House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announces the House will introduce and vote on a 'War Powers Resolution to limit the President's military actions regarding Iran'

Washington House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Sunday sent a letter to Democratic members of Congress announcing the House will introduce and vote on a"War Powers Resolution to limit the President's military actions regarding Iran" amid rising tension.

The resolution, Pelosi writes,"reasserts Congress's long-established oversight responsibilities by mandating that if no further Congressional action is taken, the Administration's military hostilities with regard to Iran cease within 30 days."The letter comes as the US is deploying thousands of additional troops to the Middle East following the airstrike that killed Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani.

Veto next crazy thing that won’t pass because we don’t work with the other side?

Wow trump is succeeding in turning things around.. Now they are having no more impeachments talks lol...

Trump messing with Democrats kick back from the pallets of cash sent to Iran!

Okey,so Democrats are here to frustrate the American people by frustrating their legitimate President they voted for

Sorry sis, ain’t gonna work

Isn't this just like the dirty dems? They change the rules when they don't get their way. Nancy, where's those articles of impeachment? Did you forget? Millions of OUR tax dollars WASTED!

rudybird100 So, we already have the WAR POWERS ACT, please explain why we need a Resolution to do the same thing you are already empowered to do? If you are going to pass legislation and then refuse to use it, what in the hell are you doing?

Iran has hacked CNN’s Twitter account.

Democrats are about to be exposed for their crooked actions in the Iran deal! They are shitting now

Call it Dems support Iran resolution

Are you gonna just hold on to that as well😆

Senate will deny no problem. How about ya send that impeachment first? Or is it because you know you’re in the wrong?

Democrats want to protect Iran, if they kill more Americans. This is SICK.

Good Nancy.........You are traitorous to try and tie the hands of the Commander-in-Chief

It’s like we’re playing football, the democrats are our offensive line, and every snap we take, they just step aside. That’s why Iran is so emboldened, they know the democrats are on their team.

Impeach Pelosi

Thank you for making America LESS safe. Fool

And it won’t make it past the senate lol

Hahahahaha!!! LMAO!!

🤣🤣🤣 hey where are those article of impeachment drunk Nancy? 🤣

SpeakerPelosi you are tying the hand of every President going forward! Is your hate for this President worth that?

News Flash... it won't pass in the Senate.

Why are Dems so determined to protect KNOWN sponsors of terrorism?🤔

She wears black for that evil! What Congress do we have now? US or Iran?

U will soon b impeached as speaker urself

Well bless her heart 🙄

I hope and pray that Republicans wise up and vote to limit Trump's military power.

LMFAO.. DEMOCRATS ARE SICK

Why? It's not going anywhere.

I'm a conservative and all for it. BUT you dems need to realize your own reps foolishly voted to declare Iran military a terrorist org back in 07. (Hillary of course) Many neocons on both sides! Watch out!

Wait a second...This is the person that says she wants to impeach the president for abuse of power.. What Nancy will we get tomorrow? Got dementia much?

How can anyone support the Democratic party, they are lost with no focus except to remove the best President of this century.

At least somebody is doing something in congress, unlike the republicans spending three week in Florida

don't want him killing any more of her friends

Total idiots.. poof.! Just like that the liberal media and Democrats made everyone forget about gun control, immigration, climate change and women's soccer.. what the weak-minded people believed the Democrats would take care of.

This is not how the government works. The courts will overturn her idiotic ideas.

Wow. Trying to stop our president from protecting Americans? Shocking.

Bat shit CRAZY SHE IS

How about limiting all Presidents ability to unilaterally commit us to war and get US soldiers killed?

Trump tries to FORCE his ways on us!!... Families separated, children in cages,bigoted bias against people of color & the poor, Playing golf and lying more than any president in history, etc. etc. REMOVE HIM!!!!

Great. The boyishly Trump is not fit for it.

Mitch McConnell is eagerly waiting for the Bill at the Senate

He won't care. We're heading toward dictatorship... It'll be fun

This proves if she was president basically because of fear she would literally surrender to any enemy

That b I t c h is a terrorist

Another thing Donald Trump will ignore LOL

Whose side is this women on?

Will be curious how Republicans vote. Someday maybe they will ser the danget of selling out to win judges, immigration and etc

War Power resolution & put Americans at risk of terrorists like Soleimani? He was a known terrorist hiding under the Iranian flag! Democrat leaders are a security threat to the U.S. & are undermining the security of our nation. It’s Disgraceful Dems choose party over country!

