:jbhmm: What's the likelihood of China or Russia giving some equipment to Iran to replace the stuff that's gotten blown up?

Wait, did MTG sign onto that war powers resolution?
Nope.



Idiotic reasoning. The whole point of Massie's bill is to preemptively make it impossible for Trump to unilaterally attack Iran, the very thing Marge is decrying. Waiting for him to attack Iran before signing a bill saying he can't attack Iran is the type of thinking that we should expect from Jewish Space Lasers.

Does empty words or actions matter more?
Depends on how empty the words are and what the actions are. Marge's statement has been one of the loudest and explicit condemnations from inside MAGA-world of this push to bomb Iran and go to war. According to reporting, it's had a direct impact on Trump's calculus. Massie's bill is also pushing in the same direction, but is doomed to fail, so it's by definition an empty action from a legislative perspective, but it's being used to build popular consensus against the war, so it still has impact. Either way, I would expect AOC (and the Democrats) to have a stronger anti-war statement about this burgeoning crisis than Marge. It's surprising that they don't.

2:50AM in Israel and bomb shelter alerts going off across the entire country as Iran's missiles make contact. What happened to Israel having complete and total control over Iran's airspace? :jbhmm:

Because they’re allowing Trump to wreck his presidency by going to war with Iran.

Do you want them to be Machiavellian to regain power or do you want them to save Trump from himself?

Before you say Dems should do whatever is the best for humanity at this moment then one could argue allowing Trump to sabotage himself could be the best for humanity in the long run
