We need that money in our own country to help our schools, Medicare and education. Don’t you care about our neighbors and communities?

Dave

That money won't help our neighbors and schools when Iranian nukes start hitting our allies and eventually us! That is their goal as they have stated for years!!

Ka San

If it even needs saying, the Military Industrial Complex is the MOST bloated budget of the entire federal budget. If our current "completely-in-over-his-head" Def Sec + idiot prez hadn't started a completely unnecessary war, we would not have depleted stores of weapons and this be on nobody's radar!

Dave

Ka San, You sound like a radical liberal. Guess you'd rather have nukes start flying around in the middle east and then closer to home in a couple years.

The Constitution vests the power in the legislative branch to ensure decisions on war are made democratically, rather than by a single person.

I agree with Max comments.

Max

It would take congress years to make a decision, and the amount of pork required would be phenomenal. Congress is dysfunctional.

Max

Most congressmen are millionaires, but our nation is nearly $40 Trillion in debt.

Max

Congress can't even pass a budget to fund the government.

Of course I am an American. I will always support my country.

Gerald Ashford

This operation is no different than any operation conducted by any president dating back to the Truman administration

VoxLesPaul

Watch the video of rejoicing Venezualans, and the wisdom of this decision is self evident. We saw the same thing when Saddam Hussein was deposed.

Fred

And how did that turn out?

Eric Smith

Absolutely! It's wonderful finally having a president who is trying to do every single thing he promised the American people in the campaign.

Max

Maduro's drug trade, is an "Act of War" against the US. The military strikes and arrest of Maduro, are Self-Defense. There will be more, and more American lives will be saved.

All crimes will end when the criminals are sent to shark infested waters. See how easy the problem can be easily solved.

If you elect a criminal who thumbs his nose at our laws, you can expect him to ignore international law as well. I can't believe in this country elected him the first time. Doing it a second time shows you how ignorant people are in our country. It's embarrassing.

Max

Biden is no longer our president. Please catch up.

Max

Trump was, and continues to be the best thing that ever happened to our nation. Three more years, hooray.

Peggy Carney

It's a act of war, Trump just wants the oil there. He is the criminal.

Max

Biden put a 25 million dollar bounty on Maduro.

Max

Maduro's drug trade is an "Act of War." You have that part correct.

Fred

Remember when we were told we would be welcomed as liberators in Iraq ... This is criminal. DON'T FORGET ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!

Fat Guy Outdoors

Was you in Iraq Fred? I was. Do you know the reaction of the people in Iraq or are you getting this from the news?

Max

Why are all of the Epstein files full of democrats? And, no pictures of Trump?
