#LupitaNyongo joins fight to fund #fibroids research: 'I no longer want to remain silent'

Rep. #HakeemJeffries is a House hero.
It’s now nearly 7 1/2 hours into his self-described Sweet Time, a possibly record breaking #Congressional speech presently enabling debate to continue in other rooms.
A bit behind on hearing him start, I briefly suspected he was picking a strange time to Come Out; when of course he was reading the words of an American woman who could lose HER husband without the #healthcare safety net we have enjoyed since the Obama victory.
But people are gonna’ die.

Trump’s effort, combined thrust of his other #constitutional transgressions, uniquely dangerous. No indication he gave any thought to seeking #congressional #authorization. As self-concerned, immature a commander-in-chief as country has had, he likely acted, as always, out of crass self-interest. #Israel surprisingly successful #bombardment of last week put him in position to be a winner by finishing off the job—very possibly the only thing that was in his #lizard #brain. https://harrylitman.substack.com/p/trumps-strike-on-iran-and-the-constitution
I do have question:
If it is true that only #Congress can authorize
one (treacherous) military attack on another #Nation...
Why did the #U.S. #Army went bombing #Iran >without an authorization from #Congress?
Are there any other #legal #loopholes that allow the 'administration' to avoid #congressional oversight?
Or did #Trup commit an illegal act by ordering the bombing?
Or did the #military commit an illegal act by obeying Trump?
Or as always in the USA ... >a "yes and no'
Rogue despot declares war without #Congressional approval.
It's been nice knowing you #Murrica
Y'all feeling great yet?

#Trump faces #bipartisan blowback in #Congress on #Iran strikes Why it matters: While most #congressional #Republicans some pro-Israel #Democrats are praising President Trump's strikes on #Iranian #nuclear facilities, pockets of #opposition are already emerging over whether he needed congressional #authorization for such a #provocative use of #military #force. Yes, he did need Congressional #authorization..why is there even a question. #warpowers #foreign #policy #retaliation #democracy #war
Decided to put more work into my sign. More blue masking tape, some razor blade trimming, and a heavy shadow on the “Gestapo” make a nice difference. My previous signs were much bigger so I like this one for a while.

The PROBLEM in #America
and the reason you have a #Trump
is that...
Americans forget too easily
e.g. #Devin #Nunes
He invented investigations in #Ukraine
to support Trump"s propaganda
and protect #Putin
all false all BS
a REAL crime at #Congressional levels
....
today no one remembers him
(he should be in prison)
and there are MANY MAGAs like him
Americans MUST hold people who commit crimes >accountable<
to avoid other #Trumps.

How long before this regime stops the US Mint from showing categories of medals like "Native American" or "African American"? They are re-naming Harvey Milk's Navy ship, they took down sites for Tuskegee Airmen.

Paragon Health Institute's president is writing legislation for the GOP. Hidden in the meta-data of the PDF was the fact it was authored by Brian Blase. To give tax cuts to the rich, they want to gut social services & Medicare.