Trump terrorizing thousands, or millions, of people with careless 'Shock & Awe' attacks of mass destruction is just insane bringing The USA down into the realm of monster state the rest of the world must put down like Hitler?

A useless resolution senate will do nothing to stop the insane person running the United States. They’ve already proven this with trumps senate trial

It won't be too soon for the House to vote on the War Powers Resolution to limit Donald Trump's lunatic and mentally challenged fits of violence.

Maybe Pelosi can find those pesky articles. What are the chances that McConnell, the Senate Republicans and Trump sign off on Pelosi's WPR? Can Pelosi and the Radical Left get 2/3rds of House-Senate members to vote her way on ANYTHING?! The woman is deranged, crazy and delusional

Of course she is!😂

Anybody think Trump cares ?

ThinkOneWorld Doesn’t he still have to sign it?

We take revenge

That's what you are for Nancy You voted to allow us to go into Iraq and Afghanistan Dont act as if you didnt allow Obama to do things.

The left is damaging the country with their radical nonsense! We must take back the house and rid these radicals from our government! TIME TO CLEAN HOUSE!!

This should, in a perfect world, have bipartisan support as it affects ALL Americans.

3 💩 bags killed like dogs conducting military operations aginst 🇺🇸 Forces cnn, elected Dems now support Iran wake citizens Qassem Soleimani Iranian Major general Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis head of Kata'ib Hezbollah Mohammed Ridha PMF head of protocol

So they make a big deal about what Trump supposedly got our country into & how scared everyone should be. Now their tying his hands. So must not be that dangerous

Too Late!

When will our democrat elected officials start introducing bills that PROTECT our CITIZENS instead of bills that protect our enemies?

Yea That one’s likely to get signed into law.

Parliament is not Iraqi, it does not represent the Iraqi people, and we do not want sanctions. We want freedom

Good. Sooner rather than later!

You gave him all the money he needed for the military. Can anyone spell contributory negligence

why bother? Will never get through the Senate.

shouldn't she finish the impeachment thing first also she cant even clean up and secure her own home district, how could she even possible know what to do internationally

Invoke the 25th before it’s too late!

She’s a psycho

Most that will vote on this never made a peep about Obama dropping 20000 Bombs Over the Middle East but okay frauds. Keep helping his push towards re-election

Good, trump is dangerous.

Pelosi is puffed up with her own importance. Must vote her out of office in 2020.

Won’t ever pass the Senate. Thank God.

Parliament is not Iraqi and does not represent the Iraqi people

So?

Where was this Nancy when Obama used drones over 2k times? Did she not care then?

The do nothing socialist DemocRats care more about the criminals and the terrorists than the American people. shameful

Someone put an end to this old bat. She more concerned about hating the man fixing our nation than what’s she’s actually supposed to be doing! If your over 65 you shouldn’t be a government official or hold a seat in office. Your to old to know what America wants.

That's it Nancy, weaken this country some more, we are so ripe for the picking right now.

Probably should have written a stricter war powers resolution in '73, then.

She’s not a big fan is she?

Who's side are you on, Nasty Pelosi?

Well that and a MetroCard...

She is so old good for her to stay at home Pelosii

Detect knife carrying attackers and active shooters before they strike! New tech on the market: PATSCAN™️

Well the good thing about this is the united states constitution affords trump all the authority as commander and cheif. Sorry ms pelosi

Democrats have now become Iran supporters .

Al Sullivan's Journal: No Santa or Free Press :

Nancy Pelosi and US Congress Democrats are about to become our American Troops and America's citizens greatest national domestic and international threat by tying presidents Trumps hands, as Iran and its terrorist outlets declare US Military personnel targets.

Do something before this mad man put us in another nonsense war!!!

Bla bla bla, hahaha hahaha

Very good. This President seems to think he’s judge jury executioner but it’s not the case. He’s just the President and will be held accountable for his actions & legislative agenda as need be.

Its a damn shame

PhilipStolkin There are easier ways: Banishes the President to Iran. SpeakerPelosi IMPOTUS

This is the last power the democrats have to do anything, you can impeach Trump again but you have only 366 days left, after this no arm of government will be under your control if possible in decades.. Rip to your party

And then what? Remove the senate and the white house to make it effective? Political stunts and playing with the minda of their constituents!

Vetoed.

SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer DNC = The biggest TerroristSympathizers in America

Means absolutely nothing. Pelosi keeps making a bigger fool out of herself then she already is.

CNN and PALOSI Wants To Destroy America.

