From Fox News: Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman shot down “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s call to impeach President Donald Trump for ordering airstrikes against key Iranian nuclear sites, telling Fox News that the proposal isn’t “going anywhere.”

“Of course, no [he should not be impeached],” the Keystone State Democrat said on “America’s Newsroom,” Monday.

“She knows it. I know it. We all know it… that’s not going anywhere. He’s been impeached twice, and now he’s still our president as well too, so it’s not going anywhere, and I don’t think [bringing it up is] helpful.”

Trump drew ire from many on the left and from some in his own party for launching the surprise attack known as “Operation Midnight Hammer” against Iran’s key nuclear sites without congressional approval on Saturday.


Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat Socialist, blasted Trump Saturday night after the airstrike, writing, “The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

On the same day President Trump was trying to prevent Iran from developing a deadly nuclear weapon, AOC was standing alongside Mahmoud Khalil, the anti-Israel, pro-Palestine protest organizer, and cheering his release.

Meanwhile, Fetterman is standing firmly in support of Trump’s decision to authorize the airstrikes.
