"A Deeply Sick Man": US Lawmakers Blast Trump’s Threat to Destroy Iranian Civilization

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer described Trump as a "deeply sick individual," asserting that any Republican who fails to vote against this "war of choice" will be held personally responsible for the catastrophic consequences that follow.

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries called for immediate Congressional action to halt this "reckless" path before Trump drags the nation into World War III. Adding to the outcry, Congressman Jason Crow emphasized that calling for the annihilation of a civilization constitutes a "war crime," reminding the military that they are only bound to follow lawful orders. Congressman Jim McGovern echoed these sentiments, labeling the President’s genocide-adjacent rhetoric as "pure evil" and a direct violation of both federal and international law.
