Quote:As the predictable debate and accusations over President Donald Trump's bombing of Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday night continued to grow on Sunday, hyper-hypocritical congressional Democrats with apparently zero relevant memory called for... wait for it... Trump's impeachment. I know: YAWN.

Then something unpredictable and perhaps unprecedented happened:

An apparently rational Democrat — a former Democrat Party advisor, no less — called out his "truly TDS" riddled party, and proceeded to blast the ever-loving crap out of those calling for Trump's impeachment.

Dan Turrentine — who formerly worked as the national finance director for Hillary Clinton when she was a New York senator, and also worked for several other Democratic lawmakers, as well as for the Democratic National Committee — fired up X on Sunday and blistered his own party.

I was going to embolden various words and phrases in Turrentine's post until I read the whole thing and realized I would have had to use bold font throughout:

It was too depressing to write this last night, after we got off air, so I went to bed. But, it needs to be said by more Democrats: this was not an impeachable offense, and Trump did not need congressional approval for one precision attack under the circumstances, just as Obama did not when striking Bin Laden.

Why can’t our Party just say it’s great we achieved the objective and destroyed Iran’s nuclear sites, god bless the soldiers who carried this out and made it home safely, god bless our country, military, allies, and we look forward to a full intel briefing. . If one must then assert Congressional authority at the moment, add that any escalation will require congressional approval.

And if you must, express concern for where this may go and what might come next. But, for so many in my Party to knee jerk with unhinged calls for impeachment - and sadly omit in their statement support for Iran not having nuclear weapons, which has been a principle of our Party for 40 years -is truly TDS.

Shocking? Perhaps to some, but Turrentine appears to have at least some of the sense we saw with record numbers of Democrat crossover voters supporting Trump in the 2024 presidential election.

Given that the Democrat Party is the most hypocritical — not to mention, self-unaware — group of people on the face of the earth, and that late-stage Trump Derangement Syndrome is a terrible mental disease to behold, it's at least understandable that in the twisted minds of the left, Trump is the Devil-incarnate who can do nothing but evil.

But... you'd think, wouldn't you? — that they'd at least take into account Obama taking out Bin Laden and how they — and all of America —reacted to Bin Laden being sent to check out his 72 virgins, and react in the same manner over Trump's attack on Iran.

Nah, I'm just messing with you; the TDS-riddled left is incapable of honesty and rational thought.

Anyway, kudos to Dan Turrentine.

Although, I predict (as I'm sure you do, as well) that his words of truth will fall on deaf ears of Democrats who hate Donald Trump; not only more than they love America, but also more than they care about successfully obliterating the nuclear capabilities of radical Muslim extremists intent on destroying "the Great Satan," and Western Civilization as a whole.

Do these Dem retards in Congress not realize 75% of the country just laughs at them?

Hey, I posted that The Five needed to replace Jessica I found another Democrat with common sense (more sense than that Kenturkey representative Massey) on the show. I love seeing this joker on Jesse's show. He always has a Schiff eating smile on his face and remarkably always does give common sense rebuttals with Jesse. I think people would call him a Dino but I would call him a common sense guy, but, he's still a Demonic. LOL

Idiot democrats only know what they're told to say. Heck, 3/4 of them probably think that in an impeachment they get to throw little fuzzy fruits from Georgia at Trump.

Nope, they STILL haven't figured out why they lost the middle class.

Hakeem Jeffries Was Too Busy to Answer WH Call, Now Stomps His Feet and Demands Immediate Iran Briefing

Quote:As RedState’s Rusty Weiss reported, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt smoked CNN Monday for their false reporting that administration officials made no attempt to alert Democrat leaders in advance of Saturday night’s attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities. The problem with their narrative: Team Trump did in fact alert Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and attempt to give the heads-up to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY)—but Hakeem was too busy doing who knows what to answer his phone.

Karoline Leavitt Just Exposed CNN, Dems Over ‘Fake’ Claims Trump Failed to Brief Them Before Iran Strikes


The network was forced to issue a correction on the story. This, "The Most Trusted Name in News."

Meanwhile, the man who was unable to accept a call from the administration is now stomping his feet and demanding that someone pay attention to him. I mean, it’s Monday morning, and they didn’t drop everything immediately following Saturday night’s attack to run talk to him? The horror!

Jeffries was one of numerous Democrats who cried that Trump’s action was unlawful because he failed to seek congressional approval in advance. Of course, the reality is that if they had, Democrats would have leaked like a shattered faucet and destroyed any chance at success.

The New Yorker apparently forgot the Obama years. Does he not know that the former president sent Osama Bin Laden to an early grave in a secret operation?

"I asked for a gang of eight briefing. It has yet to occur,” the always-entitled Hakeem said, “and it's not clear to me what the administration is hiding from the Congress and from the American people. If they have a case to make, come up to Capitol Hill and make it."

Despite almost 50 years of Iranian aggression and consistent support for terrorists, along with the despotic state’s obvious desire to get its hands on a nuclear weapon and use it, Hakeem says there was “no evidence” that action was necessary:

"We've seen no evidence to date that an offensive strike of this nature was justified under the War Powers Act or the Constitution," Jeffries said.

"But the whole reason for the Trump administration to undertake that process is to come up to Capitol Hill and convince the American people and their elected representatives in the House and in the Senate. That hasn't happened."

Newsflash: many experts and even some Democrats themselves have argued that Trump had full authority to order the operation.

Trump officials have maintained that the strike was in compliance with the War Powers Act, which requires the White House to notify Congress within 48 hours of a military action and blocks that operation from continuing for more than 60 days without approval from lawmakers.

Since our military bases are currently under Iranian attack in the Middle East, Hakeem, I don’t think now is the time for them to ditch the Situation Room and run over to chat with you. I’m sure a briefing will happen in the near future—just be sure to answer your phone so you don’t miss the invite.

They called Hakeem. He didn't answer. Screw him.
