Sleeping thru a nuclear catastrophe..

Republicans have been asleep for quite some time.

We could be on the verge of a nuclear war and they refuse to notice. Their Leader may have started a war he cannot stop?

It is a necessity that the Congress take back it's power to declare war. It has been proven over and over again that our trust cannot be put into the control of one man, a unitary executive. It is too dangerous.

They were sent to Washington to represent the people. They are failing at their jobs. They need to act.

Now.

They are not helpless. They choose to ignore the actions of a mad man.
