Graham said in a statement that Suleimani"had American blood on his hands" and welcomed what he called Trump’s “bold action against Iranian aggression."Suleimani and the Quds Force were responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans and other coalition forces and orchestrated attacks on bases in Iraq within the last several months, including a Dec. 27 attackRep.
Iran’s Foreign Minister, Javad Zarif, called the U.S. strike an"act of international terrorism" and an assassination. He said in a tweet that it was an “extremely dangerous & a foolish escalation.”The US' act of international terrorism, targeting & assassinating General Soleimani—THE most effective force fighting Daesh , Al Nusrah, Al Qaeda et al—is extremely dangerous & a foolish escalation.
He wants to assert his authority and no be questioned about it. He needs gone as president. Put in a mental institution for the remaining years of his life.
SpeakerPelosi really means without HER permission. The problem with people like her is you can't rely on her to keep quiet or to even reply in a timely manner. Secondly, the House Democrats are not known for security, given the IT scandal & Clinton Email Server.
He doesn't need your blessing.
So did Obama!!! Dem the hypocrite party. Do as i say not as i do. By Nancy you gone 2020!
NsAPesarDeTodo Shut the front door
She's right. he didn't. He doesn't negotiate with terrorsits!
Since the Iraqi people have gone to Saddam, Mr. President in misery. Where are you looking at us from there.
Pelosi please pack your bags and head to Iran. They need a leader like you, also please wear bright colors so the drones can clearly pick you out of a crowd.
She can kiss trumps ass
How long will these actions be allowed to continue? Will Congress own this decision without action? Does this put American citizens at risk? Got to be a better way.
Congress is not involved in military strikes and FYI the president doesn’t have to request your damn permission to take a dump
Morning_Joe White flight pelosi and morning Hatchet joe with comrade Nicole Wallace go from Russian puppets and their useful idiots to Iranian ones.
Morning_Joe Congress is sick right now. They are in the middle of Hank Johnson democrat bigots impeachment hysteria
Interesting
If Nancy , Chuck, little Adam Schiff, told me it was raining outside , I would go out and check. The Democratic Party creditable is shot. I pray every day a whistleblower comes forward and tells the American people some dirty on Nancy and Adam Schiff
Why would Nancy get anything prior to this happening? She or someone on her staff or a member of the house would have leaked it to press , just to discredit trump. She wants details so Adam Schiff and create another whistleblower.
hmmm
SpeakerPelosi wants details....her ya go: realDonaldTrump picked up his phone during a commercial while watching ‘The Patriot’ & told a badass to call another badass to push a button so the drone flying over the terrorist would fire a missile right up his ass. 💥 NancyPelosi
This man is crazy and he's going to bring this country down.we the people must vote him, out the World is watching us.😅😅😅😅😅😅
Well, he's still down in Miami on vacation so how does she expect to get answers from him?
Ah yes, guys remember how the Commander In Chief has to consult congress for a fucking air strike? Yeah me neither
Morning_Joe A Congress that can’t be trusted, a Congress that would leak to the Iranians, all to avoid a Trump success. UnAmerican and treasonous does not begin to describe today’s Democratic Party.
Bc he’s a wannabe dictator and no one is going to tell him what to do. Pathetic little man.
Trump needs to be held accountable Lock Him Up
morningcloak7 Isn’t Congress on vacation? How long was he suppose to wait? Furthermore, Obama Bombed Syria & Iraq repeatedly without consulting Congress....so shut it up Nancy ... go drink some more Vodka & pop some more pills!
Actions have consequences. The US is not going to get out of this unscathed. I just wonder what innocent people will pay for another’s impulsive act.
Go Away Nancy.
It's so stupid not to seek advisement with Congress. GOP would have had the chance to share some of the blame when it all goes to hell. Even if you hated the other side. You'd be creating more protection for yourself. They make horrible villains.
We have a completely lawless POTUS.
Michael04459187 Someone did something
What is her problem mad because they can’t carry another briefcase of millions of dollars to Iran to beef up the military better
SpeakerPelosi
How do you hold Trump accountable? TeamPelosi HouseGOP Comey TheDemocrats
And yet Democrats voted to give Trump more military powers. Things that make you go hmm.
Mr. Trump does not believe in Congress.
That is call doing his job! What have you done old bag?!
Smart. Democrats can't be trusted with operational security.
I am not surprised About anything realDonaldTrump does he thinks that he is running the US like his BANKRUPT business He Feels that he does not have to report to no one He is literally a unintelligent 73yr MORON
IMPEACH!!!
It's hard to consult with the Democrats, then carry out a military strike when they run to Iran to leak the information. Pelosi knows that 1.5 billion dollars went over there. We are better off having one less evil person in the world.
But his son Eric knew ahead of time.
Nancy is a garbage human being. Trump could cure cancer and she’d find a way to be miserable about it.
Good go sit down somewhere!!
Trump for prison 2020
Tell her to watch the news
Since when does our President need Pelosi's approval?
He's done it before, he'll do it again.
that would be like telling salami, here we come
Thank God.
So what?
