US Strike Iran’s Nuclear Sites

Whelp, so much for two weeks

One thing about Trump, he is not predictable, which is a good thing since the enemies of the US can’t play us

Trump: U.S. Completed ‘Successful Attack’ on Iranian Nuclear Sites

President Donald Trump revealed that the United States had just completed a “very successful attack on” three nuclear sites in Iran, such as Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.

“We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. “All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!”

Obviously, this is making the Democrats and TDS infused Republicans upset

(CNN) GOP Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky took to X to say, “This is not Constitutional.”

Democratic Rep. Sara Jacobs of California had a similar sentiment, saying on X, “Trump’s strikes against Iran are not only unconstitutional, but an escalation that risks bringing the U.S. into another endless and deadly war.”

Massie is such a disappointment. But, how is it un-Constitutional? They do not say. Did they say the same when Biden and Obama were bombing targets? Did Trump break them so bad that they want to protect Iran?

(NY Times) Some members of Congress criticized the Trump administration for not seeking congressional approval before U.S. troops engaged in attacks against Iran. “This is not Constitutional,” said Representative Thomas Massie, Republican of Kentucky, who was a co-sponsor of a resolution trying to block any military action in Iran without Congress authorizing it.

Writing directly in response to Trump’s statement, Representative Jim Himes, a Democrat from Connecticut on the Intelligence Committee, said, “According to the Constitution we are both sworn to defend, my attention to this matter comes BEFORE bombs fall. Full stop.”

Did Massie do this for when Biden was attacking the Houthis? By the Constitution and law the president can engage in limited attacks and then inform Congress. They cannot start a full war. For one thing, you have the War Powers Resolution of 1973. Massie seems to be the only Republican in Congress whining, but, there are many pundits on Twitter having a hissy fit. I like this reply to Massie’s tweet (which also got retweeted by Rashida Tlaib)

Nothing about the autopen’s four years was constitutional. You stayed quiet.

Nothing about USAID fraud back to Congress was constitutional. You stayed quiet.

Nothing about Biden’s open border was constitutional. you stayed quiet.

Nothing about taxpayer money being laundered through NGO’s back to the spouses of Congressmen was constitutional. You stayed quiet.

Nothing about Ukraine funding laundered back to members of Congress bothered you either.

Nothing about J6 seemed to bother you.

Nothing about the weaponization of government against conservatives bothered you.

But Trump… every move is called out by you. I do not remember you being this active vocally calling out Biden at all. That was the most unconstitutional 4 years we have ever experienced in this nation’s history. And yet, you stayed silent with small push back on minor budgetary issues.

As far as more Democrats, other than Fetterman, they’ll all be whining. Trump is supposed to speak at 10pm Saturday night, so, I’m sure I’ll update this post in the am.

Oh, and I really intended to ignore the Dem responses, because they are what you expect. Except, I ran across this

She literally calls it illegal without congressional authorization, then cites the actual Congressionally passed resolution that makes it legal. Fucktard.
