Trump has launched an unnecessary, idiotic, and illegal war against Iran that puts America’s servicemembers and embassy personnel at risk. I’m calling on Congress to immediately return to vote on my War Powers Resolution that blocks war with Iran without congressional approval.

We are trying to rescue a downed American in Iran. Hegseth’s boasts about “no quarter,” “no mercy,” and axing “stupid rules of engagement” mean we have to hope that Iran follows the humanitarian laws that US leaders now dismiss. axios.com/2026/03/15/tru…

GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE  . . . Except for going into the Middle East AFTER you’ve declared it “THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE!”
Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump

The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....

Dems and R leadership in the Senate are ready to fund DHS where there is bipartisan agreement, and keep negotiating on ICE. But Trump won’t bless it, because he’d rather keep airports in chaos than open the door to commonsense reforms that protect Americans from rogue ICE agents.

Trump sending our sons and daughters to war because he still can’t accept that he lost the 2020 election! Are congressional Rs just fine with this? justthenews.com/government/sec…

Putting boots on the ground in Iran is guaranteed to make Trump’s unnecessary and unwise war—that has killed U.S. servicemembers, put tens of thousands more at risk, and spiked energy prices—even worse.reuters.com/world/middle-e…

No solid rationale or plan. US casualties mounting. Innocent civilians—even schoolchildren—killed. Energy costs for American families spiking. Allies dismayed. And . . . now he wonders why he attacked Iran to begin with? theguardian.com/world/2026/mar…

Hearing Trump call his unconstitutional and unnecessary war with Iran that has cost seven U.S. servicemembers their lives a “little excursion” makes me sick. Our sons and daughters in uniform—and their families—deserve so much better. usatoday.com/story/news/pol…

Early voting starts tomorrow for the temporary, emergency redistricting referendum that gives Virginians the chance to balance the scales that Trump and Republicans have unfairly tipped in their favor. I'm voting YES, you should too. Go to iwillvote.com for more info.

America’s future depends on fair elections. But Trump has pressured Rs across the country to tip the scales. Unlike their backroom deals—VA is putting a temporary, emergency measure to level the playing field to a vote. Starting tomorrow, you can stand for fairness and vote YES.
Barack Obama@BarackObama

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack. Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections. Now Virginia has a chance to help level the playing field. If you live in the Commonwealth, early voting begins March 6, and Election Day is on April 21. Vote YES.

Secretary Hegseth is making Scouting America drop its “Citizenship in Society” merit badge. Let that sink in. He’s all in for war, but citizenship is passe . . . thehill.com/policy/defense…

I’m heartbroken to hear a fourth servicemember has lost their life in our war against Iran. I’m praying for their family and friends.

The attack on Iran is unwise and unconstitutional. More war isn’t the answer. If it were, the past 70 years would have produced a better outcome than what we see today, writes @timkaine on.wsj.com/4ronrD3
