Trump struck Iran without any authorization of Congress. We need to immediately return to DC and vote on Rep. Thomas Masie and my War Powers Resolution to prevent America from being dragged into another endless Middle East war.
It is in America's national security interest for Iran not to have a bomb. I explained to Wolf Blitzer that the way to achieve this is to support Trump's diplomacy as opposed to striking Iran. That would explode our deficits & put all Americans, especially our troops, at more risk.
On @chrislhayes.bsky.social, I called on @schumer.senate.gov to support @kaine.senate.gov, @sanders.senate.gov, Rep. Massie & my resolution opposing a war in Iran. This is a defining moment for our party where too many blundered in supporting the Iraq war. Now we need to be clear — no war in Iran.
What in the world does this mean @schumer.senate.gov? "I believe Congress and Senate Democrats, if necessary, will not hesitate to exercise our authority." This is why your numbers are toxic with our base. They want us to be the anti-war party again
Democratic platform should be: Peace abroad, good jobs at home. Our failure to grab the anti war mantle and feckless comments by some leaders is exactly what's wrong with the party. Maybe if you're an elected who cheerled for the Iraq war, it's time for you to retire!
No war in Iran. It's time for every member to go on record. Are you with the neocons who led us into Iraq or do you stand with the American people? I am proud to co-lead a bipartisan War Powers Resolution with Rep. Massie that is privileged and must receive a vote.
It was great meeting with leaders and presidents from the teamsters, and an honor to be the keynote speaker at the Joint Council 7 Conference. CA needs to pass legislation to require truck drivers on autonomous vehicles for safety. We need moonshot investment in our industrial base with union jobs.
I’m horrified by the murder of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark. This is a tragedy for Minnesota and our nation. Praying for Senator John Hoffman and his wife’s recovery. Political violence has no place in America.

I think Musk is married to the Mob @rokhanna.bsky.social and will either have to take the cannoli or sleep with the fishes. That said, he could do a lot damage since Trump cannot distance himself far enough from a blast zone if Musk decides to tweak the X algo and go to the mattresses.
Both JD Vance "it’s not going to be good" for Elon Musk if he doesn't crawl back & Donald Trump himself warning of "very serious consequences" are threatening Musk. @karaswisher.bsky.social, how do you think it works out? www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

I voted to subpoena Elon yesterday and believe he must be held accountable for the cruel and unconstitutional cuts to USAID and veterans' programs. But having him sidelined for '26 and speaking out against the Big Ugly bill will help in stopping Trump's cruel agenda.
