resolution. Let me show you what the Democrats are saying, because I echo a lot of their sentiments right here, not because they're Democrats saying it, but because I don't believe in regime change wars without plans. I don't believe in sending our soldiers out there to Iran like that without any defined

mission. I don't like it. I despise it. It's a given. It's unconstitutional.

It's a lawful.

Well, here's what Democratic Congress member Castro has to say, play this clip.

Why now, will Secretary Rubio told us himself, he said that Israel was going to strike Iran, which would have triggered Iranian strikes on U.S. forces in the region, but rather than pick up the phone and tell Benjamin Netanyahu to stand down. The president of the United States buckled and decided to join their war. How is this America first?

For 25 years, a generation of American service members and their families have sacrificed so much because of regime change wars in the Middle East. President Trump is now asking yet another generation of Americans to sacrifice and the hope that this time it will go differently than Iraq, Afghanistan, or Libya. This is Donald Trump's war.

This is Benjamin Netanyahu's war. Your vote today will determine whether this is your war, too. I urge you to support this resolution.

“Our full words indeed, what about Democratic Congress member McGovern, play this clip?”

Mr. Speaker, nobody is defending the IOTO look. There is no love loss for a brutal government, the sponsors terror, and murders their people. Iran has been doing this for decades, everybody knows that. And so my question is this, why wasn't Donald Trump in a favor of regime change until

this weekend? Why did he campaign on swearing?

He would never send American kids to fight and die in the Middle East.

Republicans can't answer, because they were against war with Iran until exactly the second Donald Trump decided to go to war. And now they're all running around Saudi-like Neal Con lunatics. America can't take this level of gaslighting. I went to the class if I briefing.

There was no imminent threat. I guess unless Republicans want to redefine the word imminent to mean stretchy back 47 years. This whole thing is just so transparently built on lies.

“Republicans went from imminent threat to regime change to nooks back to imminent threat”

in the last 24 hours. I'll tell you what this is, Mr. Speaker. This is a rack 2.0. I still remember the lies about WMDs. I voted against that war, too.

At least George Bush had the decency to lie to people's face. And by the way, no congressional vote can legitimize this, because there was no imminent threat. There was no UN Security Council resolution. So this war is illegal no matter what you want to call it.

And it's not Donald Trump's kids that will have to go fight and die for their graph dodging dad. It's not the children of the billionaire Epstein class. It's working class kids who are going to put their lives on the line. Shame on Republicans.

I'm sick of this BS, we're spending billions of dollars a day on a war and we can't even get Republicans to join us to expand healthcare in America. How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that.

I hope the defense contract of money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of time to expire. And I'll give credit where credit's due to Republicans.

Thomas Massey clearly articulating why this war is unlawful.

And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer as to why we launched this preemptive war.

The president says we had to strike first because an Iranian strike was imminent.

Meanwhile, the Department of Defense conceded there was no evidence of an imminent Iranian strike. Some told us this war was about nuclear weapons. But six months ago, we were assured our last strike on Iran decimated their nuclear program. So which is it?

“I think the most candid answer came from the Secretary of State who told the press that Israel”

forced our hand and dragged us into this war again. And that truth is the very reason why it is Congress that must decide war. If American lives are to be risked and American blood is to be shed, that decision must be debated and voted on by the representatives of the American people. And that debate is meant to be arduous.

And that vote is meant to be hard.

I have a theory. I think my colleagues don't want to go on record because we have a terrible track record of meddling in the Middle East. They don't want their name associated with this when it doesn't turn out well. The Congress cannot be bothered with its constitutional duty because for many in this chamber

it's easier to simply allow someone else's sons and daughters to be sent to combat without their vote. And to be clear, we aren't even here to declare war today. All we're voting on is a war powers resolution to reassure the Constitution that Congress must decide questions of war.

And if Congress wants war, then the speaker should hold a vote to declare it.

