Patriot, It’s really not just a rhetorical question. Does our Congress even care about their constitutional duties? Only Congress can declare war, but they are abdicating that responsibility and letting Joe Biden and the Deep State puppeteers call the shots and push the buttons without authority. And unless Congress takes decisive action to rein in the out-of-control Biden regime, you and I could be facing nuclear war. It’s overly optimistic to think U.S. missiles can be used to attack Russia without consequences. The truth is, we are closer to nuclear war at this moment than at any time during the Cold War. We noted in a recent email the failed U.S. missile strike on Russian targets was an act of war against Russia. It was a desperate act of escalation by the Lame Duck regime. Russia struck back by hitting a weapons factory with a new nuclear-capable missile. This hypersonic missile cannot be stopped by any missile defense system. They are clearly sending a message. The neocons in the White House and the Pentagon – with lots of input from the defense contractors – are going to continue to provoke World War III unless they are stopped – and only Congress can stop them. Congress needs to send a strong message right now. Impeachment might be the only way to send that message. This is not about political retribution or deposing Joe Biden at the end of his failed presidency; it’s to prevent nuclear war. It’s about calling on Congress to uphold their constitutional duty and not hand it off to Biden, Harris, or whoever is pulling the strings behind the scenes. Read our full alert below, and if you haven’t already done so, please contact Congress right now. For Liberty, Heather D. --------------------------- From: Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty <[email protected]> Date: Thursday November 21, 2024 at 5:32 PM To: [email protected] Subject: On the brink Patriot, "The president has no constitutional authority to take this nation to
war against a nation of 70 million people unless we're attacked or unless there is proof that we are about to be attacked. And if he does . . . I
would move to impeach him." You might think that is something Ron Paul would have said. But no, it’s a quote from Joe Biden in 2007. My how the times have changed. Earlier this week, without an act of Congress, Joe Biden committed an act of war (and an impeachable offense in his own words) against Russia, the world’s largest nuclear superpower, when he gave the green light to use American-made missiles manned by American personnel to attack Russia. Ukraine can't use the missiles unless an American provides the coordinates, the intel, and “pulls the trigger.” And American soldiers don't take orders from Ukrainians. Their orders come from an American. It boils down to the fact the U.S. military carried out a missile attack against Russians on Russian soil. Russia knows this. Let that sink in. There is no overstating the recklessness with which this Lame Duck president has started a war. We are closer to nuclear extinction – which is what nuclear war will mean – than we were at any period during the Cold War. The mainstream media admits the missile attack on Russia accomplished nothing to change the direction of the war in Ukraine. Even if the missiles had hit their targets (they did not), it would not have changed the course of the war. The only purpose of this escalation was to tie the hands of Donald Trump’s incoming presidency and prevent him from negotiating a peace deal. And, of course, to keep the War Machine and the Deep State going strong. As Joe Biden himself said, this is an impeachable offense. This is the most impeachable offense: starting a war without a declaration from Congress. And this isn’t a war on a defenseless country like Iraq or Afghanistan. It’s a war with a nuclear superpower. At this rate, we are on a fast track to nuclear war. If there was ever a time to contact your congressman and senators, it’s right now. Many in Congress were more than happy to fund a proxy war without Americans directly on the battlefield. Many in Congress were more than happy to allow the White House to change the terms of the $4.7 billion “loan” to Ukraine to an outright gift. But now things have changed, and the United States is actively involved in attacking Russia. Last night, Russia hit a target in Ukraine with a nuclear-capable missile. It was a signal by Putin: This is the weapon we will destroy you with. Make no mistake. There is no such thing as a “limited” nuclear war. Once it starts, it cannot be stopped. If Russia had responded by attacking America directly – which Putin has asserted is their right – we will have a war that could go nuclear with no advance warning. The people who authorized this attack on Russia, including Biden himself, are provoking this outcome. It’s only because of restraint on Russia’s part that we aren’t there already. The American people voted for a president who said, “I don’t want this war to go on.” The American people voted for a vice president who said, “I want to shut off the money to Ukraine.” They won the election. This is what President-elect Trump said: We have never been closer to World War 3 than we are today under Joe Biden. A global conflict between nuclear-armed
powers would mean death and destruction on a scale unmatched in human history. It would be nuclear Armageddon. Nothing is more important than avoiding
that nightmare. . . Every day this proxy battle in Ukraine continues we risk global war. We must be absolutely clear that our objective is to immediately have a total cessation of hostilities. All shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need peace without delay. Right now, the Deep State is carrying out a coup against the American people. They don’t care what the American people voted for. They just attacked Russia. This is intolerable. Congress has multiple options. Every representative and every senator should be telling the White House to cease its military operations against Russia immediately. Impeachment papers should be drafted and prepared for filing. Certainly, the precedent was set four years ago, when Democrats impeached outgoing President Trump for “incitement of insurrection.” And Joe Biden concurred when he said, "The president has no constitutional
authority to take this nation to war … unless we're attacked or unless there is proof that we are about to be attacked. And if he does . . . I
would move to impeach him." But Congress has other options, too. Pentagon officials should be hauled in front of committees immediately. They should make it physically difficult for White House and Pentagon officials to continue to provoke nuclear war. And that is what the Biden regime is doing. If there was ever a time to speak out, it’s right now. Take one moment to contact your representative and senators in Washington and demand an end to this madness. For liberty, John McCardell Executive Director P.S. Joe Biden and the puppeteers are provoking a nuclear war. Congress must act IMMEDIATELY to stop this from going any further. Not tomorrow – NOW.
