Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, ripped Donald Trump for his military attack against Iran on Saturday, saying the move is “absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

Ocasio-Cortez ripped the president’s action on X, formerly Twitter, and wrote, “The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

On the other hand, Senator John Fetterman, a Pennsylvania Democrat, came to Trump’s side and wrote on X, “As I’ve long maintained, this was the correct move by @POTUS. Iran is the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism and cannot have nuclear capabilities. I’m grateful for and salute the finest military in the world.”

      Now, I wonder if that weird fact you are thinking of can have you picturing Donald Trump being dragged through the streets with JD Vance and him and his vice president’s lifeless corpses being hung upside down for all the United States to see, in response to him giving the order to bomb Iran without congressional approval. And who here would like to see that actually happening.

      It was Milan. Though I’m sure the people of Rome were more than welcome to go see his bespatted husk.
