These strikes are unconstitutional and dangerous. There’s no general authority for a president to launch airstrikes, and President Biden hasn’t claimed they were necessary to stop an imminent attack.

Biden is dropping bombs on Syria, locking kids in cages, fighting against Medicare for All in a pandemic, and lying about $2000 immediate relief checks & Democrats keep saying “empathy is in the White House.” I don’t know how they say it with a straight face—yet alone believe it.
