Constitution tossed in the shredder
The White House leaked Trump's recent threat to bomb Iran, stating Trump will decide “within two weeks” whether to hammer Iranian sites after new missile exchanges with Israel. Congressional leaders heard the news on television. Activists blasted phones before staffers had talking points ready. They literally learned about this from the leak, not a classified briefing, which shreds the War Powers Resolution.
Congress hears the alarm but stalls
Senator Tim Kaine and Representative Thomas Massie filed a bipartisan resolution that would force a floor vote before missiles fly. Phone lines are swamped across both chambers.
Fox News fires the propaganda cannon
Prime-time hosts looped old Israel-Iran blast footage under a “Finish the Job” chyron, called dissent “appeasement,” and never once mentioned the War Powers Act.
Oil markets party while wallets cry
After two tankers collided near the Strait of Hormuz—electronic jamming suspected—Brent crude shot past ninety-six dollars. Analysts warn a real shooting war could slam it to one-twenty. Good luck at the pump.
Fallout if missiles fly
Troops in the crosshairs – Iran-backed militias have already launched rockets at US bases whenever tension spikes.
Allies on edge – G7 foreign ministers demanded diplomacy first, warning a strike would fracture the coalition on Ukraine.
Global recession starter kit – Twenty percent of the world's oil moves through Hormuz. Block it, and grocery prices skyrocket worldwide.
Rage is rational
Unilateral war lines the pockets of defense contractors, silences constitutional checks, and buries civilians under rubble. Fox markets it as “strength” because fear sells. We have seen this movie: Baghdad, Fallujah, Kabul. Different desert, same body bags.
Four ways to slam the brakes
Flood congressional phones – No vote, no war. Keep staffers counting angry calls till midnight.
Share receipts – Pair Fox hype clips with these BlueSky threads and tanker-fire photos. Let facts torch propaganda.
Follow the money – Tag Exxon, Chevron, Boeing, and Raytheon every time oil jumps. War profiteers hate daylight.
Show up – Rally outside district offices and recruiting stations. Visible anger rattles complacent lawmakers.
