The Trump regime is a rogue lawless regime and must be removed from power. Immediate articles of impeachment need to be drawn. This regime needs to be held accountable for its crimes.

It is endangering the entire world. #USAirStrikes #Iran #IranBombing

The war in Iran is illegal under the UN Charter, under War Powers Act, and didn't even comply with National Security Act.

Top Dems on House and Senate Intel Committees — Jim Himes and Mark Warner, both members of Gang of Eight — were not briefed before the attacks on Iranian nuclear sites, per sources.

Also, the Trump regime appears to be actually inviting terrorist acts against the US (on US soil) in order to justify declaring martial law and suspending the midterms. #USAirStrikes #IranBombing #Iran #IsraelIran

right now bombing Iran is incredibly unpopular. i suspect the admin is betting this will inspire retaliatory terrorist attacks against Americans that will help to manufacture consent for further escalations.

The reckless actions of the Trump regime will make it MORE likely that #Iran will pursue nuclear weapons, not less. The #USAirStrikes on Iran have prompted Iran to draft legislation withdrawing it from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty #NPT.
The consequences of Trump’s insane actions, are grave.

AOC, stating this is grounds for impeachment (which it so clearly is).

#USAirStrikes #IranBombing #Iran

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez & • @AOC
The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

What’s the evidence of this “total destruction”? Because according to available evidence so far, the target sites in #Iran were not “totally destroyed”. Everything the Trump regime does, is a con job. #USAirStrikes #IranBombing

The sites that we hit in Iran were totally destroyed, and everyone knows it. Only the Fake News would say anything different in order to try and demean, as much as possible
— And even they say they were "pretty well destroyed!" Working especially hard on this falsehood is Allison Cooper of Fake News
CNN, Dumb Brian L. Roberts, Chairman of
"Con"cast, Jonny Karl of ABC Fake News, and always, the Losers of, again, Concast's NBC Fake News. It never ends with the sleazebags in the Media, and that's why their Ratings are at an ALL TIME LOW — ZERO CREDIBILITY!

Iran says it can respond in any way it wants after the U.S. bombed its nuclear sites, calling the attack outrageous and warning of lasting consequences.

Angriff auf iranische Atomanlagen: USA beteiligen sich aktiv am Nahost-Konflikt

Am 22. Juni 2025 trat die USA offiziell in den militärischen Konflikt mit dem Iran ein. #Nahostkrise #USAIran #MiddleEastConflict #USAirstrikes #NuclearTensions #Atomkonflikt #VergeltungDroht #Deeskalation #PeaceNow

Am 22. Juni 2025 trat die USA offiziell in den militärischen Konflikt mit dem Iran ein. In einer live übertragenen Ansprache verkündete US-Präsident Donald Trump, dass amerikanische Streitkräfte drei zentrale Atomanlagen im Iran, Fordo, Natanz und Isfahan, angegriffen und laut eigenen Angaben „vollständig zerstört“ hätten. Die Angriffe wurden mit Tarnkappenbombern des Typs B-2 und bunkerbrechenden Bomben (GBU-57) durchgeführt.

Mit dem Angriff wollte Washington nach eigenen Angaben verhindern, dass Teheran die Schwelle zur Atommacht überschreitet. Schon zuvor hatte es Hinweise auf eine Wiederaufnahme kritischer Urananreicherung gegeben. Die Entscheidung zum militärischen Eingreifen kam offenbar in Abstimmung mit Israel, das kurz zuvor gezielte Schläge gegen iranische Infrastruktur durchgeführt hatte. Die USA sehen ihre Aktion als „notwendigen Schritt zur globalen Sicherheit“, während Kritiker einen völkerrechtlich fragwürdigen Alleingang befürchten.

Irans Regierung reagierte umgehend und mit scharfen Worten. Außenminister Abbas Araghtschi sprach von einer „eklatanten Verletzung der UN-Charta“ und kündigte „dauerhafte Konsequenzen“ an. Noch in der Nacht kam es zu iranischen Raketenangriffen auf israelisches Territorium, bei denen mehrere Menschen verletzt wurden. Die Revolutionsgarden versetzten das Land Israel in erhöhte Alarmbereitschaft. Auch US-Stützpunkte im Irak und in Katar wurden unter verstärkten Schutz gestellt. In Teheran heulten die Sirenen, ein symbolträchtiges Zeichen für eine neue Phase des Konflikts.

Die Weltgemeinschaft zeigt sich tief besorgt. UN-Generalsekretär Antonio Guterres mahnte zur Deeskalation und forderte alle Seiten zur Rückkehr an den Verhandlungstisch auf. Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz berief umgehend das Sicherheitskabinett ein und sprach von einem „gefährlichen Wendepunkt“. Auch aus Brüssel, London, Peking und Moskau kamen eindringliche Appelle zur Zurückhaltung.

We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this.
NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
