Abdul El-Sayed was born here. Are you saying that he is somehow less American because his parents are from somewhere else? The color of his skin? The sound of his name? All of these things have been said of earlier immigrants...and yet their children assimilated just fine. So, fuck you.
Vance: "We have to understand what happens when our nation gives in to these kinds of people, to young men with zero attachment to its land or to its history...The desire to destroy rather than the desire to build, that exact same cancer is what has corrupted Abdul El-Sayed writ large."

And your point is? That maybe Trump shouldn't have started a war of choice with Iran?
Vance: "Remember in 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine and gas prices skyrocketed. They skyrocketed, by the way, far higher than they are today...They skyrocket every time some tin pot dictator decides to throw a tantrum."

The orientation I want congress to have: productive conflict is GOOD. Dems have a real credibility gap. They need to communicate clearly to the public what they are for. Hold the regime accountable and force Trumpists to oppose popular stuff. Don't muddy the message with watered down bipartisan BS.

Instead of using American economic power to pressure the country that started this war but shows no capability of winning it, Trump is offering that country economic relief while criticizing the nation that is successfully defending itself.

Iran wasn't running out of firepower. It was holding back. Now vessels are being sunk, missile tests are accelerating, and the scale of attacks is expanding dramatically. What we're witnessing should terrify Trump's war planners.
