Memo to @realDonaldTrump, @SecPompeo, and the @VP—Is this a joke? You just announced open-season for Turkish-backed fighters to attack ethnic and religious minorities in Syria. How will this 'protect' anyone from these thugs who are taking photos of their human rights violations? — PolitiTweet.org

This is one of the many terrible atrocities being carried out by Turkish-backed forces, who are committing war crimes. Trump stabbed our Syrian Kurdish allies in the back and has their blood on his hands. Shameful time for the United States. Congress must act. — PolitiTweet.org

Turkey almost killed U.S. soldiers in Syria. Not only has Trump betrayed our Syrian Kurdish allies, but by giving Turkey the green light to attack them he’s also put our own military at risk while fueling the growth of ISIS. — PolitiTweet.org

So Trump wants to end “endless wars” by deploying 2,000 troops to protect Saudi oil while he withdrew a few hundred U.S. troops who were supporting the Syrian Kurds in the fight against ISIS, leaving them open to Turkish attacks and helping ISIS terrorists rebound. Beyond crazy. — PolitiTweet.org

This is nuts. Why would Trump decide now to withdraw from a treaty giving the U.S. more flexibility to monitor Russian troop buildups? Our military, diplomatic, and intel communities should have input and Congress shouldn’t be shut out of this decision.https://t.co/9jBIx7yuNr — PolitiTweet.org
