I'm not going to post any more CIA talking heads, but there's a raft of them and quite a number of former spooks I don't trust are saying this whole Iran idea was a bad idea.
Democratic politicians like Jeff Merkley are saying Trump's actions are wholely unconstitutional.
They are chaffing at the idea that Congress was not consulted.
While I do believe Democrats wouldn't have done something so wreckless as Trump, I fully expected a Democrat to try Iran.

#OR Senator Jeff Merkley and #OR6 Congresswoman Andrea Salinas have introduced legislation in the #USSenate and #USHouse to give legal tools to victims to sue #ICE and #CBP when their agents violate people’s civil and Constitutional rights.
This is needed but we shouldn’t leave loopholes to be exploited. There should be an easy-to-access remedy for individuals to sue ANY federal law enforcement agency that violates their rights.
Washington, D.C. – Today, Oregon’s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley and U.S. Representative Andrea Salinas (OR-06) introduced new legislation to hold U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) liable for violating individuals’ constitutional rights.

I just emailed my senators with the following message:
“I’m writing today to urge you NOT to vote to end the federal government shutdown without an agreement to extend the #ACA subsidies for at least a year. Despite how the shutdown affects me personally, I think it’s VITAL that Democrats stay strong and united against the cruelty and corruption of the Trump regime. Thank you!”
Decadent rebellion or
Presidential #authoritarianism ?
The President is crafting the vision of the country instead of the House, not just executing it, Merkley says.

Senator Mark Kelly of AZ just asked him to yield for a question. He’s bringing to light the illegal use of military against US citizens. Fuck yeah!
Senators doing their jobs. Democrats need to take notes. No compliance. No subservience. No boot licking.
Instead, hold the floor. Ask the right questions. Make this regime feel uncomfortable at every step.

Y’all. For those who aren’t aware. Jeff Merkley, my Oregon senator, has been holding the Senate floor for 18 hours to protest the dictator (like Booker did).
Dude is 69 years old. He looks super tired, but he’s still going.
I never share YouTube links. I’m sorry for that. But in this case, it’s worth a click (in a private browser).
This is historical. Go, Jeff! ✊🏻
