Cuomo here argues that the left can’t complain about boats being hit by drone strikes because they didn’t care when Obama was hitting people with drone strikes. Except of course many people went after Obama for his drone war. What Cuomo means is that *he* didn’t care. Dolt.

I'm partnering with @RepThomasMassie & @JoaquinCastrotx to introduce a major new War Powers Resolution that will force a vote in Congress to block Trump’s insane escalations against Venezuela. No one except the president and his crazy billionaire backers want this war—so I’m

GOP Rep. Mike Turner: "Congress has made it clear that the administration has not provided us with sufficient information as to what the administration is doing to have the support of Congress for any actions inside Venezuela."

Less than 1/3 of Republicans support invading Venezuela. And only 9% of Dems, and 9% of Independents support such action. Most Americans want the U.S. to respect other countries. Let’s stand up for the American Constitution and Congress’ #WarPowers

Thank you @RepMcGovern for your leadership on this #WarPowers issue. #NoKings means no unilateral invasions of sovereign nations. Congress gets to decide.

"Double tap" strikes get attention because they'd be war crimes EVEN IF we really were at war and drug mules were real enemy combatants. But we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that we aren't legally at war and using the military for extrajudicial slaughter is already a crime.

Lawmakers are apparently being shown the full video of the Sept 2 boat strikes in their meetings with Adm Bradley and Gen Caine. HIMES: “what I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I’ve seen in my time in public service…you have two individuals and clear

🆕 Bipartisan Senators officially file War Powers Resolution to ensure an urgent vote if Trump launches an illegal regime change war in Venezuela “The American people do not want to be dragged into endless war with Venezuela without public debate or a vote,” said @SenRandPaul
New @SenTimKaine-@SenRandPaul War Powers vote "will move immediately should there be military action" Senate GOP voted against the Venezuela War Powers Resolution only after Rubio promised Trump did NOT plan to launch attack Trump will LOSE the vote if he starts an illegal war

Rubio — like his ally Bolton — is the one hoping to "sucker Donald Trump" A US-Venezuela deal on energy & migration — in exchange for US lifting its brutal sanctions against civilians — is a no-brainer that will benefit both Americans & Venezuelans https://t.co/aK5G05E6jr
Rubio is misrepresenting past "deals" with Maduro because he's hoping to block Trump from making a new one Instead of opposing talks, he wants to create conditions to ensure talks will fail This is the exact strategy Bolton admitted he used to undermine Trump's Korea diplomacy

“The Constitution does not permit the executive branch to unilaterally commit an act of war against a sovereign nation that hasn’t attacked the U.S" "[E]very member of the House [will have to go] on the record about sending service members to a war that Americans do not want"
NEW: @RepMcGovern, @RepThomasMassie and @JoaquinCastrotx lead a bipartisan war powers resolution, H.Con.Res 64, to prohibit unconstitutional war within or against Venezuela absent Congressional authorization. This measure is privileged and must receive a vote within 15 days.

"[T]he prospect of members being subject to a public, on-the-record vote on whether to block a new war carries significant political weight and can help deter escalation" It "could garner added support from Republicans, given the broader unpopularity of conflict with Venezuela"

Trump is illegally attacking boats allegedly carrying drugs. He brags about being tough on drug dealers. Meanwhile, he pardons the former Honduran president — a man convicted in American court of bringing hundreds of tons of cocaine to the U.S. You can’t make this stuff up.

🧠 Smart move by Trump, who once again chose to NOT TAKE MILITARY ACTION against Venezuela Military action is very unpopular and very risky — so the smartest move is for Trump to continue to reject Rubio's regime change war fantasy, which voters overwhelmingly oppose:
Reuters: Maduro ignored deadline, Trump did nothing Trump gave Maduro "a week to leave Venezuela... That safe passage expired on Friday" He then "declare[d] on Saturday that Venezuela's airspace was closed" Airlines ignored it, Trump later said "don't read anything into it"
