WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05) issued the following statement in response to U.S. strikes against Iran.

“Today’s U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites represent strong, decisive action fully within President Trump’s constitutional authority as Commander in Chief. By targeting Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan, the Administration has significantly degraded Tehran’s nuclear capabilities and disrupted a looming threat to global security.

“This action was not taken lightly, but with resolve, responsibility, and in pursuit of a more stable and peaceful future. By reducing Iran’s capacity to develop a nuclear weapon, these strikes send a clear and unmistakable message: America will act swiftly and with precision to defend our national interests and those of our allies.

“Now is the time for Iran to reassess its path and choose negotiation over provocation. While diplomacy should always remain our preferred path, I fully support President Trump’s use of legitimate, constitutional authority to protect the United States and prevent a far greater conflict down the road.”

    US President Bone Spurs thinking to himself after the bombing, “Hello nobel peace prize!”

    Rep. Fitzgerald, proving again that he’s perfectly happy being President Trump’s lapdog, blatantly lied about the strike being “fully within President Trump’s constitutional authority as Commander in Chief” when he knows that power lies solely with Congress.

    Let’s see if Fitzy’s tune changes if Netanyahu continues to be Frump’s single source of military intelligence and he convinces our Moron-in-Chief into a greater conflict that puts American lives on the line. Frump has already made it clear that the lives of Palestinians, Ukrainiens, and Iranians don’t matter much.
