This doddering okd fool will invade the wrong country again.

The people seek treason charges for the lot of them who have done the greatest wrongs that those in government could ever do to their people.

Any other motivation from Iran's?Because, Aramco has keep doing initial public offering also known as IPO at stocks market.

No one really paid for 9/1, why don't we have Iran pay...

HEY IRAN. PEOPLE ARE SAYING IF YOU GET TRUMPS TAX RETURNS AND LOAN DOCUMENTS...MIGHTILY REWARDED. *donny says this is what everyone does for elections **ask Vlad ***no worries about treason and conspiracy, MoscowMitch is cool with it.

...without knowing all the facts. There’s the rest of your headline. You’re welcome

Of course he does. senatemajldr is a coward who is happy to see others do his dirty work to keep his big oil friends happy. A con.

Of course the TrumpStooge would

Just leave the proposal on my desk. I'll McConnell it. senatemajldr (that means I'll just let it sit on my desk for months and not do anything) I don't think you're smart enough to get sarcasm.

Let them work their sh*t out... we need to stay out.

We enable use of US oil reserve. Saudi killed journalist, have terrible human rights track. Mitch you do anything take detract attention from your lack of action. Pass gun legislation, let Saudi defend their own interest. Easy to send Soldiers when never served a day in uniform.

None of our business unless requested. PearlJam this behavior would STOP if it works. Absolutely no dependence on foreign oil. I’m sure the Saudi Government needs our help, though. Why don’t people just tell the TRUTH.

Why, does he own stock in Saudi oil ?

Let's see ... who is pushing for war..? Who doesn't want US and Iran to talk

We want consequences for American weapons used in Yemen war.

MoscowMitch

'consequences on Iran'? No, wants 'Iran to face consequences...' Where has your English gone, Reuters?

What about our support for Saudi led attacks on Yemenis using our weapons?

¿ Con qué pruebas este senador de EEUU acusa a Irán ?, con las mismas que acusaron a Irak, ninguna o falsas. MC Connell, si no presentas pruebas de inmediato, debed dimitir de tu cargo......vamos Reuters, a exigir su dimisión.

If he said that he’s lying.

I hope massacremitch stays out of it and we do too.

but no consequences on the Saudis for killing a journalist. Cool.

senatemajldr MoscowMitch how about consequences for not doing your job. UniversalBackgroundChecks

If he is for it , we should not be.

MoscowMitch MoscowMitch MoscowMitch

Hey FatOrange Is there a chance the Saudi’s bombed their own oil fields to give you the opening you needed to blame and start a war with Iran (nuclear button?🤔?) Trump’s and Kushner’s have lots of personal business with MBS so it certainly seems plausible. Sonsabitchinbastids

it is absolutely certain that it is not iran attacked saudis but israel is the most suspicious of this event

DISTRACTIONS For MoscowMitch

A hypocritical and shameless person. Panamanian frogs should go to the hospital for gallbladder surgery.

What’s in it for the Russian turtle

why?

Of course he does. So does this whole administration. What better distraction from their evil doings, but war actions. Disgraceful VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare

He wants a diversion and distraction.

Hahaha, we want consequences for Russia too. But MoscowMitchMassacre just won’t let that happen either.

first you bait .then you'll catch a fish .we have been baited for some time to the inevitable war .

Mc Connel should close his mouth ...

Great. Now do consequences for Khashogi's killers...

Is he having a stroke? Someone call 911!

I want consequences for U.S. Senate leader McConnell.

Here we go. You know who just loves war so much? Libertarians (snark)

9/11

He's awake! And still almost alive. Still 'Moscow Mitch', though. I hope he consulted Vlad.

Deport him to Iran, that'll teach them.

Iran changing its name to Gun so Mitch wants to protect them now.

Really, Moscow Mitch? You might wanna check with your handlers before you start puffing up your chest. Or, since this is an election year for you, did they give you permission to sound tough?

Now here IS a hulk.

Yet no consequences for Russian meddling in our elections, MBS dismembering Khashoggi or North Korea continuing to shoot of missiles?

It wasn't Iran that carried out the strikes

Yeah, but highlighting Russian interference and gun control is off the table.

Sure, not like it's his blood that'll be spilt.

Neocon looking for war no good

McConnell wags the dog

Oil jumps the most ever after attack cuts Saudi Arabian suppliesGlobal oil prices surged the most on record after a strike on a Saudi Arabian oil facility removed about 5% of global supplies, an attack the U.S. has blamed on Iran. Hard to believe the Saudis won't retaliate. The US is waiting on a foreign government to tell us wether to strike Iran. What a time to be alive. This is the Houthi movement slogan. In 2003, the Houthis' slogan 'God is great, death to the US, death to Israel, curse the Jews, and victory for Islam', became the group's trademark. Any American politician backing this terrorist attack should be voted out of office.

He says it quite often.