Is this another impeachable act? I know other presidents have defied this law but isn't it time Congress take back their role?
Last time we tried to take over a government with a population of 30 million or more who has been at war for decades, even with a Military Daft ended very badly. Youngsters that would have been Vietnam. History repeats.
He acted in his capacity as Commander And Chief to thwart planned attacks against against US Citizens and US Facilities. Thank You President Trump. Keep America Great.
Why consult Congress,they would be against anything he did even when it comes out good.
Dictator that's what he is. Great job America
Nor did he consult with the Iranians..for the same reasons
Sad that congress can’t be trusted. No pallets of cash for them, then back to your sons. Hope they all got taught to save all that embezzled money.
Morning_Joe Again your views are anti American..we want safety in our country and the world..
Nancy sucks so bad. She’s okay with this 100% guaranteed
He probably tried, but Nancy was already passed out on Xanax and Kharkov vodka.
Good job Mr President
I hear that Trump called you, but you were too drunk to hold a coherent conversation.
Nancy 'Kraps' all over POTUS GOPLeader GOPChairwoman GOP on a daily basis intending to harm and further she has no intentions of ever cooperating so SpeakerPelosi Get used to being in line behind we mortal Americans and inform yourself by watching the News!
rolandsmartin Is this Impeachable? Lol
Again SpeakerPelosi doesn’t understand the constitution, the President does not need to consult Congress to do what he did.
Good to see her sober enough to realize there had been an air strike
wsj housegop 2011 Yale Law Prof. Bruce Ackerman stated that Obama's position 'lacks a solid legal foundation. And by adopting it, the White House has shattered the traditional legal process the exec branch has developed to sustain the rule of law over the past 75 years.'
The liberals would have leaked it, no doubt
I remember when process critiques ended up stopping the war in Iraq in 2003! Great move by Nancy Pelosi, very brave stuff
Nancy Pelosi is in over her head. The 2020 elections can not get here soon enough, the democrats have no business holding the power of the gavel.
Of course realDonaldTrump didn't consult anyone. This is a selfish act to distract from his impeachment and his other many failures as a leader. More Americans will die because of this, not fewer.
He doesn't have to
SpeakerPelosi - you would have held up the meeting til convenient- USA headdummycrat
Who cares what she says anymore.
yep...no one trusts you
So you can leak it?
One problem with trump is because he’s not a politician, he thinks he can do whatever he wants. There are rules to follow in politics & he doesn’t know any of them! That’s what you get when you elect a failed businessman for President. Now we’ll all pay for his ignorance!
Not needed hag.
He is a piece of crap, he will never respect the law
Rb6765G Another violation of the Constitution.
ClearandPresentDanger
I'm sure there were Republicans that were informed, Democrats are a leaky security risk that give aid to an enemy..
She continues to show a disruptive presence rather than for the good of the country. Maybe we will suffer reprisals from this attack but we were already being attacked and will continue. Its not certain what the outcome will be but it is certain that Nancy's won't be helpful
Why would the military carry out an unauthorized attack?
Add this to his impeachment
Pelosi & Schumer wanted to give Iran another 140 billion dollars and Kiss the commanders ass. Pelosi says we need to get along.
Trump 2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
THANK GOD
She wants details so she can leak them and start another impeachment! Traitor!
Good. No sense involving anti American traitors!
Yes Trump would use America and its resources to an Iranian figure to get himself re-elected.
Who cares what you think
Publicize the GrandBargain as described in ProofOfConspiracy by SethAbramson . These reaction reports about isolated daily incidents do not serve the public. War with Iran is what 45 agreed to a long time ago for his own personal benefit.
The President doesn't need congress for such actions. The founders specifically used 'declare' war instead of 'make' because the Executive needs to repel potential invasions and hostilities. If Congress had to approve everything, America would never be safe.
Of course he did. He thinks he is our king.
tRump is spitting on your face in front of the US and he knows that there is nothing you will do about it. Sad time for us.
Someone needs to tell her that he is the President & doesn’t need to ask permission as Commander In Chief of the Military & our Nation. 🇺🇸
That’s what true Americans want...not the gutless liberal way
POTUS isn't required to consult these idiots...they would only run and tell the Iranians what was coming...
Obama did this several times. Did she say the same then?
So did Obama Bush Clinton. Nothing new.
SpeakerPelosi Maybe he didn’t want it leaked.
I don’t think the President needs to consult with Congress. He responded to an attack on us. Why would the President risk the leaks?
LockHimUp
He didn’t need to.
LukeRussell1281 TeamPelosi GOPLeader Did any generals sign off on this assassination?
So what are you in Washington going to do
He so disrespectful to the Congress
Didn't need it.
Who Cares What Pelosi Thinks & Congress Can Kiss As
He doesn’t have time to consult congress when it’s a quick strike like this
Of course, you would have tipped him off.
He's Impeached by the House so why should he consult?
Hold on suddenly she wants pillow talk? SpeakerPelosi just lead an Impeachment against realDonaldTrump what other consent does he need?
Hold him accountable!
Its an active conflict you dope. He doesn't need your approval
The leftist socialist treason continues.
