House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., on Friday slammed Republicans for criticizing President Biden when "we’re at war."

Hoyer, the second-highest-ranking House Democrat made the inflammatory statement while debating on the House floor, pushing back on Republicans’ pointing out Biden has "clamped down" on producing energy domestically.

"It is unfortunate that in a time of war, that we spend all the time blaming our own president," Hoyer continued. "It is unfortunate that when the Europeans put themselves over the objections of numerous administrations in a place where they had a dependence on Russia, Russia has no leverage over us."

Hoyer has been a Dim House member since 1981. Do you think he followed his own advice when either GHWBush or HWBush sent troops to Iraq?

We have not declared war on anyone since World War II.

All military actions since, such as Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Kosovo, Libya, were not declared wars.

I don’t know why we do military actions without a declaration of war . Are there skme technical legal reasons under international law why we don’t declare war?

Democrats have been at war with the American people for well over a century.

Elites in both parties would love a war with Russia to push their dream of globalism.

“I don’t know why we do military actions without a declaration of war . Are there skme technical legal reasons under international law why we don’t declare war?”

I don’t know why either but I thought at the start of the Ukraine Battle that the U.S. and Russia were going to go head to head soon enough and I thought it would have been much better to have a No fly zone along the Western and North Eastern Border of Ukraine and Protected by the USAF.

I thought that by doing that it would diffuse the situation since the Russian’s would think twice about attacking U.S. Stealth Fighters.

The Russians are like children shouting that their Military Equipment is superior to what the U.S. and the West Produce and as usual history is proving that that is false.

From where I see it the No Fly Zone would have been much cheaper and effective instead of sending 40 Billion dollars to Ukraine.

I read it was Finland next. Finland has common border with Russia, not Poland. But I do not know which country has more Nazi’s.

Even if we were at war - which we are not - that didn't stop the Democrats when Bush was President.

So screw them.

Isn’t he like 119 now? Why won’t these octogenarians ever retire? Then they can spend their remaining years (and their fortunes) with the families they profess to love and care about.

Wonder if Steny said that when Biden was screwing up the Afghanistan exit too.

The elites don’t realize the Russian Navy can stick a tactical nuke up DC’s ass anytime they want. Imagine NYC as a smoking crater. A war with nukes is EOS. Money don’t attenuate gamma radiation.

Steny Hoyer is a Domestic Enemy. Should be treated as such. Short rope, long fall!

A proxy war is NOT the same as being “at war.”

if George W Bush had a pair, he’d be speaking out loud about this crap right now.
