Radio host Charlamagne tha [g]od called out Democrats on Monday for their outrage about President Donald Trump launching strikes on Iran without congressional authority, saying they turned a blind eye when Democrats recently did the same.

The U.S. launched a surprise strike using B-2 stealth bombers on Iran’s Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear facilities on Saturday.

“All three sites sustained extremely severe damage and destruction,” Joint Chiefs Chairman Air Force Gen. Dan Caine said during a briefing at the Pentagon on Sunday morning.


Democrats like Sen. Mark Kelly, AZ, say Trump should have asked Congress, first.

Trump should have begun the process by first “coming to Congress and asking for authorization to do this,” Kelly said during a Sunday appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Speaking to co-host Morgyn V. Wood, Charlamagnesaid, “This is one of those times when politicians sound like hypocrites, because Mark Kelly is right, the president should get congressional approval. But there have been a bunch of presidents who have ordered strikes without congressional approval.”

“Barack Obama did it against Libya. Joe Biden ordered strikes in Iraq and Syria without congressional approval. Bill Clinton did it with – ‘Kosovo’ I think you pronounce it?” he said. “So presidents ordering military action without congressional approval has become pretty routine.”
