5/ I concede others may define "imminence" differently. There is room for disagreement. But my belief is that the Administration wanted to kill Soleimani for reasons other than an "imminent attack". And if that's the case, then they needed congressional approval. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ Simply "planning" an attack against the U.S. is not enough to go around Congress. It's not surprising an Iranian general was "planning" military action - we are in the middle of a escalatory cycle of provocations between the U.S. and Iran. — PolitiTweet.org

6/ Soleimani was a bad person. I don't lament his death. But it has weakened our security. It didn't deter Iran from attacking us again, it's getting us kicked out of Iraq, and it restarted Iran's nuclear program. That's exactly why something like this should come to Congress. — PolitiTweet.org