Someone let Pelosi know that Trump didn't plan the attacks and carry them out by himself. Pretty sure that there were alot of people involved and they didnt need the impeachment squad messing things up.
Hey Nancy you can’t even keep the shit off your own city streets what’s makes ya think Americans need to consult you on ANYTHING! Just look at your state , people leaving in droves , thank God for the illegal immigrants paying taxes to sustain your economy. You go girl !
Margaret Brennan said it best. This is an act of war which Trump has taken unilaterally.
What Congress?
Trump can't trust congress.
Of course he did.........why would he follow proper procedure?
Of course he did. His actions are making Congress irrelevant which Congress has allowed.
Good! What is she gonna do, impeach him? Lol
Obama oversaw 26,000 DRONE HITS!!! WTF IS EVERYONE GOING NUTS ABOUT NOW!!
He doesn’t need her opinion on an air strike in an active combat zone
Impeach him again!!!! Lol
ANOTHER law broken by the Executive Branch. Republicans know that Trump has been doing all manner of disagreeable things, but they know that if they oppose him, the same uneducated demographic that elected him will turn on THEM at the ballot box.
SandraHolway Such a deep and thoughtful stance
Of course because according to him he can do what he wants 'an eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind'
Oh pelosi stop it you won’t have done a thing
Good.
Did he need to?
Congress can’t be trusted
Instead of downing our President. You need to be praying for him and our military. Seems like you could care less about protecting.
He didn’t want them to get any warning. Surprise is effective
Watch her try to impeach him over this! She's overstepping her powers!
Good, Speaker Pelosi! Now what is going to actually happen as a consequence? Where are the consequences for all the out-of-line actions of Trump and his merry band of amateurs?
_bluhue Oh shoot... I need to wipe my ass, let me consult congress, I don’t want to anger SpeakerPelosi
Of course he did. He doesn't give a fvck about your rules and knows no one is willing to stop him. He's untouchable. Most Americans are lazy and uninformed and will allow it. The rest of us are screwed.
she helped these evil people carry out attacks against our NATION --her own lack respect for the us troops was a help for the iranians
Well, that’s what dictators do.
And he will keep doing shit like that because he’s not being held accountable.
Sometimes permission is not needed. Discretion dictated an opportunity arose and immediate action was required!!!! Congress would have taken too long and the opportunity missed.
But it is fine when Obama killed US citizens without Congress
His call
Add that to the grow list, Speaker Pelosi.
How does she know that why did she release that information
Ffs, we're now governing through fucking Twitter and (if you read for 4 seconds) no one is right, knows anything, tells the truth. I bet every one of you could be convinced Brawndo has what plants crave. idiocracyisadocumentary
This women will but her power trip over America!
Is she surprised!? A narcissist listens to no one
cuz we’d still be waiting
michikokakutani He didn't create a clear and present danger yesterday and no information changed overnight so Donald Trump committed a Act of War without Congressial approval
Present him to iran for warcrimes after forced removal by the Sgt arms.
oh nancy pancy, you were on vacation. your not ready for Prime time B
Well when we get attacked make sure he gets all the credit Nancy.
Congress MUST rein in and REMOVE this IMPOTUS He is starting a war to distract from his trial. GET THE PUTIN PUPPET OUT. NOW!!!
mohammed1269 Darkness has vanquished and a new dawn has come to Iraq Thank you Trump Thank you America We want an Iraqi Prime Minister and not a client
Right, and all of you who believe the United States should sit back and allow our citizens, ambassadors, and military personnel tasked with the responsibility of protecting our interests around the world or in our own back yards to be slaughtered...are traitors to the core!
Let’s not be devisive. That is what our enemies want. USA!!!!
Trump had authority under the War Powers Resolution to protect military personnel & the authority to act under the '01/'02 Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) as the IRGC is a terrorist group attacking US military...
He does not need her or their approval! They all run to the press!
Isn’t congress on vacation
Morning_Joe Bye bye shaking Nancy
The most dangerous heartless president to ever hold office.. so mental and not a damn thing is being done to save our country. More troops will be sent to war and die while this POS plays golf😡😡😡
You mean ( Madam) the Ruling govt has to take approval from opposition( Cong) to air strike Iraq...B.k..
Nobody loves a war as much as a president who has problems at home.
SpeakerPelosi Real Americans don’t kiss ass! We don’t make deals w/terrorists nor w/countries that do! So hold back your snowflakes posting apologies to Iran on Twitter! Only after 8yrs of Obama is this possible Traitors! SnowflakesTraitors USA !
She’s nasty
Hillaryh4444Hos Beginnings are simpler than endings
Remember, all this up evil was paid by the Obama administration
Get used to it
😡
He’s the USA Dictator now -
Is she ever going to stop flapping her Botox gums? Asking for a friend 🙊🤐
He's making all decisions from the southern white house And the one person there with him is Rudy. Trump is an idiot getting us deeper into the possibility of war.
You forgot to include: '...after delivering Trump a massive military budget even larger than he asked for.'
Morning_Joe Should look at how many oil stocks family has bought in last couple months. Did they make any money off of this?