He threatens the whole world with sanctions He's an animal. And Iran cultural sites? THAT'S WHAT ISIS DOES. America is evil. Trump and his thugs must be confronted. NO TRUMP MUNICH.

The senate will eat this up 😋

What the hell is GOING on!

OptaHos Better late than .. Nvm

👍🙏

The Very Democracy He Trys 2 Destroy. Without Proof Trump Should Be Handed Over To Iran To Face Charges. I Bet He Comes Out With His Proof Then. We The People Trust The President To Represent The Whole Of America,Not The One Sitting Atop. The Height Of Arrogance With No Shame🙏US

TulsiGabbard wrote this already.

She could send $$ to Iran like Obama to fund chaos and terrorism ..

Yes because if Trump was to kill all the terrorist, then the communist democrats would have to create another boogeyman, to keep endless wars going on!

She’ll just meddle around and get more people killed. Stand aside idiot.

45needstogo1 Yes, thats fantastic. No more running off to start a war on your own anyone

Speaker Pelosi, please hold onto the Articles for as long as necessary. Forever seems necessary.

Good woman Mrs Nancy Pelosi, you have more balls than, Pompeo Graham and McConnell put together, good to see someone at home in America cares about America' maby theiris hope after all Don't forget about IMPEACHMENT! Because that is what he is trying to avoid

What about just getting rid of trump

So what....Trump will do what he needs to do anyways. What’s the old bag going to do? Impeach him again.

America has more enemies and very few friends in the world because of Trump.

More politics. No action, she is no longer believable. Remember these changes will affect future presidents. Careful in what you do because of your hate for Trump

Nancy needs to get laid and get a life she will do anything in her power to stay in the lime light a second longer trying to right trumps coat tail to fame

I thought you just voted to impeach the president. Where did that go? Hiding in your drawer Nancy? Let’s see what dirt you have in the Middle East. I am sure you guys all got your hands dipped in there deeply.

Nobody wants war, but these bunch are evil, why you would do that is insane, they've been a threat ever since you guys were handing over money left right & center, get real!

Yes please do something before trump gets us into unnecessary war. He is most toxic president in our history and does not care about our safety.

Revealing Trump taxes will be the ticket out of the White House! releaseTrumpsTaxes

It's rational to control a maniac in power. Trump Iran Soleimani Nancy_Pelosi

Just more hot air from this out of touch wind bag. Did Cortez ok this?

America stop. Please stop killing. Stop all you're wars. Leave us in peace.

She should include language acknowledging that striking cultural targets and disproportionate responses are both internationally recognised as war crimes and that should the President authorises such attacks, he is responsible personally for such crimes, as commander in chief.

Wow!! This is crazy!!

This is all a bunch of political bullshit. Trump has never declared war.. Iran provoked us by attacking our embassy in iraq. Unlike Obama, trump responded with force, obama went to bed.

👏👏👏

The GOP has an opportunity to get rid of this megalomaniac in the palm of their hands. For the sake of the world, just do it..

Get him out of office and directly into jail... NOW. U haven't so many ch choices to changes this bad war situation. So do the right.

SpeakerPelosi It was fine for BarackObama to take out terrorists in a airstrike with no congressional permission, but realDonaldTrump does it you throw a fit! How bout shutting up for once, and let realDonaldTrump do his job! You know the job us Americans voted him in to do!

I don't know why the American flags stand against Trump for the sake of the Democrats to destroy a people that contains 40 million people who refuse to interfere with the Iranian and the Democrats say that the Iraqi people want this intervention what the hell is this nonsense

Congress has the power to declare war, not the POTUS. Read the constitution u idiots

Americans should eliminate the Democratic Party, the United States has immigrated to rogue elements, and the Democrats are now anti-American members.

Do you smell that? It’s desperation.

If it was only that easy. Legislative branch does not have that kind of power over the Executive. This thing called THE SEPARATION OF POWERS. Oh... and did you read the Patriot Act.

She is so dumb ... she is getting to Fredo’s level. The house does not have such authority.

And it will be DOA in the senate.

Medicine after death

Good. Make the US leave Iraq. Iran influence will metastasize.

This is getting more and more interesting 🙂

Good decision mam,,,, he just want to deviate people from impeachment,,, and want to gain sympathy,,,, save the world American,,,, war is not solution,,,,, don't let liar dictate your country.

Control over the man with a cat on his head.

very big discount✅🔥 🔥 J2f

Thank you Nancy.

