Night in iraq in retaliation for general soleimanis death resulted in no u. S. Casualties and caused minimal damage. President trump announced new sanctions on iran, he called for more nato involvement in the middle east and no mention of additional u. S. Military action. He didnt rule it out and seemed to imply that hes not ratcheting things up more for now. Notably, the president sounded at times as much like candidate trump as President Trump and tou touted his own record and ripped into the Iran Nuclear Deal and pinned the blame on the Obama Administration and the Iran Nuclear Deal without any evidence for last nights attack. They chanted death to america the day the agreement was signed. Then iran went on a terrorist spree funded by the money from the deal and created hell in yemen, syria, lebanon, afghanistan and iraq. The missiles fired last night at us and our allies were paid for with the funds made available by the last administration. Just so odd to see one american presiden

This is, obviously, a very welcomed development, no matter where you might stand politically or how you view americas role in the middle east. Last night, we were staring into the abyss. Tonight, we arent. That said, if, in fact, President Trump took the offramp here, the question remains, was it from a highway that he, himself, built, with his decision to kill general soleimani. A highway he didnt need to build. The administration has yet to publicly offer evidence to support his claim that the killing stopped imminent attacks on americans. They did, officially, brief members of Congress Today behind closed doors, but from the sound of it, for some members, republican and democratic, it did not go well. Without commenting on content, my reaction to this briefing was, it was sophomoric and utterly unconvincing. And i believe more than ever, that Congress Needs to act to protect the constitutional provisions about war and peace. What can you say about the rationale for the strike on sol
Case . But first we begin with an exclusive report from nbc news about some of the 65 hours of closeddoor testimony given to the house impeachment committees by Trump Administration officials. Nbc news reports at least three current and former u. S. Officials have all made the same startling admission, a coveted white house vivid for the new ukrainian leader had been explicitly conditioned on his agreeing to investigations that could have helped President Trumps reelection. And when Gordon Sondland was asked pointblank under oath whether that constituted a quid pro quo, he did not dispute it, people with knowledge of his testimony said. Nbc news reports that, thanks to testimony like this and thanks to Public Comments from trump, his aides, and his allies, quote, a portrait is emerging of a quid pro quo that evolved over time when the president progressively upping the ante when his demands were not met. This Development Comes on the heels of a double victory in court for House Democra
