Breaking News Update, 2/17/26: Joe Kent, Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, a Trump appointee and real live American patriot, resigned. His letter says it:
CALL YOUR MEMBER OF CONGRESS -- after you read this post -- no war and no "Save" act bills to interfere with our mid-term elections.
Full Article:
In 1992, comic George Carlin did his infamous bit "Rockets and Penises in the Persian Gulf." Have a laugh, then call your members of Congress because this war is NO JOKE.
This March 12 CNBC report, indicates there are thousands of Americans still stranded in the Middle-East, something Sen. Elizabeth Warren is pushing hard to resolve working with GOP and independent Senators.
Meanwhile, the President is pushing for a suite of onerous "voter registration" bills -- the "SAVE Act," the "SAVE America Act," and the MEGA Act (Make Elections Great Again.) So, this week Congress will divert its attention from this dangerous, and unpopular war, to the President's demand for federal interference and voter confusion. Please use the this page at Issue One to oppose this legislation HERE. (Read our note at the bottom as to why Texans, especially, don't need it.*)
We, swing voters, do not yet know our power. Call your members of Congress today! Tell them you want this war ended NOW and to vote no on the SAVE America Act. (Voter ID is fine, but that's not what this is.)
Be sure to tell them you are an independent!
Backlash on this war across the country is mounting.
This includes some in right-wing movement, including Nick Fuentes who is currently urging voters -- in the mid-terms -- to abandon Trump or to consider voting for Democrats. No kidding! There's ample evidence offered by Breaking Points (HERE March 13) that the administration is also hiding casualties, long been a practice of war hawks.
Thousands of Americans and millions of people -- and the world economy and environment -- are in harm's way. The world is watching.
Let's get on it! Don't panic, but DO contact your members of Congress.
Contact Your Senators and US Rep HERE.Urge them to pass the War Powers Resolution and to reverse course NOW!Don't believe the war dicks are running America? Read this! The remainder of this message is AI generated and are far more factual than these war clowns, documenting its claims.
Here's what we asked Gemini Google on Mach 13th:
The Escalation Ladder: From Proxy War to Global Flashpoint
The primary argument for the "World War III" comparison isn't just about the intensity of the fighting; it’s about the interconnectedness of the actors involved. Unlike previous decades, a conflict involving Israel and Iran no longer exists in a vacuum.
The Multi-Front Reality: Conflict has moved beyond the borders of Gaza and Lebanon, involving direct missile exchanges between sovereign nations and disrupting vital global shipping lanes in the Red Sea.
The Alliance Block: We are seeing the solidification of opposing blocs—the U.S. and its Western allies on one side, and a "coalition of necessity" involving Iran, Russia, and North Korea on the other. This mirrors the rigid alliance structures that turned regional disputes into world wars in the 20th century.
Economic Contagion: A full-scale war threatens to collapse global energy markets and paralyze trade, creating domestic hardships far beyond the Middle East.
The Case for the War Powers Act
In this high-stakes environment, the argument for citizen action centers on Constitutional accountability. The War Powers Act of 1973 was designed specifically to prevent "mission creep"—where the U.S. slides into a major conflict without a formal debate or a vote from the people’s representatives.Why Your Voice Matters Now:
Restoring Checks and Balances: Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution gives Congress—not the Executive Branch—the power to declare war. Using the War Powers Act forces a public floor debate on the costs, risks, and objectives of military involvement.
Preventing Unintended Escalation: Without legislative oversight, "defensive" deployments can easily become permanent combat roles. A formal vote forces the administration to define exactly what victory looks like.
Prioritizing Diplomacy: By asserting its authority, Congress can signal that the American public prefers a de-escalatory path over an open-ended regional war.
Bottom Line: History shows that the most dangerous wars are those entered by accident or through gradual escalation. By calling your Member of Congress to invoke the War Powers Act, you are demanding that the decision to risk American lives and global stability be made in the light of day, through the democratic process, rather than behind closed doors.
Key Information for Your Representative
When you call, it’s most effective to keep your request specific:
The Request: Ask them to co-sponsor or support a resolution under the War Powers Act to limit unauthorized U.S. hostilities.
The Reason: Emphasize that the risk of a regional war turning global requires a transparent, Congressionally-approved strategy.
More… The New Global Alignment
What began on February 28 as a targeted strike has metastasized. This is not a regional skirmish; it is a collision of global blocs.
Economic Warfare: With oil prices surging past $100 and threatening $200 per barrel, the "front line" is already at every American gas station and grocery store.
The Alliance Trap: As Russia provides intelligence to Tehran and China watches its energy lifelines being severed, the risk of a "horizontal escalation"—where conflict spreads to Europe or the Pacific—is at its highest since 1945.
Unprecedented Stakes: We have moved past proxy battles. We are now seeing direct attacks on U.S. bases and the disruption of 20% of the world’s energy supply.
The Constitutional Emergency
The War Powers Act of 1973 was created for exactly this moment. It was designed to ensure that the "collective judgment" of both Congress and the President applies to the introduction of U.S. forces into hostilities.
As of March 2026, the 60-day "clock" for the President to obtain a formal Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) is ticking. However, the sheer scale of the current operation—which has already cost over $11 billion in its first two weeks—demands an immediate, public floor debate.
Why You Must Call Congress Today
Members of Congress are often content to stay silent, avoiding the political risk of a "yes" or "no" vote on war. Your phone call changes that. It forces them to do their job.
When you call your Representative or Senator, your message should be simple:
Demand a Debate: Under the War Powers Act, Congress must vote to authorize these "major combat operations." Silence is an abdication of duty.
Define the Mission: What is the endgame? Is it regime change, nuclear containment, or a permanent regional presence? The American public deserves to know the "exit ramp" before the quagmire deepens.
Prevent Ground Force Escalation: While the current campaign is largely aerial, the history of the Middle East proves that "boots on the ground" are often the next step. A War Powers Resolution can explicitly bar unauthorized ground invasions.
Final Thought: We are currently witnessing the largest military mobilization of the 21st century. If we do not demand that our elected officials exercise their Constitutional authority now, we may find ourselves in a global conflict that no one voted for, but everyone must pay for.
