The President is openly threatening genocide. A crime against humanity. He must be removed from office.
The 25th Amendment must be invoked. If not, Congress has to do our damn job. Speaker Johnson, call us into session. War powers & impeachment. Remove this man from office.
In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists.
Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.

👀 Trump’s director of the National Counterterrorism Center Joe Kent resigns, saying: “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran.”
Wow. Tulsi Gabbard deputy resigns to protest Trump’s Iran War.
