I am ok with the leaders’ statements in a general context. But read further. The more convincing argument regarding this situation is lack of support for a resolution offered last year that would have required Trump to get Congressional approval before the attack.

...and both these men should be able to immediately nip this in the bud by talking about the absurdity of people who aren't facing the rockets and shells to talk about other people being "cowardly". "Congress has a constitutionally proscribed role in our government, and part of that is to not allow any president to simply put our military in danger on whims and questionable reasons. This administration has not shown itself to be trustworthy to any degree in matters big or small, so it's even more important that they be held to account. It's our job to do what we can to keep Americans from dying on the basis of a lie".

Congress to vote on this, but Johnson has been blocking it for over a week.

The only thing this is doing is what these same people have been doing, dividing Democrats, and giving republicans full control of Congress, and two terms of a psychopath in the White House.

Typical divisive bullshit.

We are coming up to midterms, and it never fails.

Maybe we can add the Matt Taibi, Glenn Greenwalds, Jill Steins, etc. into that mix and see if this helps us win the midterms.

We are in this situation because NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE VOTED FOR VP HARRIS with the same detractors who always seem to make their entrance at critical times. 2000, 2016, and 2024.

more important...I wonder why. I have found Jeffries to be a big disappointment...both seem to to have a desire to work with the Evil GOP...I don't. And Jeffries faces a primary this year. Any Democrat that votes for this war needs to be primaried as soon as possible. They do not represent us as they should.

Bullshit.

with little or no opposition from anyone in Congress, right or left.

Just because you don't have the votes to stop something doesn't mean you should stand by and say nothing.

Oh bullshit. What a fucking stupid comment.

"Schumer (D-NY)—who infamously worked to defeat the 2015 nuclear deal that Trump later abandoned during his first White House term, setting the stage for the current crisis..."

That is a dirty lie. PIGGY DID THIS. He destroyed President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran because he's a bottomless pit of racist hate, worthlessness and corrupt filth.

OMFG I am so GD sick of the Dem bashing.

Who's their audience? The mind reels.

wonder?

If they want enthusiastic, passionate voters they need to have some fire. I’m sick of these stoic, measured responses.

They helped usher in this shitshow with rhetoric like this.

So far, I don’t see any indication of that happening. A sign that an overwhelming majority don’t think it important enough to make an effort.

Referring to Schumer as having done something "infamously" is clearly bashing.

Pointing out Jeffries getting "campaign cash" is both disrespectful and clearly bashing.

I'm just pointing out that you're raising ire against our two leaders in Congress. I'm a liberal. I live freedom of speech.

I will say I think it's a bad idea to attack our two main elected leaders as they try to work their way through a difficult situation. We're not going to be able to get good leaders if we keep jumping their cases after every word they say.

it and can't fight back.
