Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) launched a frontal assault on Trump’s decision — declaring the military action “absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment” — the New York Times provided covering fire, unleashing a barrage of skepticism about the justification for the strikes.
Reacting to the joint U.S.–Israeli operation, AOC blasted the president’s move as “a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers,” accusing him of “impulsively risk[ing] launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.” (See her statement here.)