Doesn't need leaky Congress to get a terrorist while it's possible. The way Confess blocks everything and takes it's sweet time the opportunity would have been lost. Did Obama ask Congress when they went after Bin Laden...no
Morning_Joe ANOTHER ILLEGAL ACT BY TRUMP.
Morning_Joe Like I said. Outside his authority to start war. That belongs to Congress. He is a threat to workd peace.
Well I suppose Jared was to make things right in the Middle East. Don't think that is going to well due to inexperience.
All they need to say - thank you Mr President for killing terrorists
rolandsmartin WOW! SEE, OUT OF ORDER OUT OF LINE, NOW DO YOU SEE WHY THIS MONSTER MUST BE IMPEACHED! OBAMA WOULDN'T ACT IN SUCH A MANNER! GIVE HIM THAT!
Tough
You did this.
Morning_Joe The majority in Congress doesn’t deserve consultation!
Here we go again another Republican War. Neither GOP or 3 have ANY interest in keeping Americans safe.
Good! You all have a recurring leak!
Oh Pelosi, give us all a break and sit down. There was a clear and present danger to American citizens and troops and the President did what had to be done to protect them. Try applauding him for once instead of criticizing for political gain.
So what . They would let the Enemy Know of upcoming attack .
Because we are living under a dictatorship.
Doesn’t need her approval
F her she can’t even speak a full sentence! Why would anyone in their right mind want to discuss anything with her? The world has seen how unstable she is and that in of itself self is beyond alarming!
Of course... expect anything less?!?
Dont need Congress to kill one or two people. Obama did this lots of times.
Fight for this night mare to end
We are in a very dangerous situation.
Wow a lot of people on here need to learn how the US government works and order of process don’t bitch if you don’t know.. go out and learn about it today.. smdh Sounds like Nancy P needs this advices too!
Obama sent pallets of cash...Trump sends the Grim Reaper. He did warn them, didn’t he ? Poor bastards better be listening now. Trump is a true leader of American values! Viva USA IMPEACHPELOSI2020
Another article of impeachment. Trump just put us all in jeopardy.
...thankfully.
Morning_Joe In your face, lefties.
Or any other democrat. The President has no obligation to tip off our enemies like the democrats in Congress.
Mrs Speaker, please step down and retire. The previous presidency left our country in the weaken state and I stand with the President. 🇺🇸
Do you ever stop whining
Just for once, while realDonaldTrump is standing against an attack on our people, SpeakerPelosi should be standing with him. Stop the partisan bs for a minute and do something for the American people
That’s why things got done
He doesn’t need permission
No one complained about Obama's drone strikes that killed terrorists without congressional approval?
Well everyone suddenly isn't talking about trumps treason and emails
Everybody knows that you would a Leaked that information which would’ve got back to the same terrorist we’re trying to kill...Drain the swamp! Impeach Nancy Pelosi 2020
Why would he consult with traitors and leakers, Democrats want him to completely fail!
Nancy cant keep secrets...why tell her.
She and Schiff would have leaked it to sabotage it
Morning_Joe Nancy and team has history of leaking Information...
I tort they have impeach present Trump.....so why is she still complaining....... jobless ppl
This whole approval from congress needs to be looked it. In this day in age it's a complete tip off to our enemy. So what are possible solutions?
Of course he did! The Democrats and liberal media would have leaked the mission!!
He's going rogue....this is very dangerous.
Throw the seal clapping hag a fish.
The face you make when drunken Nancy opens her mouth n criticizes everything our President does‼.. Never giving him credit‼ Trump2020 🇺🇸❤ 👇🏻
Nancyyyyy time to flex
Morning_Joe We all want to hear what the STRATEGY is.
Have we forgot how these things go? I don’t like him, but he has the authority to order action, and then, he submitts a report to Congress. You all got used to when Obama called leaders of Congress for the OBL strike. We don’t need to be divisive now, rather united in this, now
Consult congress? That might happen in a democracy.
But His idiot son knew days before !
The same congress that, according to Al Green, has been trying to impeach him since before he took office. Let’s face it, the relationship between congress and the executive branch is toxic. And that’s a shame. ✌🏻🤷🏻♂️🇺🇸
And our President was Successful
Trump just put our troops in great risk now. We are not prepared for this and neither are out allies, if we have any left. MoronInChief
At least Eric and his twitter followers were in the loop.
And?
NancyPelosi i’ll break it down for you so even in your constant drunken state could understand. the guy that they labeled as the head of a terrorist organization entered a war/conflict zone and was killed in that zone. thoughtsandprayers
So I wonder how Trump supporters reconcile this action with Trump's boasting of drawing down our troop levels in the Middle East. Where is the red line?
SFW? Did O consult Congress? No.
Well done President Trump!
Dictators can do what they want.
It was a recess appointment
Again?!!!!
Yea u get a short amount of timeto get this right talk and talking will be too much
Morning_Joe SpeakerPelosi Pelosi seems to think she’s the President and commander in Chief...whose going to tell her?
She was to busy playing politics in Hollywood!!
