Back in 2016, Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) was the only sitting member of the Senate to endorse socialist Bernie Sanders for president, so there’s little doubt that Merkley is a hardcore “progressive,” with all the baggage that goes along with that: an elitism masked as a concern for ordinary folk, a supercilious contempt for America and all that this nation has stood for, and an uncritical embrace of all of the left’s most damaging delusions, fantasies, and obsessions. In the wake of President Donald Trump’s defanging of Iran’s nuclear program, however, Merkley has suddenly become a strict constructionist, a Constitutional loyalist who is outraged over Trump’s alleged violation of our founding document’s sacred principles.
There is more. Read the rest here.
Huh?!? says
Of course he is from Oregon. Of course, he sits on the side of Iran that chants death to America. It is now convenient for him to bring up his support of the founding fathers and the U.S. Constitution. A socialist with a light shade of pink.

How was Biden’s strike that took out Ayman al Zawahiri? Or Obama’s raid that took out Osama? Were those unconstitutional as well?

The Democrat ‘Malarkey’ Merkley partners with Islam’s Muslims against America, Israel, and Non-Muslims to help gain ultimate totalitarian power and control despite Islam’s hatred for Christians and Non-Muslims. Allah teaches and promotes terrorism, hatred, and violence by Muslims against Jews and Christians because infidelity, unbelief, and blasphemy are a CRIME AGAINST ALLAH(Quran 9:29; 60:4; 98:6-7; and more). Allah in Quran 5:51 says, “O you who have believed[Muslims], do not take the Jews and the Nasara(Christians) as friends. They are friends to one another. And whoever among you takes them as friends, so surely he is of them. Surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.”

The ignorance of these politicians is monumental. This war power crappola was all hashed out during the Vietnam War. The War Powers Act of 1973. It was passed even after President Nixon’s veto. Most Constitutional scholars say it is unconstitutional. The Democrats who want to use it have never taken it to court because they know they will lose. A Declaration of War is a whole different thing from a police action.

Another purveyor of the lie that Islam is not engaged in a war with the U S and the West. I don’t doubt that he believes his ignorant lies as I’ll bet he knows nothing of the history and goals of Islam. Just as there are those that can’t grasp “America First” does not mean isolationism.
Israel presented the U S with an unprecedented opportunity to contribute to the, at minimum, severe damage, if not destruction of, Iran’s nuke capabilities. The U S, the sole possessor of the ordinance and equipment to make that contribution decided to contribute. The U S contribution was in the interest of the United States. Iran being the world’s foremost exporter of terror and the implementor of the suicide bomber could not be allowed to have nuclear material with which it could harm America either as a future nuclear missile or currently dirty bombs. The mullahs are well aware they are at war with the U S and the West.
The U S deprived the death cult mullahs of any chance to hurt the U S, in any location, with nuclear material.
