Donald Trump’s Iran Attack Announcement Draws Strong Reaction From Politicians
Donald Trump
Washington D.C. Reacts to Iran Attack …
Bernie, MTG and More
Published
President Donald Trump‘s announcement that the United States attacked Iran drew strong reactions from around Washington, D.C. … and, they didn’t always follow party lines.
As you know … POTUS took to social media to reveal the U.S. military dropped a “full payload” of bombs on three nuclear facilities in the Middle Eastern country.
I learned about Trump’s unconstitutional attack on Iran at a large rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Here is the response: pic.twitter.com/eziVpp3Y54

@BernieSanders
While the president called the attack a total success, outrage sparked among Democrats like Bernie Sanders — who called the action “unconstitutional” and shared a video of his supporters at a rally after he told them of the attack.
They chanted out “no more war” repeatedly in the clip … and, their outrage was palpable. Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib and Congressman Hakeem Jeffries made similar statements to Sanders — pointing out he didn’t get Congressional approval.
When faced with a clear choice between peace and violence, Iran chose violence.
That was a grave mistake.
Underestimating the resolve of the United States, the leadership of President Trump, and the unmatched strength of the most advanced military force on Earth is not just…

On the other side of the aisle, Senator Ted Cruz and Congressman Wesley Hunt showed full support for the president’s actions.
The Tucker Carlson Show
Cruz made his feelings about the conflict perfectly clear earlier this week during his contentious interview with fellow MAGA supporter Tucker Carlson … highlighting the divide in the party.
As I’ve long maintained, this was the correct move by @POTUS.
Iran is the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism and cannot have nuclear capabilities.
I’m grateful for and salute the finest military in the world. 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/YZ0pIaunff

While reactions mostly fell along party lines, there were several notable exception including Democrat Senator John Fetterman and Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene. MTG has repeatedly spoken out about the U.S. getting involved in the conflict in recent days.
While Fetterman applauded Trump for the attack, MTG simply asked her followers to “pray for peace.”
As you know … President Trump announced the attack around 5 PM PT — thanking the “great American Warriors” who carried out the strike.
Worth noting … while many members of Congress are expressing outrage they didn’t give approval for the attack, reports are now surfacing that at least Congressional leadership was aware of the attack before it happened.
The White House
President Trump addressed the nation hours after he announced the attack … serving up an ultimatum to Israel — either agree to peace or face the full might of the U.S. military.
This will almost certainly trigger the politicians already angry he didn’t get congressional approval for this military action … because, while the president is the commander-in-chief, only Congress can declare war.
Israel attacked Iran last week … and, photos of the devastation in the country have gathered international attention. Iran’s health ministry says more than 400 people have been killed — while 3,500 others have been injured in the attacks.
Rihanna
Handles Bodyguard After Door Slam Fail!!!🫣
Published
BACKGRID
Rihanna wasn’t about to stay shut out — after her bodyguard let a door hit her in the face, she fired off a perfect clapback, all caught on cam!
The singer was stepping out of NYC’s Four Seasons on Friday when a door swung straight into her face as her bodyguard strolled right on ahead — prompting her to laugh it off and clap back, “Such a gentleman you are!”
TBF, he wasn’t totally checked out — he just seemed way more focused on the pack of paps rushing in and forgot Rihanna was right behind him.
The video’s already making the rounds online — and yeah, no clue if the bodyguard’s cringing over that door-slam fail.
One thing’s clear though … Rihanna can handle herself, and no door’s bold enough to shut her down!
St. Paul Church ICE Protester
Desperate Times, Desperate Measures!!!
Published
TMZ.com
Local and federal authorities are investigating after a group of anti-ICE protesters crashed a Minnesota church service … and one of the demonstrators tells TMZ she’d still do it all over again.
Here’s the deal … the DOJ and local police are investigating after protesters interrupted a service at the Cities Church in St. Paul … which is getting major headlines because Don Lemon was in the mix live-streaming the incident.

Chauntyll Allen, leader of Black Lives Matter Twin Cities, who was among the group, tells TMZ … the jarring protest inside the church was necessary to make clear to the parishioners that having a pastor who is also an ICE official is unacceptable.
Chauntyll, who’s also a St. Paul School Board member, argues the community is being ripped apart by ICE … so the group disrupting a church service — and upsetting some parishioners — in comparison is pretty small potatoes.
TMZ.com
The protesters have been dragged by people on the Right for going inside the church … but Chauntyll tells us she doesn’t think a line was crossed … and she would do it again if given the opportunity.
As for the threats of possible criminal charges … as you can see in the video, Chauntyll couldn’t care less, and argues the feds have vastly bigger fish to fry.
We spoke to a Cities Church member who feels the complete opposite … and who welcomes authorities sending a message that this type of behavior is unacceptable. And it seems President Trump agrees … sharing a social media post that Lemon specifically should be locked away.