Why does SpeakerPelosi think she can be trusted with American military secrets SocialistAreEvil Time to to Kill All The Iranian Muslim Terrorist AND Let Allah Sort Them Out NoSharia ShariaKills SocialistDemocratsKill SocialistAreStupid MAGA DeportThemAll
Morning_Joe Because she would have warned them.
This needs to end. Congress has the authority to declare war; not the President. The thing is, Congress gave that power away to GW. Bush, and they don’t seem to want it back because they don’t want to take tough votes. So tired of this wimpy leadership in Congress. Do your job.
Why should he consult with a group of traders and terrorist sympathizers?
She is a joke
You mean, this swamp congress that hasn't even done it's job by passing a balanced budget in decades? Oh yeah, sure! Go to the swamp first!?!
Force bomb' Soleimani Iraq iran forcebomb
BS ....
Cant even finish a sentence
Too bad talk to Obama about bin Laden
This fool is dangerous. He will use anybody or anything to stay in power. He was scared to death to go in war as a patriot, now he wants to look ferocious by starting a war and killing an Iranian General. Really dude, with an IQ of 73?
Morning_Joe If he consulted Democrats they would of tipped off the Iranians. Democrats cannot be trusted.
All this winning!
Because you leak
He tried to call, but you were passed out drunk.
Why didn’t he just send $1.5 billon in cash? Just keep them quiet and rich, yeah? Like Obama. Why Nancy? (Because that’s exactly what weakness looks like.)
Morning_Joe The Do Nothing Dems..
Obama sent cash Trump sent the grim reaper. Go to hell Pelosi
Commander and chief👍
I’m afraid it’s too late Nancy P! He will be re-elected 2020
Get him for it.
Morning_Joe And Mr Obama ordered a similar strike that killed an American citizen within talking to congress and you sat silently ... Try the same now ma'am..
TRUMP WOULD RISK THE NATIONAL SECURITY INTERESTS OF THE USA, LIVELIHOOD OF MILITARY MEN & WOMEN IN THAT REGION, & LIVELIHOOD OF MANY IRAQIS TO AVOID HIS BEING CORNERED FOR HIS CORRUPT ACTION RE UKRAINE! AVOID IMPEACHMENT AT ANY COST TO OTHERS!
Oh no
So?
That should also be an article of impeachment I guess...who did Obama consult when he sent seal team 6 members to capture and kill Osama bin Laden? This nonsense should stop!!! Trump is doing alot to protect USA, I think what he did was presidential...
What’s her point?
Is the only way out for Trump ! To stay in power !!! Make America a warmonger great !!!
Too bad
So what. By the time the Democrats leaked the meeting the guy would be long gone.
Morning_Joe EricTrump knew about the strike, but Congress didn’t?
Pelosi is just a troublemaker
Morning_Joe Media and TheDemocrats have undermined,obstructed to weaken the executive branch since 1/20/17 ENOUGH Our country is under threat STOP your madness WTP2016 elected realDonaldTrump POTUS is CinC in charge of Executive Branch NOT 116th HouseDemocrats NOT Media
Morning_Joe Well oh my god you’re finally learning how the whole political system in America works the president United States does not have to have Congress permission to perform military action only to go to war and if he waited for you guys to make a decision more Americans would die
Pelosi made her bed, now have another martini you lush!
DonaldJTrumpJr getting it done.
Too bad, so sad! Sorry Queen Nancy...you can’t be trusted with that kind of information!
Democrats love dictatorship generals and wouldn’t allow it.
Morning_Joe Trump just does what he wants. Big tough guy when Trump or his Kids are staying home. They love AMERICA so much and love shooting. But they have the C Gene in there DNA C = COWARD. Its always the tough guy acting like a Badass.
Morning_Joe What details? Another investigation? He did it. Now what are you going to do about it.
And yet he is proud of
Wow I wonder why.. it’s not like there is a coup going on or a impeachment!!!
Does Congress have power over president? Certainly the founders intended Congress to have more important powers than the President and the Supreme Court. However they placed many checks and balances on the legislature that have prevented absolute power in the hands of one branch
Morning_Joe Always the GOP politician and mouthpiece chickenhawks Who want to send your kids to war .
I thought he said that he doesn't need to consult the Congress to do anything. Trump said that he's the president and he makes the final decisions.
realDonaldTrump as the US Commander in chief, does not need the approval of Ms Pelosi to strike a person responsible for killing Americans & freedom loving people. The secrecy of the operations were vital to the successful strikes. She should know better. God bless America.
This Congress doesn't know their ass from their elbow. Trump was right not to inform them.
Does he need to? Last guy didn't...🤔
Morning_Joe So use the 25th Amendment already then!
Do Republicans always start wars?
🤣🤣🤣
Morning_Joe Maybe, Iran will retaliate by assassinating Trump......
LDeLION Este es el verdadero enemigo en el Gobierno de Trump!!!
Morning_Joe
15 of the 19 alQaeda hijackers who staged the 911 attacks were Saudis. They took part in the plot to hijack four commercial aircrafts and crash them into New York's World Trade Center, the Pentagon and the WHouse or Congress - AND TRUMP IS ARMING THE SAUDIS TO THE HILT, RIGHT NOW
He just goes and makes rushed decisions without authority, and damn the consequences! Sick of it.
