"How Many Have to Die?" Jasmine Crockett Confronts GOP Over Iran - Velshi - MS NOW
After Trump launched strikes without congressional authorization, Crockett calls it what it is: lawlessness. In this interview, she demands Congress reclaim its constitutional authority and stop acting like spectators while lives are on the line.
Only Congress has the power to declare war. That is not a suggestion. That is the Constitution.
Crockett challenges her Republican colleagues directly: Will you stay loyal to one man, or will you stay loyal to your oath? She calls on Speaker Johnson to bring members back immediately and take up a War Powers resolution before more American lives are put at risk.
This isn’t about party. It’s about power, accountability, and whether we still believe in checks and balances.