She’s going to be pissed the first time she has to be woken up from her afternoon nap time to give permission for an airstrike. And we all know how cranky she can be with no nap, or no scotch. And when her Xanax wears off, forget about it!

Work SpeakerPelosi!

Iran will back the Democrat Party in the next Presidental election. Right now Iran’s terriorist program is in jeporidy. Terrorizing the terriorist isn’t fair.

👌

More shit for show. Big deal. Her time is nearly up.

Lopsided House with a lopsided Speaker

go live there with a shroud. so we dont have to see you

Ok but it has to pass the Senate & that’s a no-go. Regardless, T & his entire admin done give a flying flip what laws they break bc no one can stop them. Let’s just get REAL & quit pretending otherwise

Great to hearing of it.

Good for you miss Pelosi. We need to limit as much as we can I've Trump so-called power. He is a wannabe dictator and he is driving our country in mud. I am a proud American

Yawn...

That's shocking

Why doesn’t she do something useful? Hey, maybe even a proclamation from congress to the men and women in our embassy showing support.

Maybe she should finish the impeachment first? Confused.

One in a long list of failures by SpeakerPelosi on behalf of the American people. Sham impeachment Defending illegals Homelessness Attacking the 2A Defending terrorists No control over the progressives Health insurance etc. She's nothing but a demented, aged partisan hack.

All name Nancy is in pluto

Endangering our troops for the sake of pretending she is in control and proving to Iran we are not a reckoning power.

What Dems want to change the law to suit them? What a shock!

Go for it

So they have an issue when we draw a line and back it up when it’s crossed, but not when someone sends them pallets of cash or lets them walk all over us.

Lol

Tell me something,,,,when is the house gonna represent the people and THROW THIS IDIOT PELOSI OUT,,curious minds are enquiring,,,,,,,,,,,,

Way too late, huh? .......

Good luck!

You took it out of the NDAA? Screw you SpeakerPelosi

More treason by the Democratic party.

Trump is threatening to destroy Iranian culture heritage! It’s totally TERRORISM!!!!

The US constitution is clear and this draft resolution is unnecessary, the assassination of Qasim Soleimani within the jurisdiction of the Trump administration, and the war and peace decision within the competence of the Congress.

Okay madam speaker 😂😂😂😂

Hand over the articles! Stop deflecting.

Trump has willingly and knowingly broke the laws of the United States. Therefore he should be removed from office immediately. And that was before he broke the Wars Powers act.

I didn’t know democrats love Iran this much!

Some worst now good, true in world?

Madam Speaker, you know full well “resolutions” are meaningless. They aren’t binding. They aren’t law. Until a resolution passes the House, then the Senate, and then is signed by the President, it is nothing. As usual, you do a lot of posturing with no real output.

She should have thought about this BEFORE approving all his budgets and giving him money.

Regardless of who sits in the Oval Office, this could potentially cause great calamity in the future. Especially if Iran decides to tactically retaliate after the bill gets passed by the housedems.

Trump never said he was declaring war. He said he will retaliate against any strikes by Iran. Ugh!

Who’s working for Russia now? Who’s Iran’s ally? Putin. Democrats are right. It’s all about Russia. Who’s Putin’s bitch now Nancy?

Give President Trump full power, unite with the president. Don't you see, America enemies views Democrats attack on the president puts America in a vulnerable state & opportune time to shift the world super power away from America? Trump did the right thing not to consult cowards

Lol... say goodbye to the house,Democrats!!!

Tell him we will show our power soon. Hard revenge is coming.

Madam speaker, wrong. This is the time for Americans to throw politics aside and unite against a common enemy.

And it was better also to do it in the time when the president W Bush to make the war with his friend the Iran they arrange it with another’s countries Arabic and EU against the Iraq, that done it was also the beginning to stop it what happen now.

Suzette11779959 At last. Some reason. Some limits.

And then SenateGOP and senatemajldr will let it sit unattended to.

My God, you libs would rather protect Iran than our own citizens!! You’re truly brainwashed - it’s beyond scary to see what you people have become.

Finally

I thought that she was delivering papers to start an impeachment -is her memory shot?

The people of the United States should all be standing as a United front to the rest of the world.

Listen you drunk. It’s called the war powers act. Trump doesn’t have to tell you jack for 90 days. Where was your resolution when Obama was launching hundreds of drone strikes killing civilians? Just sit down. Adults are running things.

Ok but do y’all think birds are real

🤣

😂😂

Nancy needs to retire ASAP