Thank God!! SpeakerPelosi HouseDemocrats would have sent more cash to Iran & offered more GI's & other Americans for slaughter
Nacy Pelosi, the first female speaker of the house, senate majority leader, and now president of the united states of america! Congrats on being head of these branches of government. Supreme court justice next?
Morning_Joe THANK GOD TRUMP IS NOT TELLING THE DEMOCRATS ABOUT HIS PLANS. DEMOCRATS LEAK LIKE SWISS CHEESE
Do you think anyone will back trump in another war
cfoxthesound Ain't that a shame!
A mafia style killing
Why would he consult with her? One of the Democrats would have leaked either the news about the upcoming strike or their “outrage” that he was ordering it over their objections.
Looks like T may have declared the first shot of WW3.
Morning_Joe so to add to his long list of accomplishments Trump can now add murderer...
She probably would have given the guy a heads up.
Morning_Joe
Good luck with that.. US Code 127 was used to carry out the Air Strike. Nancy really needs to go read it. Trump is well within His Rights and she knows this.
Morning_Joe from a post by Donald_Jailtime trumpisPlayingtheIranCard
He doesnt have to notify pelosi or congress. She knows it, congress knows it and the media knows it. It's called the Patriot Act. But it's all they have to complain about. President did a great thing tonight standing up to terrorism. Kim Jung Un is crapping his pants!
Great
Speaker Pelosi, you literally voted for the NDAA that STRIPPED this provision that would prohibit President Trump from striking Iran without consulting Congress. You could have voted 'no' and went back to the drawing board, but it wasn't important enough for you. Hypocrite.
This is no surprise ..he thinks he rules the world . Where is all the real commander in chiefs ?
Morning_Joe Didn’t want to tip Iran off.
Morning_Joe Why should our beloved POTUS?!?!
Maybe because you're insane?
If POTUS waited to consult Congress, someone would have leaked the info to Qassim Soleimani and he would be long gone.
Morning_Joe He had authority to order the strike, but the admin. is seriously out if control on multiple levels. I hope fellow Americans will take this more seriously. Trump's boxed in and playing hero and will fail badly! Its OUR GREAT SOLDIERS & cits abroad who'll suffer consequences.
You and your party evils people, go head me president Trump you are the hero
Article 2 Section 2 states that the president can engage in hostilities but not declare war. He didn't declare war: he made a military move to prevent/thwart threats. Am I missing something here?
cwebbonline He's checked off another box. We need the free press to continue its excellent investigative reporting lest our 'democracy die in darkness.'
benjaminspector The assassination of a foriegn leader is a MASSIVE violation of international law and an overt act of war. We can expect to reap a whirlwind for this crime committed to divert headlines from the emails that prove IMPOTUS personally ordered crimes against Ukraine
😴
I wouldn't trust you with U.S. military plans. They would get leaked
Morning_Joe But EricTrump knew
Is this another impeachable act?
Oh no, Iron Face Pelosi is looking for another reason! It's Obama's fault!!!!
Dear Iran, the RED voted for the guy... IJS
Nancy just making it clear that TheDemocrats and Congress had nothing to do with this lawless rogue act of war when it blows up in realDonaldTrump orange face.. When the retaliation gets a bunch of people killed.. Who will the POTUS point his finger at.. Stay Tuned its 2020!
Well why don’t you just impeach him? Hahahahahahaha!
He must go.
I'm glad he didn't tell them. They would of warned him! Ain't that right IlhanMN!?
Always love to read Democratic support for terrorists. Let’s everyone know they are America last
Tell SpeakerPelosi to go impeach herself
Morning_Joe The actions of one dementia-addled man with his finger on the biggest trigger in the world.
EnoughIsEnough
Hey Nancy.....what difference, at this point, does it make?
I don't think this woman knows what she's saying! Are you now the commander in chief? In times of emergency consultation can wait.
He called you Nancy but you didn't answer?
He is the president right 🇺🇸
thank you. Mr. President Trump. To save the Iraqis from the biggest criminals and terrorists,
He is the man of action 😂😁
Trump doesn't give a Damn about Congress. He's a Dictator just Kim Jung Un, Putin, and Adolph Hitler his Heroes.
The world is a safer place now
Congress wasn’t consulted when Obama took out Osama....
That's because democrats always take the side of foreigners over americans.
The commander was a known Muslim terrorist who got off killing Jewish people.
Probably because the Democrat controlled Congress would have said NO. Just a guess.
What was the Iranian commander doing in Iraq I'd say ID the body because Iran will try anything to kick off a war with America
Good job
Go to hell! He still the president not you! What you the Democratics brought to the Middle East by the Nuclear agreement which was signed by Obama and John Kerry is bloud, mess and crisis. America should be sorry by the consequences of invading Iraq and gifting be it to Iran!!!!
See heres the thing. Nov. 2019 Dems supported the reauthorization of the PATRIOT Act. So according to section 106 of the PATRIOT Act that the Dems reauthorized realDonaldTrump didn't have to consult Congress. Blame Congress SpeakerPelosi
Immediate martyr. I am worried about the Middle East, and I feel Trump is feeling it is a playground.