See terms for details. And you know, Democratic Congress member Raskin is going to step in and make some great points here. Let's play this clip.

“I think the speaker in the ranking member, yes, use all lawful and constitutional means.”

I heard one of our colleagues across the aisle just say, well, yes, Article 1, Section 8, class 11 does give Congress the exclusive plenary comprehensive power to declare war. And not the president and we could be debating it, but the president's already taken us to war. So it's too late.

It would undermine the cause for us to debate it. What a humiliating self-defeating argument for a member of the Article 1 branch of Congress to be making. Don't you understand that destroys our power to declare war? If any president can plunge us into a war and thereby defeat our exclusive plenary

power over it, the framers weren't fooling around when they did that. And they knew that the kings were constantly plunging their people into wars of deception, conceit, plunder, imperial averist, fantasy, constantly the kings were doing that. They didn't want to leave it up to one person to decide whether or not to send a whole country into war and to put our sons and daughters and risk that is an awesome solemn responsibility

that must be vested in the representatives of the people, all the people, which is why both

So whether you think this war is the most brilliant strategic breakthrough and moral cause

since World War II, or you think it's an absolute strategic blunder built on lies like the last wars in Iraq, or the war in Afghanistan, which costs thousands of lives and more than trillion dollars, wherever you are on that policy question, can we not agree as members of the article one branch that it's up to us? We've got a vote on it.

We've got it debate on it. I'm hearing very interesting good arguments all over the spectrum on this.

“That's why it's reposed in the representatives of the people to decide it.”

Not Donald Trump, not J.D. Vance, not Tulsi Gabbard or anybody else in the executive branch. It's our decision. Everybody on this resolution, now back to Republican Congress member Massey, let's play it.

The 1973 War Powers Resolution states, plainly, that the president may only introduce U.S. armed forces into hostilities, pursuant to three conditions, either one declaration of war, two specific statutory authorization, or three national emergency created by an attack upon the United States, none of those conditions exist today. Iran is not attacked the United States Congress is not declared war and Congress is not

granted specific statutory authorization. Beyond the constitutional question, here lies an even more important one. Why are we going to war with Iran? We owe our military service members a clear mission. And American families in my district want to know, how is this going to help them pay for

groceries?

“How does this make them any safer in their schools or in their neighborhoods?”

How does this help them pay for housing? Have we learned nothing from the laundry list of wars and regime change experiments? We sparked across the Middle East that have racked up a total of at least $8 trillion of debt in Iraq, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, a sustained war with Iran will not stabilize the region.

It's already ignited the region. It will radicalize new generations of terrorists and it will send more swarms of refugees into Europe and the United States. More from mass the right here, let's play it. And it will send more swarms of refugees into Europe and the United States.

Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader from a region notorious for radical Islamist and the United States in Israel turned him into a martyr. And in the process of doing so, we've already expanded billions of dollars and more solemnly

six American families must now lay to rest their sons and daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer as to why we launched this preemptive war.

And here's what Graham Platner, again, a veteran, he says he's what he has to say.

And he goes, he's ready for the tendency to remain as you know, against Susan Collins. And he's like, you know, what? We need an entirely new war powers resolution, frankly, a new war powers act rather, which an automatically, all of these wars should be declared unlawful before they even start. We shouldn't even have to pass any type of resolution we should just be able to declare

it unlawful unless you get converse as approval. Play this clip. We need a truly reformed war powers act where we really pull the power back.

“No more 48 hours of combat operations where you have to have to notify Congress.”

No more 60 days of combat operations before you have to prove to Congress that you should have gone to war in the first place. No. A warranty. We need to know why military forces use right off the bat and it needs to be approved

by Congress right off the bat.

Yeah, here's what Democratic Senator Adam Schiff had to say on TV.

Let's play it. You joined all but one of your Democratic colleagues today in voting for a war powers resolution that would have constrained the president's war on Iran that he's launched. All the Republicans saved for Rand Paul, but against it, Rand Paul voting with Democrats, John Fetterman, voting with Republicans.

