Iran Strike: AOC Launches Impeachment Assault as NYT Unleashes Skepticism
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelsein

Posted on 02/28/2026 12:30:29 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

The combined political and liberal media counteroffensive against President Trump was underway within hours of the Iran strike.

As socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) launched a frontal assault on Trump’s decision — declaring the military action “absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment” — the New York Times provided covering fire, unleashing a barrage of skepticism about the justification for the strikes.

With American forces engaged overseas, the political and media barrage began at home within hours — unrestrained even as service members moved into harm’s way.

“”””My philosophy is simple: If it pisses off the dems, then it’s the right thing to do.

President Trump did well here.”””

I can here their talking points already.
He did this to distract from Epstein.

AOC needs to be arrested for treason. Specifically, giving aid and comfort to enemies of the United States.

Somebody needs to shove a pineapple up that dizzy broad, Woke Salad Sandy’s, butt. She’s human scum. Send her back to the home of her sperm and egg donars. They never should have been allowed to bring the skank to America. She’s not the freedom and liberty type. With her it’s free stuff, money and margaritas.

The ink is not even dry on her BS impeachment demands as Trump’s “illegal war” is already over and done with.

FUAOC.

If Ocrazio-Cortex happened to be in the Middle East, and kidnapped with some other women, Isis would probably send her back.

They'd have to pay us an enormous sum to take her back (as in "The Ransom of Red Chief"). How about $40 trillion so we could wipe out our national debt?

“Leftist, not liberal.”

Same-same these days.

Old line liberalism is long dead.

“...declaring the military action “absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment...”

No, it isn’t. It’s within the duties of the POTUS to take actions like this. I guess she was absent, maybe with her brother, the day they defined the duties of her and the POTUS job description.

Impeachment would help the Republican wing of the uniparty keep the House in the midterms.

If the Democrats want to take back the House, they should put their head down, shut up, and let the namby pamby candidates running on the Republican ticket grab defeat from the jaws of victory.

AOC is not tone deaf in her world. She’s playing to her supporters as she travels along her journey for the democrat presidential nomination in ‘28.