Democrats are defending IRAN Treason
The president has the right to conduct airstrikes at targets that pose a danger to america without congress
I like this approach better than sending pallets of cash...
This Nancy is such a pill! 😬🙄
What is she on Trump takes action against its enemies while she sits on her ass !! A very poisonous woman who lives in cuckoo land 😡
Yea cause killing some terrorist is not anything to laugh at. Oh wait SpeakerPelosi !
This war with Iran is highly illegal
She can shut her mouth and like it for what it is a great response to his BS at the embassy and all the other death he's caused Americans
Yeah, and what are we going to do about it. 🙄
Imagine if Iran assassinated the top U.S. Commander, what would the U.S. do? Trump might have tried to deflect people’s attention from the impeachment but he might have inadvertently started a war with Iran.
If you don't want Trump taking out terrorists protecting or people and citizens get us out of there
Shes a nobody. She mumbles through a basic press conference but wants to be in charge?
Soleimani is dead and our embassy personnel are alive! And President Trump isn’t required to ask for permission to eliminate a known foreign terrorist responsible for countless American casualties. Soleimani had the blood of hundreds of American soldiers on his hands.
Hey look i found your health care money.
God bless America
Oh shit
Mom is pissed bitch realDonaldTrump
Just like when Bill Clinton surprise bombed Iraq, in the middle of his own impeachment scandal.
WHAT--? PELOSI WANTS WHAT? LOL--PELOSIU DESERVES NOTHING-! SHE CONTROLS SCHIFF--DID U SEE THE KANANUAGH LYNCHING=?
Pelosi is not the President!! Sit down Pelosi.
Trump is a dictator and is facing two foreign challenges( Iran and Russia). Is he able to handle this without consultation of Congress . His policy using “threats” is not going to Succeed. He ultimately will create a mess for the next president to clean up the mess.
Gotta love social media and the Dems. Obama ordered airstrikes during his Presidency and nobody batted an eye. But when when Trump does it “he is trying to start WW3!” “He didn’t consult with Congress!”
Oh shut up. Trump does not need permission from that greedy witch, to protect our countries interests. Besides, Pelosi cannot even do the actual job that the Dems are really supposed to do. & when they finally do something, it’s to show the nation they are not completely useless.
Yup!! Trump2020
Because Obama never did that while he was in office 🙄
Good job President
She wants to know if she can tack on anymore bogus impeachment charges 🙄
You would be the last person POTUS would consult.
WTF are you going to do about it?
They don't want him to do the right thing so they will say anything to make him look bad. These traitors need to be arrested and jailed not drinking and tweeting 🥃🥃🥃🥃 Nancy is sloshed by noon every single day.
Her point being...what exactly?
Trump is a pathetic savage!!! This was nothing more than a distraction, because this maniac believes he can’t be removed or voted out, if we are at war!!! Y’all still sleep...
realDonaldTrump Thank you Mr. President.
Trump thinks America is Trump university!
SpeakerPelosi here’s some details, Trump has what Obama and Clinton don’t... testicles. Back to your fiddle Nancy
Why would the WH notify Congress? Why would the USA want Congress to alert/leak the raid? Pure BS. God Bless the USA. No more cowardice from the WH like with the Obama admin.
AdreanaInLB The dictator wannabe has gone off hand completely, this dangerous Russian agent trump must be removed quickly.
This, folks, violates soooo many laws not to mention the Constitution. Yet, realDonaldTrump 's supporters be like:
Someone is going to be so f¥€d
Is he required to have consultation of congress
Congress cannot be trusted. Many are compromised.
Donald Trump is the US's best and most sensible President ever!!!
Go girl slay him
Of all the fuckin things to say.
Wasn’t he impeached? What does she want from an impeached president? Did congress ask for details when Bin Laden was killed?
No f*cks given about Nancy, either.
He is reckless & dangerous putting everyone in danger what does it take to remove him?!😱😱😱😱😱
Trump is Modi of USA.
By the constitution, he doesn’t have to consult with congress. Also, war powers act everyone.
It's this the same way Obama gave Iran $150B without consulting Congress?
Screw Pelosi.
Nancy is struggling
Obama blew up wedding parties with little kids 16 children in one party REMEMBER?
And Trump Strikes again! Hits another one home for America, saving millions of people across the world! Just another reason Trump is going to win in 2020 and he is going to drain that swamp! Nancy should get out why she has a chance before she goes to jail
we are iraqi and most of us are happy for what he did
Don't need it. She was off on a bender, anyway.
Pelosi and her New Democrat party now demand that President Trump un-kill Soleimani. EmpeachFotiFi!
Yes he did the right thing
Did Obama consult Congress before taking out Bin Laden? 🤔
I am a far left liberal but I support the strike. Iran has pushed US to the corner foe far too long. If you push a lion to the car get ready to be bitten. Talk of not wanting to draw America to another war has emboldened Iran. I am ready to if the CIC makes that call.
She's not President so sit down and shut up.
Doesn’t need it.