Why did you vote that way today? Well, I introduced the resolution along with Tim Cain, Senator Schumer, and Rand Paul. For the reason that we shouldn't be in this war number one, this is a war that was not brought on by any imminent threat from Iran. We've heard all kinds of varying explanations for why Rubio says we were threatened.

He says it's because Israel was going to attack and they would attack us. Iran, that is, if Israel attacked and then the president says no, that wasn't hit at all. And then you hear Pete Higgs says something different. And Whitkov says no, this was about them potentially getting the bomb.

But second, because constitutionally, this is unlawful.

You can't commit the nation to war without seeking the approval of Congress.

“It's one of the most important powers that we have.”

It has afterfied. And if we're going to allow war like this to go on where we've already lost US service members and essentially not make a peep about it in Congress, then we're telling this president and any future president, you can make war whenever you want, wherever you want, for whatever reason you want, and Congress will not step in to put any constraint on you.

That's just dangerous to the American people and to our troops. I agree also here with Democratic Senator Mark Kelly. I've said this on the show before you pardon me, say it, which is you can literally pick a random group of people in Washington, DC or anywhere. And they would do a much better job than the Trump regime.

Like way better than what this Trump regime is compounding the worst decisions and making it worse based on Donald Trump's malicious and demented pathology. It's like they, he instantly gravitates to the worst possible decision making. And then makes it catastrophic. And then just this is why he's bankrupted everything in his life, most of the companies

he's running his bankrupted because this is what this demented individual does. You're playing this clip of Senator Kelly. You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in Washington, DC, just a random group and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now with this.

They don't have a goal. There's no strategic plan. There's no timeline and what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans and no rationale for how this is helping the American people. And as Donald Trump's chief propaganda's Caroline Levitt was saying today, why did Donald

Trump honor the military to strike what it did, why did that happen? Well, he had a good feeling. Just he is feels you had a good feeling, you know, those feels couldn't tell the American people what the feeling was backed up by facts, but you know, he had a feeling the feeling

that Israel was going to attack Iran first and Iran would then attack the United States.

So we had to attack first for Israel.

“That's what that's the move here play this clip important was that information in the”

present making the decision to strike where and when he did. I think it was important with respect to the timeline. But I think the president prior to that phone call had a good feeling that the Iranian regime was going to strike United States assets in our personnel in the region. And then you have other magas senators like Ron Johnson from Wisconsin, and he's out there

saying, you know what, this is an opportunity and opportunity for geopolitical change. Isn't that what you want America? Oh, yeah, healthcare, no, what you want education, no, you want housing, no, you want things to be more affordable, no, you want geopolitical change. Well, I'll tell you what Ron Johnson from Wisconsin, the geopolitical change going down

right now is crippling America's strength, weakening America's power, if not obliterating you know, this does not make us look strong, this makes us look weak and pathetic.

And right now, we we've never actually looked weak lately.

Here's what Johnson says. Let's play it. Because of what is happening now and Iran is, is more serious. So we're more vulnerable because Biden left the border open and they still hold up DHS funding.

And on the issue of Iran, Senator, the Senate failed to pass Senator Cain's war power as a resolution. You voted against it, Senator Paul was the only Republican who voted for it. Explain your decision on this because there are, you know, there are many in Magaland.

“I think still who are either not supportive of this war are worried about what this will”

do to the Trump agenda or or flat out think we had no right to go in there. Iran has been at war with America for 47 years. It's responsible, it has a blood on the hands of thousands of American soldiers, American citizens. They've been a menace.

This is an opportunity. It's not risk free, it's not guaranteed, but this is an opportunity to change geopolitics for the better, the best opportunity in my lifetime. So I hope for success. I support the president in a tough decision.

Again, there's nothing guaranteed about this. You know, the IRGCS, 200,000 members, they've got this security force, 600,000.

Iranian people, but this is a real opportunity.
