<p>Republicans are roasting Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) for suggesting on Saturday evening that President Donald Trump should be impeached for ordering strikes on three facilities in Iran to prevent that country from achieving nuclear weapons.</p>
<p>&#8220;The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers,&#8221; the high-profile member of the leftist &#8220;Squad&#8221; declared in a <a href="https://x.com/AOC/status/1936600627221565468" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a> on X. &#8220;He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.&#8221;</p>
<p>Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene quickly shot back at Ocasio-Cortez.</p>
<p>&#8220;Shut up you pathetic little hypocrite,&#8221; Greene <a href="https://x.com/RepMTG/status/1936615639621288028" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on X. &#8220;YOU fully supported our military and IC running the proxy war against Russia in Ukraine. And you VOTED to fund the Ukraine war under your President with dementia. You don’t get to play anti-war and moral outrage anymore.&#8221;</p>
<p>Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) <a href="https://x.com/NRCC/status/1936758140760129890" target="_blank" rel="noopener">contended</a> on Fox News that Democrats did call for impeachment after former President Barack Obama attacked Libya, Syria, Pakistan, and Yemen during his tenure.</p>
<p>&#8220;For my colleagues that are now demanding impeachment, it’s absolutely absurd &#8230; these folks are truly reaching new levels of Trump derangement in the aftermath of yesterday&#8217;s decision,&#8221; he added, alluding to what has become widely known as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/trump-derangement-syndrome" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;Trump Derangement Syndrome.&#8221;</a></p>
<p>Dan Turrentine, who worked for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton when she was serving as a Senator from New York, agreed that the action was not impeachable — and decried his Democratic colleagues who were asserting that it was.</p>
<p>&#8220;<span class="css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3">It was too depressing to write this last night, after we got off air, so I went to bed. But, it needs to be said by more Democrats: this was not an impeachable offense, and Trump did not need congressional approval for one precision attack under the circumstances, just as Obama did not when striking Bin Laden,&#8221; he posted early on Sunday. &#8220;Why can’t our Party just say it’s great we achieved the objective and destroyed Iran’s nuclear sites, God bless the soldiers who carried this out and made it home safely, God bless our country, military, allies, and we look forward to a full intel briefing</span><span class="css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3">.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><span class="css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3">&#8220;If one must then assert Congressional authority at the moment, add that any escalation will require congressional approval. And if you must, express concern for where this may go and what might come next. But, for so many in my Party to knee jerk with unhinged calls for impeachment — and sadly omit in their statement support for Iran not having nuclear weapons, which has been a principle of our Party for 40 years — is truly TDS,&#8221; he added.</span></p>

<p>During his first term, Trump was impeached twice when the Democrats commanded the House. One inquiry dealt with Ukraine, and the other with January 6. Both efforts ended in acquittal by a GOP-led Senate.</p>
<p>Some Democrats have already been <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/congressional-black-caucus-leader-impeachable-trump-los-angeles-deployment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pushing</a> for Trump to be impeached in his second administration, including for &#8220;dastardly deeds,&#8221; but they are powerless to press ahead because Republicans control both chambers of Congress. However, that could change after next year&#8217;s midterm elections, as noted by Sen. James Lankford (R-LA) during an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHXweWk6SNQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview</a> on &#8220;Fox News Sunday&#8221; with anchor Shannon Bream.</p>
<p>&#8220;If Democrats get control of Congress, we are most certainly headed towards impeachment again. That has been the playbook that they&#8217;ve played twice on President Trump. So, certainly, if they get control of Congress in this next election, they will work towards impeachment. That&#8217;s their favorite play to be able to do,&#8221; Lankford said.</p>