Trump only needs approval to DECLARE WAR. Which isn’t the case. This was just an air strike (something Obama did thousands of times) and Trump does NOT need the approval of congress to do so.
Got a new article? Air strikes without permission?
Congress leaks like a sieve. They are the last to be trusted.
Yes, although the world is rid of one more murderer trump is not a king and must abide by the rules of our country. If he had legit reason it must be put forth to the American people, at least an unclassified version
Just in case
Trump absolutely does not have clue. He is so clueless until it’s unreal. A kindergartener could do a better job
一邊所谓高举所谓人权，一边肆無忌憚地殺人 這就是美國人權法 不知所謂
He doesn't consult with terrorist ie: Congress
He's not required to consult Congress on every military operation.
She should sit this one out
Why does Nancy think he should’ve let the leak crazed Democrats know he was considering lethal action against a high level target? It would’ve been on the nytimes website 5 minutes later
POTUS IS THE KING
FlipTheSenateBlue2020
How much longer is the GOP going to allow this President to run-rouge? We’re going to have to take it to the streets, aren’t we?
Palosi your endangering and embarrassing our country by going against our president on a war decision. You need to resign.
lionheartleojai Because Trumps a god damn criminal
he doesn't need to consult Congress.
Your country is just a war monger
Abuse of power?
Way to go Mr President!!!!!
So what? He can tell Congress what he did later. POTUS (Commander-In-Chief) doesn't need Congress approval for all short-term deployment actions. He has not asked for a war declaration. That would be different.
resist_3 Seems like another impeachable offense. JustSaying
our embassy, which is considered American soil, had been under attack and the president has every right to defend said embassy and he doesn't need the permission of Congress to do so.
God gave you a preacher in John Hagee. America, listen to John Hagee, your spiritual father. If you fail to listen to God's mouthpiece, your country will sink! America, don't be deceived! Return to the Lord! Say no to sin! Return to righteousness! Help your future generations!
Hey Nancy poo....we kicked his A$$.....HE is no longer with us...next stupid question...TRUMP 2020
Now we know why he didn’t tweet for 12 hrs!
ABUSE OF POWERRRRR IMPEACHHHH IMMEDIATELY AMERICANS NEED DT OUT IMMEDIATELY ABUSE OF POWER HES NOTTTT SUPPOSE TO MAKE THESE MOVES WITHOUT CONGRESS APPROVAL
Trump wanted it to be a successful strike and didn't want it leaked!
supporter ?
She's sloshed. Let her drown her sorrows and grief in peace. She's already having trouble functioning on a daily basis. 💊🍸🍷
We all knew that.
Well...
She managed to say all that in between shots of tequila? What a woman NancyPelosi
FOff!
Shut up Nancy. It’s literally not your business
She will get a briefing.
trumpthinkshecanjustdowhathewants Get him out of the WH please SpeakerPelosi
Why don't you go ask Hillary Clinton why she felt it ok to what does matter when Benghazi happened. Go after the people who should be questioned! Leave Trump alone!
Why does congress need to know? Doesn’t seem like it’s their responsibility.
Trump: 'We have an opportunity to take out a dangerous man who ordered multiple attacks on American installations, placing American lives in danger. Do you concur?' Pelosi: 'I... I would like to... what about impeachment? You... quid pro quo...' Trump: 'Never mind.' BREAKING
When the president is doing something to protect the USA, some moron like pelosi is talking in a warm safe room...send her to Iran to protect USA!
Who's Congress? The fat cat's who use rockie elected leaders to clean up after their mess. While taking millions from lobbyists who destroy the life's of American people's. How many wars did she profit from? Both sides are bad for America now.
Great !!! he did his job defending America. When are you going to start being united against those who order attacks against us.
Well, this was a few weeks after you called him an 'imposter' SpeakerPelosi ... What kind of respect would you like after that? I vote you set yourself up for this kind: None.
Add it to the list of impeachable offenses.
You TDS patients would leak it every where and compromise the mission
It is not in immediate defense of American lives, with No Declaration of War, No Relevant AUMF & No Approved by US Congress or US Senate? Sounds like the 1973 War Powers Act is finally going to get tested in a court of law! Trump is an Assassin and a Dictator BloodOnTrumpHands.
What does this woman want? What does the American Congress want? You just want Donald Trump out. You don't know what God is using him to do for America. So you don't know that Iran is the greatest enemy of America?
So what!!!
Doesn't need to 'consult' Congress. Give me a break. He didn't declare war idiots. you've been notified within 48 hours.
Pelosi’s reaction to preventing an anti-Jewish, anti-Christian & Terrorist General that has been slaughtering innocent women & children for over ten years?
LOL. President Trump didn’t need to consult congress, especially not the party of leakers.
Trump was golfing when he ordered an assassination wow 😯- this guy is completely out of order. Our President is sick - someone call a doctor!
good riddance he was a shia terrorist
He was a Terrorist not a top Iranian commander.
A Democrat led Congress gave Dubya the authority to act unilaterally did they not? Another case of the “it’s ok if it’s our guy” BS.
The commander in chief doesn't need your permission for that.
