Trump’s attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro is wildly illegal, immoral and irresponsible. Just days after bombing Nigeria, the ‘Peace President’ just put the lives of millions of people at risk by bombing Venezuela and capturing their head of state with no authorization from Congress or cited evidence of legitimate threat to the United States. This should be condemned by anyone who believes in national sovereignty and domestic or international law.
A war with Venezuela would escalate violence, destabilize the region, and place U.S. servicemembers and civilians in unnecessary danger, all in service of Trump’s authoritarian ambitions.
The power to declare war belongs to Congress and the American people. Trump has once again taken power that's not his. He is attempting to drag the country into war by decree, all while treating the presidency like a throne.
Congress must act immediately to stop these illegal strikes and hold the Trump regime accountable.
No Kings, No War.

Protests are not enough. We need a #GeneralStrike.
@LevZadov @rjblaskiewicz @indivisibleteam that's an outstanding slogan for the protests, and protests are an ideal first step towards organizing a general strike
