Mamdani, Schumer, AOC battling for most idiotic – Latest News
Boy is the competitors stiff for most idiotic response to Operation Midnight Hammer.
NYC lefty “it boy” Zohran Mamdani is one clear chief of the pack: “Donald Trump ran for president promising to end wars, not start new ones,” the failed rapper posted on X.
And: “Today’s unconstitutional military action represents a dark, new chapter in his endless betrayals that now threaten to plunge the world deeper into chaos.”
Wrong on just about each depend: As the president famous Saturday evening, Iran’s been waging struggle on our nation because it seized the hostages back in 1979, by way of its sponsorship of the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, its provision of IEDs to slaughter our troops in Afhganistan and Iraq and on to its efforts to assassinate Trump.
By ending off Tehran’s nuclear program, the prez moved decisively to finish Israel’s strikes on Iran by eliminating their goal.
And defanging the monsters who run the Islamic Republic is a blow towards chaos that opens the door to a brighter future for all the area.
Naturally, Mamdani’s less-radical rivals for Democrats’ mayoral nomination felt obliged to additionally condemn Trump, with Andrew Cuomo (Dems’ “it boy” of 2020!) whining about how “Trump went about this without consulting Congress, without consulting the normal congressional officials” blah-blah-blah.
That’s the identical strategy embraced by most national Democrats, together with ex-Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Minority Leaders Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer.
Which is past pathetic, as all of them are on document praising President Barack Obama’s varied unilateral, left-Congress-in-the-dark actions from doing “regime change” in Libya by taking out Moammer Khadafy to his a number of drone assassinations of US residents akin to Anwar Al-Awlaki.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez mainly sits in the identical camp as Mamdani (her most popular mayoral candidate, of course) with the added filip of claiming Trump’s actions are “absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”
In reality, the US strikes had been plainly legal, coated (like Obama’s) by Congress’ open-ended authorizations for presidential drive back in 2003 — resolutions that neither occasion has sought to repeal even when each Houses of Congress are held by the presidential-opposition occasion.
Yes, it’d be great if the House and Senate had been prepared to do their duties in issues of struggle and peace, however as an alternative they’ve chosen to not — and to simply carp concerning the different workforce’s management.
This additionally means Trump had no duty to transient high Democrats upfront of the strikes — and that no phrase of the approaching assaults leaked suggests he was clever to close them out.
We definitely wouldn’t trust the likes of Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) to put the protection of Americans headed into a struggle zone above his partisan need to undermine something and all the things Donald Trump is doing.
Let us not neglect the worldwide contestants within the fool sweepstakes: UN Secretary-General António Guterres (final seen thundering that Israel’s strikes on Iran may “ignite a fire no one can control”) denounced Trump’s “dangerous escalation” as “a direct threat to international peace and security” earlier than droning on about supposed “rules of international law.”
That is: He’s nonetheless pretending Iran isn’t one of the principle threats to different nations’ security, and that stopping it’s someway an “escalation.”
Russia and China of course condemned the US strikes, however all ought to observe that that’s actually the least they may do to assist their ally Iran.
We guess British Prime Minister Keir Starmer can characterize the numerous fools of Western Europe within the competitors, including to the refrain of clueless handwringing over the supposed “risk of escalation” at the same time as he admitted Iran’s nuke program posed a “grave threat to international security” and known as for “a diplomatic solution to end this crisis.”
OK: Tehran ought to finish the disaster by calling it quits on attacking Israel so the Israelis don’t need to keep taking out Iranian missile launchers and so forth., and by foreswearing any response to the US strikes; it definitely shouldn’t attempt to close the Strait of Hormuz to world transport if it doesn’t need half its Navy sunk again (as was its destiny the final time it tried that stunt).
No one else can or ought to offer the Islamic Republic a damned factor besides what’s been on the desk from the beginning: Verifiably finish your nuke quest, stop attacking different nations (keep in mind its completely unprovoked strikes on Israel final yr) and different nations will depart you alone.
It’s all clear as crystal, even when so many idiots insist on pretending in any other case.
